4.3.1 Manual Methods: QA procedures outlined in the test methods were

followed, including equipment specifications and operation, calibrations,

sample recovery and handling, calculations and performance tolerances.

On-site quality control procedures include pre- and post-test leak checks

on the sampling system and pitot lines. If pre-test checks indicate

problems, the system is fixed and rechecked before starting testing. If

post-test leak checks are not acceptable, the test run is voided and the run

is repeated. The results of the leak checks for the test runs are on the

Field Data sheets.

Thermocouples used to measure the exhaust temperature are calibrated

in the field using EPA Alternate Method 11. A single-point calibration on

each thermocouple system using a reference thermometer is performed.

Thermocouples must agree within ±2°F with the reference thermometer.

Also, prior to use, thermocouple systems are checked for ambient

temperature before heaters are started or readings are taken. Nozzles

are inspected for nicks or dents and pitots are examined before and after

each use to confirm that they are still aligned. The results were within

allowable tolerances. Pre- and post-test calibrations on the meter boxes

are included with the report along with semi-annual calibrations of critical

orifices, pitots, nozzles, and thermocouples (sample box impinger outlet

and oven, meter box inlet and outlet, and thermocouple indicators), as

specified by ODEQ.

4.3.2 Audit Requirement: The EPA Stationary Source Audit Sample

Program was restructured and promulgated on September 30, 2010 and

was made effective 30 days after that date. The Standard requires that

the Facility or their representative order audit samples from an accredited

Provider. The EPA restructured program requires that two accredited

providers be available, and that available audit samples must be listed on

the EMC website 60 days before audits are required. The TNI website

www.nelac-institute.org/ssas/ was referred to for a list of available

accredited audit providers and audits. There are no audit samples

available for any of the test methods used in this test.

5. SOURCE DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

5.1 Process and Control Device Description and Operation:

Source Descriptions: The Doghouse, also known as Plant 2, contains

the molding, pouring, cooling and shakeout of green sand molds used for

steel castings. The area is served by four dust collectors, two of which are

new and the subject of this testing.

The green sand molds are comprised of silica sand, inorganic clay, corn

flour, dextrin and water. The molds are assembled with internal cores of

silica sand held together with phenolic-urethane binders. The molds are

brought to the Pouring Floor, where a teapot ladle is used to fill smaller

ladles, which are used to pour the hot metal into the molds. Previously the

smoke and dust from this process were uncontrolled until molds were

pushed out of the pouring loop to cool. The new Pouring Floor Dust

Collector captures emissions during the pouring process.

The molds are moved to the cooling area, which is served by an existing

dust collector. The molds are dumped onto the shakeout process, which

conveys them as they cool and as the casting separates from the broken

molds. This shakeout process is served by existing dust collection.

The final step in the shakeout process, where parts are unloaded into

boilers, was previously uncontrolled. The emissions from this process are

now captured by the new Shakeout-Unload Dust Collector. This collector

uses blowers to push dust and smoke to the dust collector inlet, as the

dust collector draws in. This push-pull mechanism captures emissions

without interfering with the unload process.

12



5.2 Test Ports: Port and traverse point locations are described and

diagrammed on the Field Data sheets.

5.2.1 Test Duct Characteristics:

Pouring Floor Dust Collector, Inlet:

Construction: Steel

Shape: Circular (slightly elliptical)

Size: 59.5 inches inside diameter

Orientation: Horizontal

Flow straighteners: None

Extension: None

Cyclonic Flow: No, the average null

angle was less than 20°

Meets EPA Method 1 Criteria: Yes

Note: PM from side port; flow from side

and top ports

Pouring Floor Dust Collector, Outlet:

Construction: Steel

Shape: Circular


Orientation: Vertical


Extension: None

Cyclonic Flow: No, the average null angle

was less than 20°


Shakeout-Unload Dust Collector, Inlet:

Construction: Steel

Shape: Circular

Size: 23 inches inside diameter



Extension: None

Cyclonic Flow: No, the average null

angle was less than 20°


Shakeout-Unload Dust Collector, Outlet:

Construction: Steel

Shape: Circular




Extension: None

Cyclonic Flow: No, the average null angle

was less than 20°


5.2.2 Cyclonic Flow Check: A check for cyclonic flow was performed on

all four exhaust vents. Null angles were measured on site, using a digital

protractor, and the calculated average angle was less than 20 degrees for

all four vents, indicating that cyclonic flow was not present..

Documentation of all these checks is included in the Appendix.

5.3 Process & Control Equipment Flow Diagram: See

Process/Sampling Equipment Flow Diagram in Appendix.

5.4 Operating Parameters: See Production/Process Data section of

Appendix.

The maximum pouring rate for the Doghouse is a 5-ton heat every 1.5

hours, but this does not account for the time molds spend cooling inside

this area controlled by the Pouring Floor Dust Collector. Pouring and

cooling requires approximately 2 hours, bring the design production rate to

2.5 TMP/hr. The production rate during testing was 2.47 TMP/hr for the

Pouring Floor Dust Collector which is greater than 90% of the design

capacity.

A normal heat can be shaken out in 45 minutes, but large side floor molds

can significantly increase the time required to shake out. This is reflected

in the design rate of 5 tons shaken out in 1.25 hours, or 4 TMP/hr. The

production rate during testing was 4.31 TMP/hr for the Shakeout-Unload

Dust Collector, which is greater than 90% of the design capacity.

5.5 Process Startups/Shutdowns or Other Operational Changes

During Tests: Occasional sampling pauses were taken between heats

with the pauses ranging from 10 minutes to less than one hour. Additional

pauses occurred during the Shakeout-Unload testing because of electrical

problems with the Shakeout process equipment. Pauses in the testing

were made on January 23 and 24 as follows:

Run 2 on January 23, 2014 between 15:52 and 16:00, and at 16:16

the run was stopped for the day;

Run 2 was resumed at 06:52 on January 24, 2014 and then paused

from 07:48 until 08:07;

Run 3 on January 24, 2014 was paused between 13:08 and 14:25.

6. SAMPLING AND ANALYTICAL PROCEDURES

6.1 Sampling Procedures:

6.1.1 Sampling and Analytical Methods: Testing was in accordance with

procedures and methods listed in the Source Test Plan dated November

26, 2013 (see Correspondence Section in the Appendix), including the

following: EPA methods in Title 40 Code of Federal Regulations Part 60

(40 CFR 60), Appendix A, July 1, 2011 and the Emission Measurement

Technical Information Center’s website, Test Methods Section

(www.epa.gov/ttn/emc); Oregon Department of Environmental Quality

(ODEQ) methods in Source Sampling Manual Volume 1, January, 1992.

Flow Rate: EPA Methods 1 and 2 (S-type pitot w/ isokinetic

traverses)

CO2 and O2: Assume ambient molecular weight 28.96

Moisture: EPA Method 4 (incorporated w/ isokinetic sampling

method)

PM: ODEQ Method 5 (filterable and condensable PM;

isokinetic impinger train technique)

6.1.2 Allowed Variances to Methods: The following requests for

clarification of or variances from specified test methods were approved by

ODEQ prior to test, by email correspondence dated Dec 3, 2013, with

documentation in the Correspondence section of the report.

For the Pouring Floor Dust Collector Inlet, the horizontal duct was

approved for PM testing from one port (side).

ODEQ also approved the test plan proposal to not pause the runs

between heats unless there was an unusually long duration between

heats.

20


http://www.epa.gov/ttn/emc


6.1.3 Sampling Notes:

In accordance with Permit Condition 49.d. one test run for PM on both

Dust Collector inlets was done at the same time as the outlet PM source

test.

For the single run on the Pouring Floor Dust Collector Inlet, PM and flow

were measured from a single port, as mentioned in Section 6.1.2 above.

In addition, flow traverses of both ports were done twice during the run

and the average of all three flow rates was used for the PM emission rate

calculations.

Each run for both sources was sampled over all of the heats completed by

ESCO for that particular day for that particular operation. For the Pouring

Floor operation, sampling was through three heats and the run durations

ranged from 6.0 hours to 4.4 hours. The Shakeout-Unload operation was

sampled during shakeout of three heats. Run durations ranged from 4.5

to 2.5 hours because shaking out a heat is typically faster than pouring

and cooling a heat, however this depends on the types of molds poured.

QA/QC Documentation Procedures

Quality Assurance/Quality Control

Introduction The QA procedures outlined in the U. S. Environmental Protection

Agency (EPA) test methods are followed, including procedures, equipment

specifications, calibrations, sample extraction and handling, calculations, and

performance tolerances. Many of the checks performed have been cited in the

Sampling section of the report text. The results of those checks are on the

applicable field data sheets in the Appendix.

Continuous Analyzer Methods Field crews operate the continuous analyzers

according to the test method requirements, and Horizon's additional

specifications. On site quality control procedures include:

Analyzer calibration error before initial run and after a failed system

bias or drift test (within ± 2.0% of the calibration span of the analyzer

for the low, mid, and high-level gases or 0.5 ppmv absolute difference)

System bias at low-scale (zero) and upscale calibration gases (within ±

5.0% of the calibration span or 0.5 ppmv absolute difference)

Drift check (within ±3.0% of calibration span for low, and mid or high-

level gases, or 0.5 ppmv absolute difference)

System response time (during initial sampling system bias test)

Checks performed with EPA Protocol 1 or NIST traceable gases

Leak free sampling system

Data acquisition systems record 10-second data points or one-minute

averages of one second readings

NO2 to NO conversion efficiency (before each test)

Purge time (≥ 2 times system response time and will be done before

starting run 1, whenever the gas probe is removed and re-inserted into

the stack, and after bias checks)

Sample time (at least two times the system response time at each

sample point)

Sample flow rate (within approximately 10% of the flow rate

established during system response time check)

Interference checks for analyzers used will be included in the final test

report

Average concentration (run average ≤ calibration span for each run)

Stratification test (to be done during run 1 at three(3) or twelve(12)

points according to EPA Method 7E; Method 3A, if done for molecular

weight only, will be sampled near the centroid of the exhaust;

stratification is check not normally applicable for RATAs)

139



Manual Equipment QC Procedures On site quality control procedures include

pre- and post-test leak checks on trains and pitot systems. If pre-test checks

indicate problems, the system is fixed and rechecked before starting testing. If

post-test leak checks are not acceptable, the test run is voided and the run is

repeated. Thermocouples and readouts are verified in the field to read ambient

prior to the start of any heating or cooling devices.

Sample Handling Samples taken during testing are handled to prevent

contamination from other runs and ambient conditions. Sample containers are

glass, Teflon, or polystyrene (filter petri dishes) and are pre-cleaned by the

laboratory and in the Horizon Engineering shop. Sample levels are marked on

containers and are verified by the laboratory. All particulate sample containers

are kept upright and are delivered to the laboratory by Horizon personnel.

Data Processing Personnel performing data processing double-check that

data entry and calculations are correct. Results include corrections for field

blanks and analyzer drift. Any abnormal values are verified with testing

personnel and the laboratory, if necessary.

After results are obtained, the data processing supervisor validates the data with

the following actions:

verify data entry

check for variability within replicate runs

account for variability that is not within performance goals (check the

method, testing, and operation of the plant)

verify field quality checks

Equipment Calibrations Periodic calibrations are performed on each piece of

measurement equipment according to manufacturers’ specifications and

applicable test method requirements. The Oregon Department of Environmental

Quality (ODEQ) Source Testing Calibration Requirements sheet is used as a

guideline. Calibrations are performed using primary standard references and

calibration curves where applicable.

Dry Gas Meters Dry gas meters used in the manual sampling trains are

calibrated at three rates using a standard dry gas meter that is never taken into

the field. The standard meter is calibration verified by the Northwest Natural Gas

meter shop once every year. Dry gas meters are post-test calibrated with

documentation provided in test reports.

140



Thermocouples Sample box oven and impinger outlet thermocouples are

calibration checked against an NIST traceable thermocouple and indicator

system every six months at three points. Thermocouple indicators and

temperature controllers are checked using a NIST traceable signal generator.

Readouts are checked over their usable range and are adjusted if necessary

(which is very unusual). Probe thermocouples are calibrated in the field using

the ALT-011 alternate Method 2 calibration procedure, which is documented on

the field data sheet for the first run the probe thermocouple was used.

Pitots Every six months, S-type pitots are calibrated in a wind tunnel at three

points against a standard pitot using inclined manometers. They are examined

for dents and distortion to the alignment, angles, lengths, and proximity to

thermocouples before each test. Pitots are protected with covers during storage

and handling until they are ready to be inserted in the sample ports.

Nozzles Stainless steel nozzles are calibrated twice each year by checking for

nicks or dents and making diameter measurements in triplicate. Quartz and

borosilicate glass nozzles (and often stainless steel nozzles) are commonly

calibrated in the field by taking the average of three consecutive diameter

measurements. These field calibrations are recorded on the field data sheet for

the first run the nozzle was used.
