If you were starting from scratch, how would you approach evaluating the amount of emissions occuring from a batch reactor that processed different chemicals?
I have about a dozen reactors to do this for, each of which produce several different chemicals throughout the year. I'm starting small...
Doing the annual emissions inventory report. I've calculated NH3 emissions for a distillation column that makes Benzyl amine. The one thing I'm unsure about is factoring in any bottoms re-distillation. We don't keep an "inventory" of it. What's the best approach for estimating any emissions that...
Is there a way to adapt the storage tank emissions in AP-42 Ch 7.1 for a tank with heated liquid?
The tank is a vertical fixed roof and will contain molten benzoic acid at about 140 deg F.
Would you just use the 140 for the bulk liqud temperature instead of calculating it off of ambient...
Got about 20000 gallons of a nonyl phenol/phenol mix from cleaning nonyl phenol heels out of tanks. We have a Haz waste BIF so we have the option of applying for a Class 2 permit mod to burn it, which would take several months by the time the public comment etc took place. I'm looking for some...
I have an application where 22,500 cfm of plant exhaust air contains 1500 ppm of methanol vapor. We are looking at various technologies to treat, and someone mentioned condensing the methanol to bring the concentration down before sending the remaining air to APC equipment. Would this actually...
I remember way back when I was a wanna be engineer in college seeing these cost estimation graphs in my Econ book for blowers and pumps. For example, you could estimate how much a blower would cost based on the CFM and the psi max discharge. Does anyone know of a resource on the web that can...
I have nine 400 gallon totes of wastewater containing acetone (about 200 ppm) that I need to treat to remove the acetone so it can be discharged to the local POTW. Is there a simple effective way to do this?
Thanks.
