Formula
Notes Lower value of range reflects emissions where spray condensers are used off the prepolymerizers and the polymerization reactors. Upper value reflects emissions where condensers are not used.
Multiple Factor Info 12 duplicate factors. This one is different because...
Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) production from dimethyl terephthalate (DMT). Entire plant. Lower value of range reflects emissions where spray condensers are used off the prepolymerizers and the polymerization reactors. Upper value reflects emissions where condensers are not used.
