ID NUMnrsrc tewyot:21Uc01 <br /> STANDARDIZED PERMIT NOTIFICATION FOR <br /> EXISTING HAZARDOUS WASTE FACILITIES <br /> C. Briefly describe all treatment and/or storage activities conducted at the facility. Include treatment under <br /> permit By Rule, treatment under Conditional Authorization, treatment under Conditional Exemption, and <br /> storage and/or treatment under the Standardized Permit. Annotate the description of each of the <br /> storage/treatment activities as Permit By Rule (PBR), Conditional Authorization (CA), Conditional <br /> Exemption(CE), or Standardized Permit(SP)as appropriate. Note that detailed unit-specific information <br /> forms for each unit which manages wastes generated offsite are required attachments to this notification. <br /> FX Recycling System uses an electrolytic processing method to <br /> recycle the spent fixer . The spent fixer is poured into <br /> a 300 gallon, 48" in diameter X 44" height, (we do not fill <br /> to maximum) holding tank, then pumped through a series of four <br /> cathode/anode electrolytic cylinders , made of 1 " thick <br /> cylindrical plastic and measuring 11 " in diameter X 36" in <br /> height, and is used for the removal of silver ions in suspension. <br /> It is then pumped through two ( 2) Fiberglas cylinders, 9" in <br /> diameter X 48" in height, containing resin, and is used in the <br /> removal of developer which is a result of the carry over into <br /> a fixer processor tank during normal x-ray film processing. <br /> This gives the recycled fixer that clear look, which is so <br /> important to our customers. After passing through the resins <br /> it goes directly into the 300 gallon recycled container, 48" <br /> in diameter X 44" in height. The recycled tank is attached <br /> to the circulation pump of an additional FX Unit, 91" deep X <br /> 19" wide X 21 '"" in height, for continuous recirculation. The <br /> recycled fixer is pumped into the holding tank of the unit (holds <br /> approximately 1 liter) . After it fills it is pumped into the <br /> electrolytic portion of the FX for any additional silver ions <br /> that may remain in suspension. The recycled fixer is then mixed <br /> with either fresh fixer or an additive. This is done to maintain <br /> the strength of the fixer by replenishing the oxidized chemicals. <br /> The entire system is enclosed within a barrier, 5 ' in width <br /> X 10 ' length X 21 " height. The sides of the barrier is 6" thick <br /> and sits on a 6" rebar floor. The sides of the barrier also <br /> contain steel rebars. This entire barrier is located within <br /> an additional secondary containment area. <br /> DTSC 1093 (1/93) DRAFT - January 27, 1993 �` <br />
