AP-42 ADDITIONS AND REVISIONS - RUBBER PRODUCTS MANUFACTURING
Citation:
Impact/Purpose:
Industry and state/local/tribal air agencies will use this product to estimate air emissions from this industry.
Description:
This project develops emission factors, etc., for the rubber products industry which are appended to AP-42. AP42 is a massive collection of material which describes processes which generate air emissions and presents emission factors and control effectiveness information. As resources permit and public interest dictates, sections are revised to reflect newer information or new sections are added for processes previously not addressed. For some processes, software models provided for estimating emissions because hand calculations with emission factors are not practical. Draft revisions are subjected to extensive external comment. The project also involves the creation and web publication of documents describing the technical basis for each new or revised emission factor.
