Performance Standards
1. Regulatory requirements limiting the concentrations of designated organic com- pounds, particulate matter, and hydrogen chloride in emissions from incinerators. 2.
New Source Performance Standards (NSPS)- Uniform national EPA air emission and water effluent standards which limit the amount of pollution allowed from new sources or from modified existing sources.

New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) - U.S. federal standards promulgated for major and minor sources on a category-category basis.
MEPS = minimum energy performance standards
methane (CH4) = a GhG; an odourless inflammable gas, formed from decaying organic matter, found in rice cultivation, domestic grazing animals, termites, landfills, coal mining, ...
Information collected, during a trial burn, on concentrations of designated organic compounds and pollutants found in incinerator emissions. Data analysis must show that the incinerator meets performance standards under operating conditions specified ...
Designated Pollutant- An air pollutant which is neither a criteria nor hazardous pollutant, as described in the Clean Air Act, but for which new source performance standards exist.
Facility in which components are replaced to such an extent that the fixed capital cost of the new components exceeds 50 percent of the capital cost of constructing a comparable brand-new facility. New-source performance standards may be applied to ...
operating conditions Conditions specified in a RCRA permit that dictate how an incinerator must operate as it burns different waste types. A trial burn is used to identify operating conditions needed to meet specified performance standards.
