W52: Replaced 5,300 gallon bulk hazardous waste storage tank with a new, 14,000 gallon tank. The gasket/seal at the rupture disk on the emergency vent system of the old tank was sometimes leaking after a waste offload. The leak rate was monitored after waste offloads, and the rupture disk was being replaced, as needed. The new hazardous waste bulk storage tank has resulted in a reduction of fugitive emissions. Other Environmental Practices: General Environmental Management - Waste system components and bulk hazardous waste tank are monitored monthly for leaks using a flame ionization detector (FID). Chemical/process system components and bulk ACN tank are monitored quarterly for leaks using the FID. Incident investigations are conducted for all spills/releases involving chemicals to decrease the potential for a reoccurrence. Inspections of the bulk hazardous waste system and bulk ACN system are conducted daily. RCRA satellite accumulation areas and 90-day accumulation areas are inspected weekly. Identified leaks are repaired. Other Environmental Practices: Energy Recovery - Bulk organic hazardous waste, solid hazardous waste, and drummed organic waste is sent off-site for energy recovery. |
