<br />combustion chamber and the primsergy recoverysection(s) (such as waterfalls aerheaters) must be physically formed
<br />into one manufactured or assembled unit A unit in which the combustion chamber and primary energy recovery section(s) are
<br />joined only by ducts or connections carrying flue gas is not integrally designed; however, secondary energy recovery equipment (such
<br />as economizers or air preheaters) need not be physically formed into the same unit as the combustion chamber and the primary
<br />energy recovery section. The following units are not precluded from being boilers solely because they are not of integral design:
<br />118, process heaters (units that transfer energy directly to a process stream), and fluidized bed combustion units; and
<br />(3) while in operation, the unit must maintain a thermal energy recovery efficiency of at least 60 percent, calculated in terms of the
<br />recovered energy compared with the thermal value of the fuel; and
<br />(4) the unit must export and utilize at least 75 percent of the recovered energy, calculated on an annual basis. In this calculation, no
<br />credit shall be given for recovered heat used internally in the same unit. (Examples of internal use are the preheating of fuel or
<br />combustion air, and the driving of induced or forced draft fans or feedwater pumps); or
<br />(b) the unit is one which the USEPA Regional Administrator has determined, on a case-by-case basis, to be a boiler, after considering
<br />the standards in 40 CFR section 260.32.

<br />"Carbon regeneration unit" means any enclosed thermal treatment device used to regenerate spent activated carbon.
<br />"Cargo tank" means any tank permanently attached to, or a structural part of, a vehicle; or any bulk liquid or compressed gas packaging
<br />that is not permanently attached to a vehicle and by reason of its size, construction or method of attachment
