Abstract |
A program to measure vinyl chloride emissions from polyvinyl chloride fabrication plants was carried out. Four charcoal collectors were stationed around each of five PVC fabrication plants. 24-hour samples were collected daily for 14 days around each plant. Analysis of the collected samples was by gas chromotography. Most of the samples contained less than the minimum detectable amount of VCM. Portions of this document are not fully legible. |

Contents Notes |
A program to measure vinly chloride emissions from polyvinyl chloride fabrication plants was carried out. Four charcoal collectors were stationed around each of five PVC fabrication plants. 24-hour samples were collected daily for 14 days around each plant. Analysis of the collected samples was by GC. Most of the samples contained less than the minimum detectable amound of VCM (1 [mu]g/mp3s = ~ 0.5PPB 24-hour average). The maximum quantity of VCM found in any sample was 17.9 [mu]g/mp3s (= 7PPB) |
