Fla. Admin. Code Ann. R. 62-296.705 - Phosphate Processing Operations
(1) Applicability. The emission limitations
set forth in Rule 62-296.705, F.A.C., shall apply
to all unit operations and auxiliary equipment which are an integral part of
the process used to manufacture the finished products specified in paragraphs
(a) through (f), below, including reactors, dryers, coolers, concentrators,
screens, elevators, conveyor belts, grinders, and other unit operations, which
exist as part of the manufacturing system from the point of introduction of raw
materials feed into the process to the point of discharge of the finished
product to the storage materials handling system;
(a) Diammonium phosphate (DAP);
(b) Run of pile triple super phosphate
(ROPTSP);
(c) Granular triple super
phosphate (GTSP);
(d) Normal super
phosphate (NSP);
(e) Monoammonium
phosphate (MAP);
(f) Phosphate
animal feed ingredient (AFI).
(2) Emission Limitations.
(a) No owner or operator of a phosphate
processing facility shall cause, permit or allow total emissions of particulate
matter from the affected unit operations and auxiliary equipment in excess of
0.30 pounds per ton of product or visible emissions the density of which is
greater than 20 percent opacity from the above listed operations (paragraphs
(a) through (f)).
(b) No owner or
operator of a phosphate rock dryer or phosphate rock grinding operation which
is not an integral part of the operations described in paragraphs
62-296.705(1)(a) through
(f), F.A.C., shall cause, permit or allow
total emissions of particulate matter from the dryer or grinder in excess of
0.20 lb/ton of products or visible emissions the density of which is greater
than 20 percent opacity.
(c) No
owner or operator of a concentrator which is part of a phosphate processing
facility shall cause, permit or allow total emissions of particulate matter
from the concentrator in excess of 15 pounds per hour or visible emissions the
density of which is greater than 20 percent opacity.
(d) No owner or operator of a Diammonium
Phosphate cooler producing less than 50 tons per hour of product shall cause,
permit, or allow total emissions of particulate matter in excess of 0.60 pound
per ton of product or visible emissions the density of which is greater than 20
percent opacity.
(3) Test
Methods and Procedures. All emissions tests performed pursuant to the
requirements of this rule shall comply with the following requirements.
(a) The test method for visible emissions
shall be EPA Method 9, as described at 40 C.F.R. Part 60, Appendix A-4, adopted
and incorporated by reference at Rule
62-204.800, F.A.C.
(b) The test method for particulate matter
emissions shall be EPA Method 5 or EPA Method 5A, as described at 40 C.F.R.
Part 60, Appendix A-3, adopted and incorporated by reference at Rule
62-204.800, F.A.C. The minimum
sample volume shall be 30 dry standard cubic feet.
(c) Test procedures shall meet all applicable
requirements of Chapter 62-297, F.A.C.
