§ 60.106 Test methods and procedures.
(a) In conducting the performance tests required in § 60.8, the owner or operator shall use as reference methods and procedures the test methods in appendix A of this part or other methods and procedures as specified in this section, except as provided in § 60.8(b).
(b) The owner or operator shall determine compliance with the particulate matter (PM) standards in § 60.102(a) as follows:
(1) The emission rate (E) of PM shall be computed for each run using the following equation:
Where:
(2) Method 5B or 5F is to be used to determine particulate matter emissions and associated moisture content from affected facilities without wet FGD systems; only Method 5B is to be used after wet FGD systems. The sampling time for each run shall be at least 60 minutes and the sampling rate shall be at least 0.015 dscm/min (0.53 dscf/min), except that shorter sampling times may be approved by the Administrator when process variables or other factors preclude sampling for at least 60 minutes.
(3) The coke burn-off rate (Rc) shall be computed for each run using the following equation:
Where:
(i) Method 2 shall be used to determine the volumetric flow rate (Qr).
(ii) The emission correction factor, integrated sampling and analysis procedure of Method 3B shall be used to determine CO2, CO, and O2 concentrations.
(4) Method 9 and the procedures of § 60.11 shall be used to determine opacity.
(c) If auxiliary liquid or solid fossil-fuels are burned in an incinerator-waste heat boiler, the owner or operator shall determine the emission rate of PM permitted in § 60.102(b) as follows:
(1) The allowable emission rate (Es) of PM shall be computed for each run using the following equation:
Where:
