Notes | To convert the emission factor from Lb/MMBtu to Lb/ton, multiply the emission factor by (HHV * 2000) where ""HHV"" is the higher heating value of the fuel (MMBtu/lb). Emission factor is for stokers and dutch ovens/fuel cells. Factors represent boilers with no controls or with particulate matter controls. CO factor for fluidized bed combustors is 1.700E-1 lb/MMBtu. |
