Abstract:

Keystone Cement operates a cement manufacturing plant that can use certain hazardous and nonhazardous liquid wastes as a supplemental fuel for their kilns. The high temperatures and long residence times of the cement making process destroys organic constituents of the wastes and effectively binds up the inorganic constituents.

          Only certain liquid waste types with specific physical and chemical characteristics can be considered for processing at the facility. Acceptable waste materials for processing in the cement kilns include, but are not limited to: solvents, waste oil, coolants, alcohols, and off-spec fuels. Wastes can be only be accepted at the facility in tanker trucks. Also, waste streams must meet the following acceptance criteria:
        • > 8,000 BTUs/lb (surcharge below 10,000 BTUs/lb),
        • < 40 ppm PCBs,
        • < 1.5% chlorides,
        • < 8% ash,
        • < 15 % water,
        • Limits on heavy metals concentrations.

          Other surcharges will apply to wastes with characteristics or constituents that make blending or additional handling necessary.

          The generator must fill out a "Material Profile Form" and run a specific set of lab analyses on each waste stream before the facility can evaluate and accept the stream for processing.
