SECTION II: INTRODUCTION
Summary
The City of Rogers operates the Rogers Animal Shelter at 2935 W. Oak in Rogers, Benton County. This
will be the initial permit for an incinerator to dispose of animal remains.
This permit will allow the installation and operation of a minor source incinerator for the disposal of Type
4 Pathological Waste (see Appendix A for waste classifications), This permit is not intended forMedical/Infectious Waste or Types 5 and 6 Non-solid and Solid Wastes. A waste incinerator is definedas a furnace or other apparatus for burning waste products.
Process Description
The Incinerator is a heavy duty high temperature controlled air design (Shenandoah Model P25-Ml) with
a primary chamber and a secondary chamber. Combustion is completed in the secondary reactionchamber. All of the air necessary for complete combustion of the waste is supplied through a controlledair system, with overfire and underfire air nozzles in the primary chamber and high''Velbcitynozzles in thesecondary chamber. Natural gas will be supplied to both the primary and secondary chambers at a ratehigh enough to bring the secondary combustion chamber up to a minimum of 1800 oF.
There are two gas burners for the primary and secondary chambers. The initial burner is rated at 335,000
Btulhr and the secondary burner is rated at 1,200,000 Btu/hr. Additional combustion energy comes fromthe Type 4 Waste, which is estimated at 1,000 Btu/lb. The burners have a blower, a motor with overloadprotection, and an automatic ignition system,
Waste is weighed to meet the lbs/hour capacity of the specific Waste Type, as recommended by themanufacturer. This incinerator is designed to handle up to 1,200 pounds of Type 4 Waste in a 10 hour day,based on batch loading twice daily.
Regulations
All minor source incinerators are subject to the Arkansas Air Pollution Control Code (Regulation 18).

I Safety cannot be ov~remph~si~ed when charging the P25. The following garments shouldbe worn when chargmg the lllcmerator: .
1. insulated gloves2. full length face shield3. full length sleeves for arm protection
Caution:
Unauthorized persons should not be in the area of the incinerator when charging is inprocess.
CONTROL SETIINGS:
The modulating linkage between the actuator, blower damper and gas valve is preset atthe factory and should need no adjustment.
The upper temperature control set point is to be set at 1800 degrees after curing is completed.
The lower temperature control indicates primary chamber temperature and cycles the lower burnerduring curing. When no cycling is required the control should be set at 2400 degrees.
Timer Settings:

Animal Waste

It may be necessary to change the timer settings depending on waste type, experience andstate regulations.
Your timer may be operated in any of the three timing ranges available on that particular timer.The timing range is changed by inserting a screw driver into the adjustment screw and rotating
it in either direction to desired timing range. There will be a slight click when the adjustmentscrew is in proper position. (See crouzet timer instruction sheet). '
THERE ARE THREE OPERATING MODES OF THE P25 INCINERATOR:(1) PREHEAT; (2) INCINERATE; AND (3) BURN-DOWN.
(1) Preheat Cycle
The P25-2GMl must be preheated 30 minutes before waste is loaded into the primary chamber.This is to prevent the waste from igniting before 1800 degrees F. can be achieved in the secondarychamber. In order to preheat to 2000 degrees F. allow 60 minutes.
Before preheating the incinerator be sure the "Power On" switch is in the ON Position.
To start the preheat cycle turn on the "preheat" momentary switch. This ignites the upper burnerand blower, which begins to preheat the secondary chamber. The fill door and ash door must be close(in order to achieve 1800 degrees during preheat.
Ash must be removed from the P25-2GM1 before starting the first burn of each day. Toremove theash, use the hoe provided to scrape the ash remaining above the grate into the ash chamber below.Remove the ash via the ash door opening with the hoe. Place all ash in a fireproof container to avoidany possibility of fire ..
PRE-HEAT SUMMARY
1. Remove ash.2. Close ash and fill doors.3. Be sure "power on" switch is on.4. Turn on "preheat" momentary switch5. Wait 30 minutes6. Load waste7. Proceed to Incinerate Cycle
(2) Incinerate Cycle
When the preheat cycle is completed, the waste is loaded and the fill door is closed turn onthe "incinerate" momentary SWitch.This activates the timers and interlock. The lower burnerwill automatically ignite 5 minutes after 1800 degrees is proven in the secondary chamber.Another timer will turn the gas off to the lower burner at a specified time depending on the typeof waste bein~ burned. Finally the incinerator will shut down at the preset time. (See page 10for timer settmgs).
The P25-2GMI may be recharged every hour. It may be necessary to adjust the interlock timeaccording t9 individual state regulations. Do not recharge if there appears to be excessiveflame when the fill door is opened. ;:
RECHARG E PROCEDURE:
1. Be certain safety precautions are taken (p. 10).2. Loosen fill door latches but do not unhook.3. Wait a few seconds to see that no flash occurs.4. Unhook door and open to full position.5. Charge waste.6. Hook and latch door. The timers are again reset.
NOTE: At times the P25 operates in an oxygen-starved condition. When this occurs,severe flames may flare out when opening the fill door. Because of this, it is very importantthat steps 1-3 are followed. '
(3) Burn-Down Cycle
The P25 requires a burn-down period to complete the incineration process. During this cycle,any waste, including liquids, that fell through the grates is burned, and it is ensured thatall ash and residue is sterilized.
Experience will dictate if the burn down time is adequate for the type waste being incinerated.If incineration is incomplete, adjust timer #2 to extend the burn down time.

GENERAL NOTES:
MIXED WASTE:
The P25 was emissions tested using red bag hospital waste with a 12,000 BTU/LB heat value.
The P25 may be recharged every hour depending on the BTU content of the waste and stateregulations.
ANIMAL WASTE:
The P25 is designed to burn a single load containing 600 pounds of animals in approximately6 hours.
The P25 was tested using small animals with a 1000 BTU/LB heat value.
The maximum capacity of the primary chamber is 600 pounds of animals .
.MAINTENANCE1
Low mainten~nce can be anticipated if owner's manual procedures are followed.
Lubricate blower motor every year with oil provided or an equivalent. Removethe blower cover (4 screws) and lubricate according to the instructions on theblower label.
A coatin~ of graphite or light ~rease (not in excess) should be maintained atthe slip fItting on the modulatmg control linkage. (See Figure 1 - ModulatingControl Linkage.)
Apply WD40, or equivalent, to the actuator and gas valve shafts occasionallyto prevent sticking. (See Figure 1 - Modulating Control Linkage.)
Replacement parts are available from the Shenandoah dealer. Only originalequipment parts should be used for repairs. '
