process, the amount of Chemical X that is lost through the process vent on an <br />annual basis can be estimated as follows: <br />Input = Amount purchased (8,000 pounds) <br />Output = Product (24,000 lbs x 25 %) + waste (10,000 lbs x 15 %) <br />+ process vent loss <br />Input = Output <br />8,000 lbs Chemical X = 6,000 lbs + 1,500 lbs + process vent loss <br />Process vent loss = 8,000 - 6,000 - 1,500 = 500 lbs Chemical X per year <br />3. Method E : Emission Factors published in the EPA document AP -42, or those al- <br />ready approved by LRAPA, or those developed specifically for your facility, are <br />all acceptable means of estimation of air emissions, unless monitoring data are <br />available. AP -42, "Compilation of Air Pollutant Emission Factors," 5 th edition, is <br />available at: (1) LRAPA office, (2) University of Oregon library, or (3) on the In- <br />ternet at http: / /www.epa.gov /ttn/chief/ap42 /index.html. <br />4. Method O : When no data exist and document - driven estimation methods are not <br />available, a business may use its best engineering judgment in calculating <br />reportable quantities. When engineering calculations are appropriate, businesses <br />are encouraged to consult EPA 560/4 -88 -002, "Estimating Releases and Waste <br />Treatment Efficiencies for the Toxic Chemical Release Inventory Form," Dec. <br />1987 at <br />http: / /nepis.epa.gov/Exe /ZyNET. exe/ 10003BA2 .TXT ?ZyActionD= ZyDocument <br />&Client = EPA &Index = 1986 +Thru +1 990 &Docs = &Query= FNAME%3D 10003B <br />A2.
