| Abstract |
The report provides an estimated inventory of boiler capacity and related pollutant emissions in the primary aluminum industry projected to 1980. The report supplements a separate systems study of all process-related emissions from the aluminum industry. Significant findings include: the limited boiler capacity is used for process steam; and the vast majority of the boilers are natural-gas-fired. The large amount of electric power used in aluminum processing is supplied from outside sources, rather than being generated on site. It is concluded that the boiler emissions are insignificant, compared to process emissions. |
