62-296.503. Paper Coating  


Effective on Thursday, July 10, 2014
  • 1(1) Applicability. The emission limiting standards set forth in Rule 1162-296.503, 12F.A.C., will apply to roll, knife, or rotogravure coaters and drying ovens of paper coating lines. The following standards shall also apply to saturation operations.

    37(2) Emission Limiting Standards. No owner or operator of a paper coating line subject to Rule 5362-296.503, 54F.A.C., may cause, allow, or permit the discharge into the atmosphere of any volatile organic compounds in excess of 2.9 pounds per gallon of coating (0.35 kilograms per liter), excluding water, delivered to the coating applicator from a paper coating line.

    95(3) Control Technology. The emission limit under subsection 10362-296.503(2), 104F.A.C., shall be achieved by:

    109(a) The application of low solvent content coating technology; or,

    119(b) Incineration, provided that 90 percent of the volatile organic compounds (VOC measured as total combustible carbon) which enter the incinerator are oxidized to carbon dioxide and water.

    147(4) Test Methods and Procedures. All emissions tests performed pursuant to the requirements of this rule shall comply with the following requirements.

    169(a) Low Solvent Technology. The test method for volatile organic compounds shall be EPA Method 24, 185as described at 18840 C.F.R. Part 60, 192Appendix A-7, adopted and incorporated by reference at Rule 20162-204.800, 202F.A.C., 203or EPA 450/3-84-019, 206Procedures for Certifying Quantity of Volatile Organic Compounds Emitted by Paint, Ink, and Other Coatings (222http://www.flrules.org/Gateway/reference.asp?No=Ref-04298224), hereby adopted and incorporated by reference231.

    232(b) Add-on Control Device.

    2361. Destructive. The test method for volatile organic compounds shall be EPA Method 25, 250as described at 25340 C.F.R. Part 60, 257Appendix A-7, adopted and incorporated by reference at Rule 26662-204.800, 267F.A.C., 268or Attachment 3 of EPA 450/ 2-78-041, 275Alternate Test Method for Direct Measurement of Total Gaseous Organic Compounds Using a Flame Ionization Analyzer, adopted and 293incorporated by reference in Chapter 62-297, F.A.C.

    3002. Non-destructive. The test method for volatile organic compounds shall be VOC Capture Efficiency Test Procedures 316as described at Rule 32062-297.450, 321F.A.C. The sampling time for each capture efficiency test run shall be at least 8 hours, unless otherwise approved by the Department pursuant to Rule 34662-297.620, 347F.A.C.

    348(c) Test procedures shall meet all applicable requirements of Chapter 62-297, F.A.C.
