Locating and Estimating Air Emissions from Sources of Acrylonitrile

摘要

To assist groups interested in inventorying air emissions of various potentially toxic substances, EPA is preparing a series of documents such as this to compile available information on sources and emissions of these substances. This document deals specifically with acrylonitrile. Its intended audience includes Federal, State and local air pollution personnel and others interested in locating potential emitters of acrylonitrile and in making gross estimates of air emissions therefrom. This document presents information on (1) the types of sources that may emit acrylonitrile, (2) process variations and release points that may be expected within these sources, and (3) available emissions information indicating the potential for chloroform release into the air from each operation.
