Procedures for Establishing Emissions for Early Reduction Compliance Extensions.Volume 1. Synthetic Organic Chemical Manufacturing, Ethylene Oxide Sterilization, and Chromium Electroplating

摘要

Regulations have been proposed governing compliance extensions for EarlyReductions of Hazardous Air Pollutants (HAP). The regulations allow a six year MACT standard compliance extension for sources that achieve HAP reductions of 90% (95% for particulates) from a base year of 1987 (or more recent base year). The document includes acceptable emission estimating techniques that can be used when source testing is not feasible. The document includes techniques for synthetic organic chemical manufacturing, ethylene oxide sterilization, and chromium electroplating.
