Subpart AA Process Unit Information for Units NOT Monitored by CEMS for All Reporting Years


The text below describes how to add a Unit or Furnace such as a chemical recovery furnace, chemical recovery combustion unit, or pulp mill lime kiln that is not monitored by a CEMS. The process to edit an existing Unit or Furnace is essentially similar.

Step 1: Adding, Modifying or Deleting Process Unit Information for Units NOT Monitored by CEMS at this Facility

Starting on the Subpart AA Overview page, click the link titled "ADD a Unit or Furnace".

To modify an existing unit or furnace, click on the Name/ID link, which is the first column in the UNIT AND FURNACE SUMMARY table.

To delete an existing unit or furnace, click on the delete icon, which appears in the last column in the UNIT AND FURNACE SUMMARY table after a unit or furnace is added.

Step 2: Indicate CEMS Utilization for a Unit

For each unit or furnace indicate that the emissions are not measured by operating and maintaining a Continuous Emissions Monitoring System (CEMS). Click either "Yes" or "No."

Note that when adding a new unit you are prompted to answer the CEMS question immediately (the answer to this question will default to “No” for units added using the “ADD a Unit” link and will default to “Yes” for units added using the “ADD a Unit Monitored by CEMS” link)

When you are finished, click NEXT.

Step 3: Enter Required Information for a Unit

For each unit or furnace within your facility, Subpart AA requires you to report the following data:

  • A unique name or identifier, plus optional description for this unit (see also About Unique Unit Names)
  • The type of unit, selected from the following:
    • Pulp mill lime kiln
    • Chemical recovery furnace
    • Chemical recovery combustion unit
  • An indication of whether the unit is monitored by CEMS

Select “pulp mill lime kiln” for lime kilns that are considered to be calciners.

When you are finished, click SAVE.
