(2) An owner or operator of each
miscellaneous industrial adhesive and sealant application process using an
adhesive, sealant, adhesive primer or sealant primer subject to paragraph
(C)(1) of this rule may use add-on air pollution control equipment, in lieu of
complying with the VOC content limitations of table 1 of this rule, if such

emissions from the use of all adhesives, sealants, adhesive primers or sealant
primers subject to this rule are reduced by an overall capture and control
efficiency of at least eighty-five per cent, by weight.
(b) The combustion temperature is monitored
continuously if a thermal incinerator is operated.
(c) One of the following if a catalytic
incinerator is operated:
(i) The inlet and
exhaust gas temperatures are monitored continuously.
(ii) If an owner or operator elects to
implement an inspection and maintenance plan for the catalytic incinerator that
meets paragraph (C)(2)(f) of this rule, only the inlet gas temperature is
monitored continuously.
(d) Control device efficiency is monitored
continuously if a carbon absorber or control device other than a thermal or
catalytic incinerator is operated.
(e) Operation records sufficient to
demonstrate compliance with the requirements of this subdivision are maintained
as required by paragraph (D) of this rule.
(f) For an owner or operator that elects to
monitor the inlet temperature only of the catalytic incinerator, in accordance
with paragraph (C)(2)(c)(ii) of this rule, an inspection and maintenance plan
shall be developed, maintained on-site, and made readily available upon the
request of the appropriate Ohio EPA district office or local air agency. At a
minimum, the plan shall include the following:
(i) Annual sampling and analysis of the
catalyst activity (i.e., conversion efficiency) following the manufacturer's or
catalyst supplier's recommended procedures.
(ii) Monthly inspection of the oxidizer
system including the burner assembly and fuel supply lines for
problems.
(iii) Annual internal and
monthly external visual inspection of the catalyst bed to check for channeling,
abrasion, and settling. If problems are found, corrective action consistent
with the manufacturer's recommendations shall be implemented and a new
performance test to determine destruction efficiency in accordance with
paragraph (C) of rule 3745-21-10 of the Administrative Code shall be
conducted.
(3)
Any owner or operator of a miscellaneous industrial adhesive and sealant
application process using adhesives, sealants, adhesive primers, sealant

shall do the following:
(a) Store all
VOC-containing adhesives, adhesive primers, and process-related waste materials
in closed containers.
(b) Store all

times except when depositing or removing these materials.
(d) Minimize spills of VOC-containing
cleaning materials, adhesives, adhesive primers, and process-related waste
materials.
(e) Convey
VOC-containing cleaning materials, adhesives, adhesive primers, and
process-related waste materials from one location to another in closed
containers or pipes.
(f) Minimize
VOC emission from cleaning of application, storage, mixing, and conveying
equipment by ensuring that equipment cleaning is performed without atomizing
the cleaning solvent and all spent solvent is captured in closed
containers.

provisions of paragraphs (C)(1) to (C)(3) of this rule
shall not apply
are
not applicable to any emissions unit
that
meets the following:
where the director has
established and USEPA has approved source-specific RACT.
(a) The director has determined that
the otherwise applicable emission limitation in paragraph (C) of this rule is
technically or economically infeasible and has established an alternative
reasonably available control technology emission limitation. The alternative
limitation shall be the lowest emission limitation that the adhesives, adhesive
primers, sealants and sealant primers operation is capable of meeting by the
application of control technology that is reasonably available considering
technological and economic feasibility. The alternative limitation shall be an
emissions rate (e.g., pounds VOC per gallon) or overall per cent reduction but
shall not be in terms of mass per time (e.g., pounds per hour).
(b) A final permit-to-install or
permit-to-install and operate has been issued for the emissions unit pursuant
to Chapter 3745-31 of the Administrative Code which contains terms and
conditions that specify the control requirement or emission limitation that are
the basis for the director's alternative limitation determination for the
emissions unit, as described in paragraph (C)(4)(a) of this rule, and the
permit-to-install or permit-to- install and operate has been issued by the Ohio
EPA in a manner that makes the alternative limitation federally
enforceable.
(c) USEPA has approved the
alternative limitation as a revision to the Ohio state implementation
plan.

(1) Except as provided in paragraphs
(E)(3) to (E)(4) of this rule, the VOC and solids content of all non-aerosol
adhesives, and adhesive primers shall be determined using USEPA method 24, as
identified in 40 CFR part
60, appendix A.
(2) The organic content of exempt organic
compounds shall be determined using ASTM D4457, as applicable.
(3) The VOC content of any plastic cement
welding adhesive or primer shall be determined using SCAQMD method
316A.
(4) To determine if a diluent
is a reactive diluent, the percent of the reactive organic compound that
becomes an integral part of the finished materials shall be determined using
SCAQMD method 316A.
(5) For
adhesives that do not contain reactive diluents, pounds of VOC per gallon of
adhesive, less water and exempt compounds, shall be calculated according to the
following equation:
Pounds of VOC per gallon of adhesive = (Ws - Ww - We) / (Vm -
Vw - Ve)
Where:
Ws = weight of volatile compounds, in pounds.
Ww = weight of water, in pounds.
We = weight of exempt compounds, in pounds.
Vm = volume of material, in gallons.
Vw = volume of water, in gallons.
Ve = volume of exempt compounds, in gallons.
(6) For adhesives that contain reactive
diluents, the VOC content of the adhesive is determined after curing. The
pounds of VOC per gallon of adhesive, less water and exempt compounds, shall be
calculated according to the following equation:
Pounds of VOC per gallon of adhesive = (Wrs - Wrw - Wre) / (Vrm
- Vrw - Vre) Where:
Wrs = weight of volatile compounds not consumed during curing,
in pounds.
Wrw = weight of water not consumed during curing, in
pounds.
Wre = weight of exempt compounds not consumed during curing, in
pounds.
Vrm = volume of material not consumed during curing, in
gallons.
Vrw = volume of water not consumed during curing, in
gallons.
Vre = volume of exempt compounds not consumed during curing, in
gallons.
(7) Pounds of VOC
per gallon of material shall be calculated according to the following equation:
Pounds of VOC per gallon of material = (Ws - Ww - We) /
Vm
Where:
Ws = weight of volatile compounds, in pounds.
Ww = weight of water, in pounds.
We = weight of exempt compounds, in pounds.
Vm = volume of material, in gallons.
(8) Per cent VOC by weight shall be
calculated according to the following equation:
% VOC by weight = (Wv / W) x 100
Where:
Wv = weight of VOCs in pounds.
W = weight of material in pounds.
(9) If add-on air pollution control equipment
is used to meet this rule, the following emissions testing shall be applicable:
(a) The general provisions specified under
paragraphs (A)(2) to (A)(5) of rule 3745-21-10 of the Administrative Code shall
apply to compliance testing.
(b)
The test methods and procedures of paragraph (C) of rule 3745-21-10 of the
