Tentative Amendment No. "A" Tentative Amendment No. "A" to the Standard Manufacturing Process for Aroclor (Dept. 246, WGK) dated 7/20/64. Objective: Alter present plant distillation system and operations for a plant test. Plant test will indicate equipment needs and ability to produce improved quality (stable) Aroclor. Present Practice: Two Aroclor Di stillation Systems are run in parallel. The two systems are continuous ly fed crude Aroclor from the #2 Blow Tank. The distillation is a straight take-over operation. When a run of one type (1242, 1248, etc.) is completed (80, 000-500, 000#) a final boil down is conducted in No. 2 still and the bottoms are dropped. The boil down material is combined with the previously distilled material and pro cessed to finished product. The bottoms are drawn off and sold as Montar or discarded Following the boil down and bottom's drop the stills are ready for the next product run. Proposed Procedure: Run the two stills in series. Continuously feed the No. 1 still with crude Aroclor and use this system to pre-heat the entire feed and to distill off a low-boiler fraction (up to 10% of feed). Continously feed the No. 2 still from No. 1 still pot. Collect the intermediate fraction in No. 2 receiver and process as in normal operation. At the end of the run (4-5 days) boil down and drop bottoms. Do not combine the boil down (high-boiler s) with the intermediate fraction. The low boiler s from No. 1 receiver and the high boilers from the boil-down will be isolated in a storage tank, if possible. COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL TRAN 009193 WATER PCB-SD0000019423 Tentative Amendment "A' Z- - March 10, 1965 If they pass non-electrical Aroclor apecifications, they can be used as such. If the total amount has to be discarded because no storage is available, or because t hey are out of specification, the cost would be $3, 000 based on total product costs. Specific operating conditions for the stills will have to be determine d in the field by cut and try methods. Justification: Foreign competition appears to be capable of producing Aroclor which is more stable than that presently made by Monsanto. An improvement of product stability is necessary to protect our market position. laboratory data* indicates that the distillation operation ha s a significant effect on product stability. These data indicate that product stability can be improved by: 1. Removing an unstable low-boil fraction Z. Preventing entrainment 3. Preventing contamination by high-boilers or bbil down This test will evaluate our ability to control the plant distillation in the three areas mentioned above,, with existing equipment. Failure of the test will indicate that more drastic revisions to the existing equipment will be needed to approximate laboratory conditions. Comments:' The production rate will be limi-ted by maximum vapor and heat loads that can be sustained in the entrainment and condenser systems on N, Z still. In the past 55, 000#/day have been attained in these systems. The upper limit is not presently known. Duration: The test duration will be 4-5 days. If desired operation conditions cannot be obtained during this interval the test will be cancelled or revised. Prepared by: COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL Qvi ujJJJz. D. R.

OBJECTIVE: . Run two plant tests using revaporized CI2 and dilute (25 mole %) Cl*, as feed stock for Aroclor 1242 production, PRESENT PRACTICE: i The Dept. 246 Chlorinators are batch charged with biphenyl (Bi0). The Bi0 is then chlorinated by continuously feeding "Snift" gas to the chlorinator mass until the desired specific gravity is reached. The "Snift" Gas is a mixture of Cl2 (from DeNora 6c Hooker Cells) H2, N2, 02, C02 and trace amounts Of organic impurities. The Cl2 concentration is in the range of 75 - 95 mole % and varies with operations in the Cl2 depart ments . PROPOSED PRACTICE (Two Plant Tests, 1242 Aroclor) 1 . A plant chlorination test will be run using re vaporized Cl2 from Dept. 232 as the Cl2 feed stock, Due to limited capacity of the revaporizing facilities in Dept. 232, we will probably be able to run only two chlorinators at a time, making a total of 5 - 6 chlor- inator batches and processing through the remainder of the system as normal. Necessary samples and measurements will be taken to determine effect of concentrated and impurity free Cl2 on Aro clor stability. This material will be treated as normal production as it passes the routine plant controls. 2, A plant chlorination test will be run using revaporized Cl2 diluted to 25 mole % with dry air as Cl2 feed stock. This test will be limited to 2 chlorinators due to dry air capacity, making a total of 5-6 chlorinator batches and processing through the remainder of the system as normal. Necessary samples and mea surements will, be taken to determine effect of dilute and impurity free Cl2 on Aro clor stability. This material will be segregated from normal electri cal grade 1242 Aroclor, It will be used Sox non-clectrical 1242 if it passes specification.

Tentative Amendment No. __ C TITLE: Tentative Amendment No. C to the Standard Manufacturing Process (Dept. 246, WGK) dated 7/20/64. OBJECTIVE: Run plant te6t using chlorinator without catalyst basket, PRESENT PRACTICE: The Dept. 2 46 batch chlorinators (31 diam, x 16' high) are batch charged with biphenyl, which is chlorinated with snift gas. At the present, each chlorinator has a catalyst bed. The catalyst bed is 2'3" in diam, and 81 high and consists of 1 1/2" pipe nipples, 2" long. PROPOSED PROCESS (1242 and 1260 Aroclor) Remove the catalyst bed from one chlorinator and run three to five 1242 and three to five 1260 batches in that chlorinator following standard operat ing procedures, except without the catalyst bed. The test material will be kept separate from other production and will be used only if it is equivalent to normal production aroclor, according to routine analyse 6, Du ring the test batches the chlorinator off-gas will be sampled and analyzed for chlorine,, to check chlorine utilization of the chlorinators without the bed. The purpose of the catalyst bed is to provide iron, which is chlorinated to ferric chloride, the reaction catalyst. It is standard operating procedure to charge 0. 05% by weight ferric chloride to each batch, Ferric chloride will, of course, be added to the test bate he s. JUSTIFICATION: During operation the catalyst becomes plugged with tars and ferric chloride and it is probable that only a small portion of the iron of the bed is available for utilization. Also, the plugged bed hinders chlorinator circulation and probably leads to hot spots in the chlorinator. There is a problem of cross contamination from batch to batch with the hed-^ which-results in an excessive amount of overchlorinated products , COMPANY "an 009198 CONFIDENTIAL WATER PCB-SD0000019428 Tentative Amendment C 2 JUSTIFICATIONS (Cont'd.) During 1 956 there were levere problem6 with aroclor stability, One of the problems wa s a lack of a consistent analytical method for checking stability. Previous to that time the catalyst bed was relied upon to supply ferric chloride and ferric chloride, per se, was not added. One of the results of the stability problem was the addition of ferric chloride to each chlorinator batch, to allure that sufficient catalyst was available. Since that time analytical methods have improved and any unstable aroclor produced would be detected immediately. The removal of the catalyst bed, then, improves chlorinator operation by increased circulation, elimination of hot spots, and prevention of contamina tion, The addition of ferric chloride provides sufficient catalyst, Any unstable aroclor produced would be detected immediately by the present routine analyses. SUPPORTING DATA: It is reported in St. Louis Research Report Nos. 1640 and 2072 that a minimum level of 0. 03% FeCls is necessary to produce stable aroclor. No mention is made of the need for iron, and none wa6 used in the lab chlorinators. SAFETY: No increase in safety hazards is anticipated. QUALITY: Work is in progress to improve aroclor quality (stability). It is anticipated that the removal of the basket will not harm quality but, if anything, will improve it due to improved circulation,, elimination of hot spots in the chlorinators, and elimination of cross-contamination from batch to batch. DURATION OF TEST Three to five 1242 and three to five 1260 batches will be made without the catalyst bed. If this material i6 equivalent to normal production material, according to routine analyses, the chlorinator without the catalyst bed will be used for normal operations, and this amendment incorporated as a process revision. If the test material is not equivalent to normal production the bed will be replaced. COMPANY TRAN 009199 WATER PCB-SD0000019429 Tentative Amendment No, C 3 COMMENTS: This plant test would normally involve some loss of production. The pre sent aroclor stock position is such that it is anticipated that it will be nec essary to run only three of the five chlorinators during September. Also, some repair s to be made dur ing September will require removal of the catalyst bed from the No. 3 chlorinator, September, then, is an ideal time to run this test. Prepared by: W. C.

Tentative Amendment No. "D" Title: Tentative Amendment No, "D" to the Standard Manufacturing Process for Aroclor (Dept. 246, WGK) dated 7/20/64. Objective: Evaluate potassium carbonate as a replacement for lime in the Aroclor distillation system. Present Practice: Aroclor is distilled in two parallel Bystems, continuously fed from the No. 2 blow tank. At the start of a run (1242, 1248, etc. ) 200 lbs. of lime (calcium hydroxide) is added to each still pot. At the end of a run (250,000-500,000 lbs.) bottoms are dropped and the cycle is repeated. Proposed Procedure: Segregate the two distillation systems at the start of a 1242 run. To one system, add the normal amount of lime to the still pot and proceed normally throughout the run. To the second system, substi tute 200 pounds of anhydrous potassium carbonate for the lime. Dis till away from the potassium carbonate for a minimum of two days. The product distilled from the potassium carbonate will be analyzed by routine tests before it is combined with normal production , material. ' adverse *ay, '-'it will b gyade/ . COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL 009201 WATER PCB-SD0000019431 Tentative Amendment "D" 2 October 20, 19G5 Justification: The presence of a base during distillation serves two known purposes: It neutralizes free acid, and it reacts with the FeCla present. It is also thought that the base can react with some unstable Aroclors, converting them to a more stable form. Recent WGK PRfcD laboratory data indicates that distillation from KgCOs increases the stability of the high boiling fractions of Aroclor 1242 (low boil and mid fractions are essentially unaffected). If this proves to be the case, it would indicate that using KgCOa and making a simple low boil cut may be a practical way of making a stable Aroclor. Safety: No increase in safety hazard is anticipated. No unusual effect was seen in laboratory distillations using KgCO. Comments: -- - -- No production loss will be involved since WOK Dept. 246 is presently running at only 75% of demonstrated capacity. Prepared by: APPROVALS: \ E. Heisler /o/>y/cr Date D. E.

OBJECTIVE Produce more stable Aroclor 1242 by chlorinating without a catalyst basket in the chlorinator and processing as normal. Produce more stable Aroclor 1242 by chlorinating without a catalyst basket in the chlorinator and processing it through the still system with potassium hydroxide adpled in place of the normally used lime (calcium hydroxide). Provide sufficient product, produced as above, for testing by customers, PRESENT PRACTICE Biphenyl (Bi0) is chlorinated in the chlorinators which contain catalyst baskets. Previously the basket furnished FeClj catalyst for the reaction, Pre sently (since 1957) sufficient amount of catalyst, needed to produce stable Aroclor, is added to each chlorinator when batch charged. At the beginning of a product (1242, 1240, etc.) run 200 pounds of lime is added to each still. The purpose of the lime is to tie up FeClj and neutralise HC1 in the crude. PROPOSED PROCEDURE Produce 8-9 batches of 1142 in No. 5 chlorinator with the catalyst ba sket removed. This ha s been done previously a s per Tentative Amend ment No, "C", Process half of this crude material through the remainder of the system as normal, and drum it off from the finished product tank. Process the other half through No. 1 still system, but substitute potassium hydroxide (0.06% of crude charge) for the lime in the still. Drum this , material off from the finished product tank, thus producing approximately , 1, 000 gallons of each type of test material to be used as samples for evaluation by electrical grade customers. Any^xcesa t estimatoria 1 will COMPANY TRAN 009203 CONFIDENTIAL WATER PCB-SD0000019433 V , PROPOSED PROCEDURE (Cont'd. ) be sold as non-electrical grade 1242 providing it pastes all specifications. JUST1F1CA TION From previous plant tests, the Aroclor produced in a chlorinator without the catalyst basket was equivalent or better than normal material. By removing the baskets, hold-up and cross - contamination are reduced. Results of PR &c D Laboratory studies indicate more stable Aroclor (i.e. 0. 15 ppm Cl by thermal chemical chlorides) can be made by addition of KOH to the still pot and stripping off the first 1.2% of the low boilers. Plant equipment will not permit this type of fractionation, but an improve ment over normal production is expected. SAFETY No increase in safety haazards is anticipated. No unusual effects were ' seen in the laboratory distillation using KOH. Normal precautions in handling KOH will be followed. APPROVALS: Prepared by*. D. R. Middleton A, Q. Oyi^LUz. D. R.

SECTION I SYNOPSIS OF PROCESS Aroclor Is a trade name used to designate chlorination products of biphenyl, biphenyl high boilers, or mixtures of the two. Liquid Aroclors are produced by chlorinating biphenyl to 21, J>2, M2, MB, 54, 60, and 62% chlorine content. Chlorination above 6y% yields a solid product at normal temperatures. Liquid Aroclors are ldentlfiet by four digit numbers: The last two digit numbers represent the chlorine content (percentage by weight), and the firrt two numbers represent the Aroclor condition (crude or distilled). Crude Aroclor: start with the prefix 11 whereas distilled Aroclors start with the prefix 12. For example, Aroclor 1242 is a distilled chlorinated biphenyl containing M2% chlorine. The first process step in the manufacture of Aroclors is a chlorina tion reaction. Biphenyl ( 0-0) and chlorine (Cle) gas in the presence of a Ferric Chloride (FeCla) catalyst are reacted to form a chlorinated aromatic compound, Hydrogen chloride (HC1) gas is liberated during this reaction and piped to the muriatic acid department. The exact chemistry of biphenyl chlorination is unknown. Many Isomers are formed. A schematic representation of biphenyl chlorination is as follows: BIPHENYL M.W. - 154 CHLORINE M.W. - 71 yf n HC1 + 26,200 n Btu. AROCLOR .

SECTION I SYNOPSIS OF PROCESS The second process step is the aeration and distillation of the crude AtocIot, Dry air is blown through the crude Aroclor for a period of two hours or more. Aeration removes most of the free hydrogen chloride. Distillation ci-crude Aroclors is done-under vacuum auto matically controlled with the controller pre-set between 30 - 50 mm Hg. abs. to obtain the best performance. Distillation of crude Aroclor separates residue lime, ferric chloride, and tars from the finished product. The third process step includes blending, filtration, and storage of Aroclors, Approximately 0. 1 -1 0.2% by weight of Attapulgus earth is .added to the distilled Aroclors The mixture is agitated and filtered to the finished product tank. The purpose of the Attapulgus earth is to absorb moisture and chloride ion to improve the electrical properties of the Aroclor. During the filtration of distilled Aroclor, 2-16 or. samples of the finished product are taken to the laboratory for control analyses. If the control analyses pass specifications, the batch is transferred to a storage tank. This process description will describe the production of Aroclors 1242, 1248, 1254, 1260, 1254Xylene mix, and 1262. , COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL TRAN 00,20, WATER PCB-SD0000019439 Dept. 246 Procen Description AROCLOR SECTION II FLOW SHEETS This section contains the following flow sheets. 2.

Nomenclature and Batch Data Aroclor i* a trade name used to designate chlorination products of bipbemyi^ biphenyl high belle rs, or a mixture of the two. The physical properties vary from light free flowing liquids to crystalline and non* crystalline solids, depending upon the degree of chlorination and the composition of the raw materials. Chlorinated biphenyl yields a liquid product of increasing viscosity up to and including 63% chlorine. Chlo' rination above 63% yields a solid product at normal temperatures, A numerical system of nomenclature, consisting of four digits, has been developed for identifying the various Arociors; The'first digit denotes the aromatic raw material used in the chlorination step. The figure 1--- indicates 100% technical grade biphenyl. The second digit denotes whether or not the product is distilled. The figure -1-- indicates undistilled product, and the figure -2- - indicates a distilled product. The last two digits of the nomenclature system denote the approximate percent age by weight of chlorine contained in the finished product. For example, Aroclor 1242 is a distilled chlorinated biphenyl containing 42% chlorine, Manufacture of all liquid Aroclors is essentially the same. Batch data are listed below: Type Aroclor 1242 1248 1254 1260 1262 Biphenyl Charge 4000# 4000# 4000# 4000# 4000# Chlorination Time 10 - 12 hr. 10-12 hr. 14-17 hr. 16-20 hr. 16-22 hr.

SECTION III PROCESS IN DETAIL B, Chlorination Reaction Step Chlorination of biphenyl ie the only process step where a chemical reaction take* place, All other Arcelor process operations a re mechanical. The starting raw materials for Aroclor production are biphenyl and chlorine gas. - Biphenyl is received in 8, 000 and 10, 000 gallon tank car* from Anniston, Alabama. The biphenyl in the tank cars is a solid mass because the crystallising point of biphenyl is .68. 7 *C. Steam must be applied to the -----tank car coil to melt the biphenyl. It-is n&ceeeary to ntsit-a vent hole------through the solid mass of biphenyl by insertion of a hairpin steam coil through the tank car dome before applying steam to the tank car coils. The vent hole avoids a pressure build-up in the bottom of the tank car and possible damage to the car. When the biphenyl is completely melted, it is sampled for crystallising point and moisture content and unloaded through the tank car standpipe by air pressure to the 25, 000 gallon storage tank. Dry air is used to unload the biphenyl cars to keep the biphenyl free from moisture. The flash point of biphenyl is 112 C. Chlorine gas is received in a 4 inch pipeline from the chlorine depart ment. In order to facilitate operation of the chlorine liquefaction ay stem, "sniff gas with a purity of 75-95% (the remainder being air) is transferred from the chlorine department. The normal pressure of the chlorine gas in Department 246 is 20-25 psig. Biphenyl (4000#) is charged into each chlorinator. from the measuring tank. The biphenyl charge in the measuring tank can be regulated by vs Ives at different overflow levels, The fotir overflow levels on the measuring tank permit biphenyl charges of 1800, 2800, 3600, and 4000 pounds. The measuring tank is equipped with an agitator and circulating pump. Two pounds of ferric chloride (0. 05% of charge) are charged into the measuring tank for each batch. The charge from the measuring tank is pumped through the circulating line to the chiorinators. Chlorination is carried out in five chiorinators . Each chlorinator is three feet in diameter by sixteen feet high, and constructed of steel. Each chlorinator has a catalyst bed which is 2' 3" in diameter by 8 feet high. The catalyst bed con si sts of 1 1/2 inch diameter by 2 inches long pieces of pipe which are similar in nature to raschig rings. The biphenyl charge is heated to 120*C. or higher before chlorination is started. After charging the chlorinator, circulation of the charge is started before the chlorine feed is begun to maintain an even distribution of the ferric chloride catalyst. . COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL TgkN 009215 WATER PCB-SD0000019445 Dept. 246 Procet* Description AROCLOR 6. SECTION 111 PROCESS IN DETAIL B. Chlorine gas from the chlorine department passes through a Brink mist eliminator and evaporator before entering the chlorinator. The . mist eliminator remove* most of the impurities, and the vaporator insures that all of the chlorine is gaseous. The purified chlorine gas is admitted to the bottom of the chlorinator , through a distributor plate (Sparger) and passes through the catalyst bed. A chlorinator temperature less than 170*C. should be maintained during the chlorination reaction o avoid sublimation and subsequent condensation of biphenyl in the off-.gas system. Each^chlorinator is ____ equipped with a Brink mist eliminator. The purpose of the off-gas mist eliminators is to trap entrained particles of Aroclor and biphenyl. The chlorination temperature in the chlorinator s is controlled by auto raatie chlorine gas flew regulation to hold the temperature within 4* 5 *C. The chlorination tempe rature must be at least 120*C, at the beginning of the batch and no more than 170*C. to finish off a batch. The normal batch temperature is 150*C. The louvers of the aim cooled heat exchanger located in the external circulating line of the chlorinator are positioned ( such that the batch temperature will remain between 120*C. and 170*C. The exact batch temperature will depend on the chlorine flow rate which will fluctuate to maintain a batch temperature of 150*C. The louver adjustment is manually controlled by a hand valve located in the control room. The temperature of the batch is recorded at four different points; (1) in the center of the chlorinator, (2) just above the chlorine sparger in the chlorinator, (3) at the discharge of the chlorinator pump, and ^ (4) at the discharge of the air-cooled heat exchanger. Point 1 is alarmed for high temperatures, and point 4 is alarmed for low temperatures. As ^ a safety device, a high temperature sensing element is positioned at point 2 to shut off the chlorine gas flow if the reaction temperature exceeds 190*C. COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL The batches are continuously circulated at an average flow rate of 200-220 GPM from the bottom of the chlorinator, up through the air-cfeeled heat exchanger, and back into the top of the chlorinator over the catalyst bed. Chlorine feed up to e maximum of 1500 pounds per hour is fed into each chlorinator through a flow recorder-Integrator which is alarmed. The aero return integrator measures the total amount of chlorine gas flow per batch at any given time and will shut off the gas flow when the desired pre-set pounds of chlorine has entered the reactor. The average chlorine feed rate is 1000 pounds per hour. Progress of the chlorination reaction is checked periodically as needed t after a pre-set amount of chlorine gas as measured by the recorder-inte grator passes into the chlorinator. The degree of chlorination is measured by determining the specific gravity of a sample taken from the circulating line. More frequent gravity checks are made when approaching the end of chlorination.

Aeration and Distillation When chlorination is complete, the crude Aroclor is pumped into number two blow tank (Capacity 2000 gallons). The crude Aroclor is atmted In-the #2-blw tank for two hours or more with dry air. Aeration of crude Aroclor removes most of the free hydrogen chloride. Crude aerated Aroclor is transferred from the #2 blow tank to the #1 blow tank. The #1 blow tank Is used as a crude Aroclor feed tank to - the stills. Crude aerated Aroclor Is transferred from the #1 blow tank to vacuum stills through an automatic control valve which maintains a constant level fn the stills. Under normal conditions the automatic feed to the stills is. shut off after distilling about 75,000 pounds of Aroclor. (This is equivalent to filling 7 still receivers). . The still is then boiled down until a temperature 0 difference between the still coil inlet and outlet approaches 40 c. At this point distillation is discontinued and all but a small heel of the residue is drawn off to drums and discarded or sold as Montar. The still is immediately recharged with crude Aroclor and 200 pounds of lime is added directly to the still pot. Hydrated lime is received in 50 pound bags. The lime neutralizes any residual HC1 in the still liquor and prevents sublimation of ferric chloride during the distillation period. Distillation of Aroelors is done under vacuum automatically controlled. The best performance is obtained at a steady vacuum which can be pre-set by a controller between >0-50 mm Hg. Abs. Natural gas is used to heat the coil of the Aroclor still furnaces. The pressure of the gas burner (eclipse, st. 108.5* 2", #508, 60000C BTU/nr.) is adjusted as needed for production requirements^ The normal gas pressure is 2-> psig. . ' D. Blending, Filtration, and Storage When the still receiver is filled, the distilled Aroclor is pumped tc the blend tank (2000 gallon capacity). After two fillings of the receiver tank have been pumped to the blend tank, approximately 40 pounds of attapulgus smrth is added t the distilled 1242 Aroclor. All other Aroelors are earth-treated with 20 pounds of Attapulgus earth. Regular Attapulgus earth is received in 50 pound bags. The mixture is agitated and filtered to the finished product tank (2000 gallon capacity) through a >6 inch stainless steel Sparkler Filter. The Attapulgus earth is roasted at 250C. for a minimum of four hourt . in a Qrieve-Hendry drying oven before addition to the blend tank. The purpose of earth heat treatment is to remove any moisture in the earth and activate it. The Attapulgus earth absorbs water and ; ionic impurities. This improves the electrical-quality properties oi the Aroclor. COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL TRAN 009217 WATER PCB-SD0000019447 Dept. 246 - Process Description 0. AROCLOR SECTION III PROCESS IN DETAIL D. Blending, Filtration, end Storage (Cont'd.) is cleaned after about 5-7 batches or as needed. During the filtration, 2-16 os, samples are taken to the laboratory for control analyses, If the control analyses pass specifications, the batch is trans ferred from the product tank to a storage tank. After several batches have accumulated in the storage tank, the contents of the tank are mixed, ' and composite samples are taken for lot analyses, Three underground (15, 000 gallon) tanks and five Above-surface (each ~ 20, OOO gallons) are available for storage of the finished product. The blend tanks, finished product tanks, and Aroclor 1242 and 1254 ` storage tanks are blanketed with nitrogen. The pressure of the nitrogen g&s is 10 psig. Nitrogen blanketing maintains the electrical properties of the Aroclors. The Aroclor from the storage tapks are drummed, "pumped to tank cars, ' pumped to tank trucks', or transferred to Department ;A<-24 6 or B-246' mixing ' tanks for the production of Fyranols, interteens, or Pydraul A-200. Batches of A roclor 1254-mix are mixed in the #1 blend tank. This opera - tion consists of a mijc of 10% xylene, and 90% Aroclor 1254. Xylene is received in 55 gallon drums , The flash point of xylene is 85 *F. Mixing, sampling and drumming of 1254-mix is accomplished directly from the blend tanks. After the blending operation, the blend tank must be cleaned. The bottom outlet of the tank is opened and the tank is cleaned out with live steam and then blown with air. , E. By-product Hydrogen Chloride The by-product hydrogen from the chlorinators is collected in a common pipeline header and flows to the central HCl absorption unit to manufacture Muriatic Acid in Department F-218. If Department F-218 is unable to handle the off-gas, it may be sewered at Department 246 by pasting through a Haveg S-K drowning jet. The removal of HCl from the off-gas concentrates the original quantity of hydrogen and air to a point well with in the explosive limit. Therefore, it is essential to either dilute thip gas going up the vent stack or increase its velocity past the flame proportion rate (15 ft. /aec.). This is accomplished by introducing a sufficient quantity of steam into the vent stack.

AROCLOR SECTION IV COMMENTS ON PROCESS CHLORINATION STEP_____ B. Capacity The monthly production capacity of Department 246 is 1,700, 000 pounds (2, 400, 000 pounds is expected by August 1, 1964) of Aroclors on a 7 day ,, per week ba sis. The capacity of the chlorinators is a function of the following variables. ' * - Baleh Cooling Rate Chlorination of biphenyl i# an exothermic reaction which produce s 510 BTUS per pound of chlorine gas unde rgoing a reaction with biphenyl. Biphenyl can be chlorinated as fast as the exothermic heat can be removed from the batch and maintain a batch temperature of 150 *C. 2. Chlorine Flow Rate - the reaction time decreases as the Chlorine flow rate increases. The chlorine flow Tate is approximately 1000 pounds per hour per chlorinator. A maximum chlorine flow rate of ' 1500 pounds per hour per chlorinator can be attained if desired. The concentration of chlorine in the "anift" gas is another factor control ling the rate of chlorination. 3, Catalyst - The chlorination rate increases when ferric chloride catalyst i6 added to the charge. The be6t re6ult6 are obtained when the biphenyl charge contains .05% ferric chloride catalyst, C. Quality . Some of the factors which affect Aroclor quality are as follows: 1. Temperature - According to re search experimental results, the chlorinator temperature must be greater than 120*C. at the beginning of the chlorination reaction to produce stable Aroclors. 2. Catalyst - Good contact is necessary to produce stable Aroclors. It is suspected that agitation and circulation of the reactants improve the effectiveness of the catalyst. The catalyst is also responsible for the chlorine positioning on the biphenyl molecule. Ferric chloride catalyst may be responsible for producing the desired end product, Results of research work concerning catalyst and Isomeric distribution are given in Appendix N. rnMPAHY CAIFIDEht,Al TRAN 009220 WATER PCB-SD0000019450 Dept, 246 - ProceB Description 11. AROCLOR SECTION IV COMMENTS ON PROCESS CHLORINATION STEP C. Quality (CoatM, ) 3. Raw Material Purity - The purity of raw materials can affect the quality of Aroclors both directly and indirectly. In a direct manner, impurities which are ionic lessen the resistivity of Aroclors, Dis- - tillation of crude Aroclor separates most of the ionic impurities; however, minute impurities can be carried over to the receiver tanks. Attapulgus earth can remove the remaining impurities in most instances. If any ionic impurities remain after the earth treatment, the resistivity of the Aroclors will be low because such impurities will conduct electricity even in minute concentrations. In an indirect sense, impurities such as sulfates in the chlorine gas, will poison the ferric chloride catalyst and thus unstable Aroclors will be produced. The chemistry and mechanism of the catalyst poisoning are not known for certain. AERATION AND DISTILLATION Steam is not applied to the coils of the blow tanks when aerating Aroclor 1142 and 1148. This prevents the loss of Aroclor vapors. Eighty.psig steam is applied to the coils when aerating other Aroclors. High moisture may be removed effectively by blowing the crude Aroclor with dry air. Vacuum trouble on the stills is usually caused by flashing of product, air leaks, plugged vacuum lines, or improper functioning of the vacuum jets. Flashing can usually be stopped by operating the still at a slower rate or increasing the flow of cooling water to the vapor condenser. Vacuum trouble can be traced systematically from the jets and usually ieolated. High color and entrainment will result from overheating (around 25*C. ; above normal distillation temperature) Aroclor , faulty operation of the distillation step, or boiling down the still too far, (Tars will carry over). The "tail - end" still fraction (tars) is a possible source of unstable Aroclors. COMPANY confidential TRAN 009221 WATER PCB-SD0000019451 Dept, 246 - Process Description 12.

Non-electrical Aroclors are shipped in leased trucks and may be iron although other materials of construction are suitable Pydraul is shipped in steel tank trucks. Electrical grade Aroclor and Pyranols are shipped in lined tank cars either 4,000 or 6,000 gallons in capacity. The lining is either tin, zinc or aluminum spray because iron contamination is detrimental to the electrical properties. Electrical grade cars are either owned by Monsanto or on a long term lease. Non-Electrical grade Aroclor is shipped in steel cars. All electrical grade lots and bulk shipments of non-electrical material are sampled from the final container. That is all tank cars and tank trucks are sampled and analyzed after loading. All electrical grade drums are sampled from one of the drums. Tank cars and tank trucks are inspected to be aure they are free of dirt and water or other foreign material before loading. Heels are drained before loading some materials. Car washing when necessary is done by the repair track. Tank cars are sealed with a numbered aluminum seal Lacquer lined drums are used for Aroclor and Pyranol and plain steel drums are used for Pydrauls.

The manufacture of Aroclors was developed quite by chance. The Indian Refining Company, dn the latter part of 1926, approached the Swann Chemical Company located in Anniston, Alabama, regarding the production of Biphenyl which the Indian Refining Company wanted to use as a heat transfer medium. The Swann Chemical Company agreed to produce Biphenyl, but first a process had to be developed. Two years later, in 1926, a pilot plant for producing Biphenyl became operative. However, in the meantime, the Indian Refining Company dropped all interest in Biphenyl. Since a process had been developed for manufacturing Biphenyl, the Swann Chemical Company started looking for other outlets for this material <, The simplest outlet was in the form of Chlorinated Biphenyls which were produced in the laboratory in 1929. The Chlorinated Biphenyls produced exhibited good electrical properties. This was reported to the Oeneral Electric Company who immediately became interested in the product which ultimately developed into large scale consumption in electrical transformers and capacitors. The trade name "Aroclors" was adopted for the Chlorinated Biphenyl products. The properties of Aroclors vary from mobile oily liquids to fine white crystals and hard transparent resins. The excellent electrical properties, fire resistance and inertness of the Aroclors make them useful for many applications. plant equipment was Installed to produce Aroclors at a rate of >000 pounds per day or 1 million pounds per year. In the following years, this production rate was insufficient to meet the increased sales requirements. The Swann Chemical Company was purchased by the Monsanto Company in 1955* This purchase gave Monsanto access to the patent rights for the production of Aroclors. - production Capacity needed to be expanded, and since Monsanto had a Chlorine Plant at Plant"B" (now called the W. 0. Krummrich Plant), the Aroclor production was transferred from the Anniston Plant to the Monsanto, Illinois Plant, where operations at an increased productive capacity started in September, 1926. By 19^0, the Krummrich Plant production capacity was Inadequate, and in 19^1, a similar production unit was installed In the Anniston Plant.

PRESENT PROCESS: Aroclors are the reaction products formed by the chlorination of diphenyl in the presence of iron chloride catalyst. The crude Aroclor, produced in the chlorlnator, is air blown, distilled over calcium oxide treated with Attapulgus earth, filtered, and transferred to storage PROPOSED CHANCE: Amend the existing manufacturing process to Include the production of Aroclor 1232, which contains high percentages of dlchDorobiphenyl, to be used in the large scale preparation of MCS 177, a 700-800c>F. heat transfer fluid. Aroclor 1232 is prepared by the direct chlorination of diphenyl to a specific gravity of 1.232 to 1.236 at 55/15-5C. in the presence of iron chloride catalyst. The crude Aroclor 1232 is air blown, and distilled over calcium oxide prior to transfer of the product into storage containers at 50 to oOC. Insoluble isomers, present in this special Aroclor 1232, slowly separates out of solution upon prolonged standing at room temperatures and are very difficult to redissolve. Since this product is a starting material for the MCS 177 process, the Attapulgus treatment and final filtration are optional but not necessary. COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL TRAN 009299 WATER PCB-SD0000019528 -2- Tills special Aroclor 1252 cannot be back-blended If the finished product is off on its prescribed chlorine specifications The JncorporatIon of excess monochloroblphenyls Into the product will increase the volatility of the MCS 177 and the addition of trlchloroolpheny1b will drastically raise the pour point of the finished heat transfer fluid. Abnormal compositions of this Aroclor 1252 are readily detectable by gag-liquid chromatographic analyses. Approval 18 requested to demonstrate this change as a source of the necessary starting material for Monsanto's candidate, In the lucrative field of high temperature heat transfer applications.

Research work has Indicated a trend toward improved color when anhydrous FeCla la used either alone or in combinatinn with plant steel catalyst. To cite an example, using 2% by weight plant steel catalyst, an untreated Aroclor 1260 was prepared in the laboratory having a color of 56% Transmission (Fisher Electrophotometer, filler 425B), whereas from a batch in which the same catalyst plus 0 2% by weight anhydrous FeCls was employed, an Aroclor 1260 of 72% Transmission was obtained. Extensive analyses of the Aroclor 1260, which was prepared using plant steel in conjunction with 0.2% by weight anhydrous FeCls, did not indicate any abnormalities or deviations from usual quality material. A complete summary of the Research work is presented in a memorandum to Dr. R. M. Hitchens, January.24, 1951. It is proposed to condut a plant demonstration which will comprise the production of three to four chlorination batches of Aroclor ll6o using 0.2% by weight of the bjphenyl charge as anhydrous FeCl. Depending on the outcome of this plant trial, that is, if a color improvement is observed and a normal quality product is retained, a run of longer duration will be planned to study further the effect of anhydrous FeCls catalyst on the color of Aroclor 1260. This may Include variations In the amount of FeCls charged to the chlorlnator. Original signed by; ' j. p.

B Title: Aroclor - Standard Manufacturing Process Objective: This amendment covers changes in the chlorination step of the Aroclor process; In particular, it suggests that the batch of biphenyl be circulated in the chlorinator during the entire period of chlorination, and that a temperature of 1J0-150C., be maintained during the whole chlorination Previous Practice: In the Manufacturjng Process, no definite temperature is described for the start of the Chlorination. For the biphenyl measuring tank a temperature of at least 85C., is recommended and as a "finishing temperature" a range of 120-1J5C is described for Aroclor 1242 and 1248, a "finishing temp erature " of 120-150C., for Aroclor 1254, 1260 and 1262. The circulation of each batch in the chlorinator is started after the first four (4) hours of the chlorination (approximately half of the total chlorination time of Aroclor 1242). Proposed Amendment: The biphenyl charge will be heated to at least 115-120C., in the measuring tank. After charging the chlorinator, circulation will be started before the chlorine feed is begun to allow distribution of the ferric chloride catalyst. The temperature of the chlorinator should be brought up to 1J0C. in a minimum time usually 20 to JO minutes after the chlorine introduction The chlorination of bJphenyl to all liquid Aroclors should be carried out at a reaction temperature of 1J0-150C. COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL TRAN 009302 WATER PCB-SD0000019531 Tentative Amendment No. B -2- September 27, 1957 Proposed Amendment (Cont1d.) NOTE: In order to mechanically reduce losses due to sublimation and en trainment, it is suggested that the circulating line introducing the charge into the top of the chlorination be extended to the surface level of the biphenyl charge. This will prevent the reaction mix ture from being sprayed into the exit gas stream and should ell minate some entrainment. justification: Laboratory experiments and actual plant runs have indicated that catalyst concentration and reaction temperature are imperative for the production of an end product of good quality. (Final Report No. I6M0, October 22, 1956 "by H Merten, Progess Report No. 5; job No 3*128 Code IND PL, of August, 1957 by H Merten and A. M. Ellanburg. Circulating each biphenyl batch from the beginning of the chlorination should facilitate the production of a more uniform material, since a better contact of the biphenyl charge with the catalyst at the start of each chlori nation is made possible. The catalyst will be distributed more evenly and hot spots will be eliminated. The production of inferior Aroclor caused by too low a chlorination temp erature of deficient catalyst distribution would be avoided by changing the present Manufacturing Process according to this amendment.

Objective: This amendment covers process changes in the chlorination step of the Aroclor Process, Section V Part B, concerning the Catalyst. Present Practice: The biphenyl charge is dropped by gravity to the #1 2, 5, 4 or 5 chlorlnators. The chlorlnators are constructed of steel and are 5 feet in diameter x 16 feet in height. For catalyst, they contain an 8 foot bed of coarse steel turnings which have been burned free of oil and moisture over an open gas flame prior to their introduction Into the chlorinator. Additional catalyst is added to the chlorlnators as required. Normally, this is not necessary more than once a year. Proposed Amendment: In addition to the present catalyst source, each chlorinator batch of 5600 or *1000 pounds of biphenyl will be charged with 2 pounds of an hydrous ferric chloride before the chlorination begins. Justification: Experience has shown that various degrees of unstable Aroclor can result at times from the present method of supplying catalyst to the chlorination step. The use of FeCl has been investigated and found to give a very stable product when used In the suggested purport ion The complaints from Oeneral Electric Company on Aroclor 12*12 re garding the instability of certa n material produced in July and August, 1956, make it mandatory that we maintain our Aroclor quality at its maximum at all times.

Proposed Procedure Initial" chlorination of Biphenyl may be started at a minimum temperature of 95C. provided that 120^0 is reached within 1/2 hour. Chlorination may be continued for the next tow hours at a temperature no less than 120C. Completion of the batch will then be controlled between 150 and 150C. Reason and justification Normal Biphenyl storage is maintained at approximately 95 0. to keep safely below the flash point. Therefore to adhere strictly to the process would require heating of the batch to 150C. before chlorination. This results in production delays and increased Biphenyl pluggage in chlorlnator off gas lines. Based on plant experience most chlorinators are recharged while still hot from the preceeding batch; this normally yeiIds a starting temperature in the range of 120C. However, occasionally delays cause charging to a cooler chlorlnator where the net temperature may approach 95C. This proposal would allow chlorination to start immediately under these conditions The batch temperature would then rise rapidly from its own heat with water being applied later to line out the temperature somewhere slightly above 120C. A lower temperature range 120 to 150C. is needed for the first two hours to reduce Biphenyl carry-over into the off gas lines.

AROCLOR APPENDIX M QUALITY CONSIDERATIONS . The Aroclor compound* ere among the most versatile chemically-made materials in industry, Aroclors are useful in many ways because of their outstanding inertness. Aroclors are used alone for particular physical jobs such as insulating, heat transfer, sealants, and expansion media; and they are used as com , ponents or extendors in elastomers, adhesives, paints, lacquers, var nishes, pigments and waxes. Aroclors must be highly pure, with dependably minimal traces of electro lytes for use in electrical applications. Electrical grade Aroclors must pass numerous stringent specifications. The following tests determine. Aroclor quality: Hydrolysis stability Measure of chemically unstable chlorine compounds. Munch or Monsanto Stability Test Measure of thermally unstable chlorine compounds at elevated temperatures. Thermal Chemical Chloride Developed by the General Electric Co. to measure chemically and thermally unstable chlorine compounds. Resistivity Measure of insulative properties. Power Factor Measures power loss due to current through a capacitor. Dielectric Constant Measures the capacitance of a standard such as air compared to the capacitances of Aroclor. Specific Gravity, : refractive index Measures of chlorination level. ' The stability and electrical properties of electrical-grade Aroclors are paramount in quality considerations. The chlorination step of the process is most critical because many properties of the final product are deter mined by the properties of the crude Aroclor, Condition* in the chlorinator needed for a good quality product are: 1. Chlorination Temperature - The chlorination temperature must be greater thanU20*G4``At the beginning of the chlorination reaction to produce stable Aroclors. Results of research tests indicate that ' product stability is better as the initial chlorination temperature is increased. COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL TRAN 009311 WATER PCB-SD0000019540 5. Department 246 - Process Description AROCLbR APPENDIX M QUALITY CONSIDERATIONS 2. Ferric Chloride Concentration - Research ha* found that the ferric chloride concentration must be at least 0. 03% to form stable products. Research recommends 0. 05% ferric chloride. Lower catalyst ratioB result in increased "addition" chlorination as opposed to "substitution" chlorination, indicated by higher chloride values and lower yields. The isomeric distribution of the final product is a function of the type and concentration of the catalyst used in the reaction. Homogeneous suspension of the catalyst is extremely important. Good catalyst contact can not be attained without homogeneous sui* pension. Since ferric chloride does not mix well with biphenyl, the dry catalyst must not be poured into the chlorinator. 3. Geometry of Reacting Vessel - The shape of the reactor affects the circulation and flow pattern of the reactants, It is suspected that the chlorine ga6 channels through a void space. in the existing catalyst basket. This problem is presently being studied. The reactor must be designed such that circulation of reactants is rapid and homogeneous and local over-chlorination does not occur. 4. Cleanliness - The ferric chloride catalyst settles to the bottom of the chlorinator. Areas of the packed bed become plugged with ferric chloride and channeling of reactant flow may result, A steam clean-out of the chlorinator may be an expedient method to remove the ferric chloride. This method was tried in the department, and evidently was successful. Further tests by the laboratory will verify the effectiveness of a steam clean-out. 5. Sparging - The sparger controls the gas distribution under the cata lyst hold-up plate and the size of gas bubbles. It is not known whether the catalyst basket or sparger or botlvare^the critical fa^ter^^in achieving the proper flow of gas through the reactor. It is believed that the sparger should distribute small bubbles give good gas dis tribution throughout the chlorinator. The small bubbles have a greater surface area per unit volume of gas for mass transfer,` and this should increase, the'rdafetidn rite'.. .* : 6. Raw Material Purity - The purity of raw materials can affect the quality of Aroclors. Sulfates are particularly harmful in the chlorine gas. It is suspected that sulfates poison the ferric chloride catalyst and Sulfonate .some of the biphenyl. If the ferric chloride cata lyst is . poisoned, the effective catalyst concentration i^reduced atfd^thue un KJ stable aroclors will be produced. The chemistry and mechanism of O catalytic poisoning are not known for certain. Sulfonated biphenyl is carried-over during distillation and is not removed by earth treating. TRAN 009312 COMPANY WFIDENT/AL WATER PCB-SD0000019541 55. Dept, 246 - Process Description AROCLOR APPENDIX M QUALITY CONSIDERATIONS 6. Raw Material Purity (Cont'd.) Sulfonated biphenyl has ionic properties which lowers the resis tivity of the finished product. A Brink Mist Eliminator has been installed in Dept. 246 to eliminate the chlorine impurities. 7. ,, Earth Treatment - The factors affecting stability also influence the electrical properties of Aroclors. An absorbent will be inef fective if the Aroclor was not prepared in a manner such that a stable product was formed during the chlorination reaction. However, research has found that absorbents are very effective for improvement of electrical properties by removing ferric chloride and tars carried-over during distillation, provided the crude Aroclor has good stability. The absorbent used in Dept. 246 (after distillation) is Attapulgus Earth; .. the concentration should be 0.05% for Aroclor 1242 and 0.1% for other Aroclors, The earth must be heat treated at 250*C. for a minimum of 4 hours before addition to the Aroclor. Heat treatment reduces the moisture and activates the earth. * \ 8. Lime Treatment - It is important that proper amount of lime (250 pounds per still run) be added to the still to prevent sublima tion of ferric chloride. 9. The blend tanks, finished product tanks, and Aroclor 1242 and 1254 storage tanks are blanketed with nitrogen gas. Nitrogen blanketing maintains the electrical properties of the Aroclors by preventing corrosion of the equipment. ,, , In summary, the chlorination step of the process is the most critical. A good quality Aroclor can not be produced if a stable compound is not formed during chlorination. Once a stable compound is formed, other techniques such as use of lime, absorbents, and nitrogen blanketing are used to maintain and improve electrical properties.

Absorbents Numerous absorbents have been screened in the laboratory at various contact temperatures* for their effect on resistivity of plant untreated Aroclor 1242. The most satisfactory absorbent pound for improving the resistivity of Aroclor 1242 was LVM attasorb. Table I of this section lists the laboratory results of the different absorbents used to treat Aroclor 1242. Degradation of Aroclors Degradation of Aroclors, which leads to loss in eleotrical resistivity, is one of the short comings of using Aroclor as a dielectric, especially since only a very minor degradation can cause a serious breakdown in electrical equipment. The thermal degradation of fractionated Aroclor has been measured at 250C. and the amount of Hydrogen Chloride liberated was measured. The results of these tests are listed in table II of this section. 0 * Aroclor 1242 has been degraded by ultravlolent light, and the decrease in electrical resistivity with irradiation time was measured. The plot of resistivity versus time of irradiation (Figure 1 of this section) resembles a conductivity versus oonoentration curve for a weak electrolyte. It is possible to remove the conducting material brought about by photo-degrad ation, and restore the resistivity to its original value by passing the degraded material over activated alumina. Thermal degradation of Aroclors is minor compared to photo chemical degradation. Thermal treatment causes release of a small amount of hydrogen Chloride Initially, but this evolution ceases after a short time. Such behavior is attributed to thermal degradation of impurities. If Aroclor is irrodiated, then exposed to a thermal treatment, appreciably more HC1 is liberated.
