Lead is the most widely used of the non-ferrous metals due to its physical, chemical, and electrical properties. The use of this material does not come without its challenges. These challenges result from the significant liability associated with the adverse environmental, health, and safety effects. The first part of this case study includes a discussion of the toxicology and the regulation of lead to demonstrate this liability. A lead-based manufacturing process at a radiator manufacturing facility was then targeted to investigate potential abatement alternatives to minimize or eliminate the impacts of lead from the facility.
A USEPA recommended control technology review and selection process, known as a Best Available Control Technology (BACT) analysis, was used to evaluate potential abatement alternatives. These alternatives included material substitution, product substitution, and add-on control devices. The BACT analysis determined that material and product substitution may be viable long-term solutions, however, were not technologically feasible at this time. Therefore, four general categories of add-on control devices, including mechanical collectors, fabric filters, wet collectors, and electrostatic precipitators, were evaluated based on the BACT screening criteria. This evaluation identified a cartridge filter system as the most stringent and economic technology available. After identifying a cartridge filter system as the most appropriate control device, a complete design was developed to fit the specific application. The design includes system specifications and financial information needed to complete the installation.
