8.16.390: TABLES AND CHARTS:

The tables and charts referred to in this chapter are as follows:

A.   Fuel Burning Equipment:

 

Table 1
Heat Input In Million British Thermal Units Per Hour	Maximum Allowable Emissions Of Particulate Matter In Pounds Per Million British Thermal Units
Up to and including 10	0.60
100	0.35
1,000	0.20
10,000 and above	0.10

 

Utilization of the preceding figure is accomplished by determining the particle size and then reading vertically to the curve and then horizontally to determine the collection efficiency. This chart implies that as the particle size decreases the collection efficiency is decreased.

B.   Process Equipment Or Operations:

Interpolation of the data in this table for process weight rates up to 60,000 pounds/hr shall be accomplished by use of the equation E = 4.10 P0.67, and interpolation and extrapolation of the data for process weight rates in excess of 60,000 pounds/hr shall be accomplished by use of the equation E = 55.0 P0.11-40, where E = rate of emission in pounds/hr and P = process weight rate in tons/hr.

Utilization of this table is accomplished by first determining the process rate in pounds/hr or in tons/hr and then reading the allowable rate of emission in pounds/hr horizontally to the right.

120,000	0.040

 

Interpolation of the data in this table shall be accomplished by the use of the equation C = 1.78S - 0.325 where S = source gas volume, SCFM and C = concentration in grains per SCF. (GR = Grains)

Utilization of this table is accomplished by first determining the source gas volume in SCFM and then reading the allowable concentration in GR/SCF horizontally to the right.

For a process weight between any 2 consecutive process weights stated in this table, the emission limitation shall be determined by interpolation. (Ord. 316 §25, 1970)
