Designation:D739220Standard Practice forPM Detector and Bag Leak Detector Manufacturers toCertify Conformance with Design and PerformanceSpecifications for Cement Plants1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D7392;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This practice covers the procedure for certifying par-ticulate matter detectors(PMDs)and bag leak detectors(BLDs)that are used to monitor particulate matter(PM)emissions from kiln systems at Portland cement plants thatburn hazardous waste.It includes design specifications,perfor-mance specifications,test procedures,and information require-ments to ensure that these continuous monitors meet minimumrequirements,necessary in part,to monitor reliably PM con-centrations to indicate the need for inspection or correctiveaction of the types of air pollution control devices that are usedat Portland cement plants that burn hazardous waste.1.2 This practice applies specifically to the originalmanufacturer,or to those involved in the repair,remanufacture,or resale of PMDs or BLDs.1.3 This practice applies to(a)wet or dry process cementkilns equipped with electrostatic precipitators,and(b)dryprocess kilns,including pre-heater pre-calciner kiln systems,equipped with fabric filter controls.Some types of monitoringinstruments are suitable for only certain types of applications.NOTE1This practice has been developed based on careful consider-ation of the nature and variability of PM concentrations,effluentconditions,and the type,configuration,and operating characteristics of airpollution control devices used at Portland cement plants that burnhazardous waste.1.4 This practice applies to Portland cement kiln systemssubject to PM emission standards contained in 40 CFR 63,Subpart EEE.NOTE2The level of the PM emission limit is relevant to the designand selection of appropriate PMD and BLD instrumentation.The currentpromulgated PM emission standards(70 FR 59402,Oct.12,2005)are:(a)65 mg/dscm at 7%O2(0.028 gr/dscf at 7%O2)or approximately 30mg/acm(0.013 gr/acf)for“existing sources”and(b)5.3 mg/dscm at 7%O2(0.0023 gr/dscf at 7%O2)or approximately 2.5 mg/acm(0.001 gr/acf)for“new sources.”On March 23,2006(71 FR 14665),EPA proposed torevise the PM standard for new cement plants to 15.9 mg/dscm at 7%O2(0.0069 gr/dscf at 7%O2),or about 69 mg/acm(0.00260.0039 gr/acf).The emission standards may change in future rulemakings,so users of thispractice should check the current regulations.Some types of monitoringinstruments are not suitable for use over the range of emissions encoun-tered at both new and existing sources.1.5 The specifications and test procedures contained in thispractice exceed those of the United States EnvironmentalProtection Agency(USEPA).For each monitoring device thatthe manufacturer demonstrates conformance to this practice,the manufacturer may issue a certificate that states thatmonitoring device conforms with all of the applicable designand performance requirements of this practice and also meetsall applicable requirements for PMDs or BLDs at 40 CFR 63,Subpart EEE,which apply to Portland cement plants.NOTE340 CFR 63.1206(c)(8)and(9)requires that BLDs and PMDs“be certified by the manufacturer to be capable of detecting particulatematter emissions at concentrations of 1.0 milligrams per actual cubicmeter unless you demonstrate under 63.1209(g),that a higher detectionlimit would routinely detect particulate matter loadings during normaloperations.”This practice includes specific procedures for determinationand reporting of the detection limit for each PMD or BLD model.1.6 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard.No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.7 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety,health,and environmental practices and deter-mine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.1.8 This international standard was developed in accor-dance with internationally recognized principles on standard-ization established in the Decision on Principles for theDevelopment of International Standards,Guides and Recom-mendations issued by the World Trade Organization TechnicalBarriers to Trade(TBT)Committee.1This practice is under the jurisdiction ofASTM Committee D22 on Air Qualityand is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D22.03 on Ambient Atmospheresand Source Emissions.Current edition approved Sept.1,2020.Published September 2020.Originallyapproved in 2007.Last previous edition approved in 2013 as D7392 07(2013).DOI:10.1520/D7392-20.Copyright ASTM International,100 Barr Harbor Drive,PO Box C700,West Consh
