Abstract |
The manufacture of chlorine and related products is generally known as the chlor-alkali industry. A description is given of the electrolytic process. Process information includes the discussion of normal process variables that affect the range and quantities of emissions and methods of controlling or reducing emissions. Supplemental material provides detailed emission-sampling and analytical methods. Information is provided on the range of emissions that occur under normal operating conditions and with the use of established methods and devices employed to limit or control emissions from the manufacture of chlorine and caustic. The emissions and operating data results from approximately 15 percent of present establishments, representing a broad range of plant capacities and both diaphragm and mercury cells. Most of these data have been gathered from production records of chlorine and caustic manufacturers. (Author) |
