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," 5th 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+1990&Docs=&Query=FNAME%3 D 1000313 <br />A2.TXT%20or%20(%20Estimating%20or%20Releases%20and%20 Waste%20or <br />%20Treatment%2Oor%2OEfficiencies%20or%20for%20or%20the%20or%2OToxi <br />c%20or%20Chemical%20or%20Release%20or%20Inventory%20or%20Form)& <br />Time=&EndTime=&SearchMethod=l&TocRestriet=n&Toc=&TocEntry=&QFiel <br />d=&QFieldYear=&QFieldMonth=&QFieldDay=&UseQField=&IntQField0p=1 <br />&ExtQField0p=1 &XmlQuery=&File=D%3A%5Czyfiles%5CIndex%20Data0/o5 <br />C86thru90%5CTxt%5C00000002%5C 10003BA2.txt&User=ANONYMOU S&Pa <br />ssword=anonymous&SortMethod=h%7C- <br />&MaximumDocuments= l 0&FuzzyDegree=0&ImageQuality=r75g8/r75g8/x 150y <br />150g] 6/i425&Display=p%7Cf&DetSeekPage=x&SearchBack=ZyActionL&Back <br />=ZyActionS&BackDesc=Results%20page&Maximum Pages=l &ZyEntry= l &See <br />kPage=x&ZyPURL.
