Development Document for Effluent Limitations Guidelines and New Source Performance Standards for the Fabricated and Reclaimed Rubber Segment of the Rubber Processing Point Source Category.

摘要

This document presents the findings of an extensive study of the rubber processing industry to develop effluent limitations guidelines,Federal standards of performance,and pretreatment standards for the industry. The development of data and recommendations in the document relate to the overall rubber processing industry which is divided into four major segments:general molded,extruded and fabricated rubber products,wet digester rubber reclaiming,pan (heater),mechanical and dry digestion rubber reclaiming and latex-based products. Supportive data and the rationale for development of the effluent limitations guidelines and standards of performance are contained in this report. Wastes,control technology,and costs are discussed.
