What is a Turn Around Document? (“TAD”) • The owner or operator of any facility that is a source of air contaminants shall submit a complete emission inventory annually on forms obtained from the Division. The TAD is the form used to report the Emissions Inventory data to Oklahoma DEQ • DEQ Form #100-730 (TAD) contains the annual emissions inventory for a particular facility, as well as other relevant information such as the facility location and address, ownership details, operating hours and process rates, etc. • Redbud is the preferred method to report emissions inventories and provides a complete printed Turn Around Document for records 2012 Emissions Inventory Workshop

Emission Units • Stack or Emission Release Point Data • Emission Processes • Fuel Combustion Data • Pollutants • Emission Factors • Controls • Emission Limits 2012 Emissions Inventory Workshop
Emission Unit • Every emission unit must have: • An emission release point (stack) • At least one process • If active, one or more pollutants 2012 Emissions Inventory Workshop

Emission Unit Status Operating–this emission unit operated all or part of the calendar year (Active at anytime during the year). Temporarily Shutdown–thisemission unit did not operate at all during the calendar year, but may restart at sometime in the future (no emissions during the calendar year). Permanently Shutdown–selectthis status if an emission unit has been removed, removed from service, or is permanently shutdown (no emissions during the calendar year). 2012 Emissions Inventory Workshop

Multiple ProcessesWithin an Emissions Unit • TANKS: if over 5 tons of emissions – separate breathing, working and flashing losses. Under 5 tons of emissions, losses can be combined using SCC 40400311 • ANY EQUIPMENT that utilizes different process material (coal, wood, natural gas) 2012 Emissions Inventory Workshop

Emission Information 2012 Emissions Inventory Workshop
Emission Information Contains information on all the pollutants Includes the methods of calculation, emission factors & units (numerator & denominator), and the amount of emissions as calculated from the reported activity, excess emission and control equipment details 2012 Emissions Inventory Workshop
Criteria Air Pollutants • Air pollutants for which an ambient air quality standard has been set (health based and/or environmentally-based criteria) • Air pollutants for which acceptable levels of exposurecan bedetermined (permissible levels) 2012 Emissions Inventory Workshop

Particulate Matter Two Categories – Dependent on Particle Size PM-10 and PM-2.5 2012 Emissions Inventory Workshop
Particulate Matter "PM-10" means allparticulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter of 10 micrometers or less (fine & coarse particle fractions combined) 2012 Emissions Inventory Workshop
Particulate Matter "PM-2.5" means particulate having an aerodynamic diameter equal to or less than 2.5 micrometers (i.e., the fine particle fraction) 2012 Emissions Inventory Workshop

Emission Factors 2012 Emissions Inventory Workshop
What Is An Emission Factor? An emission factor is a representative value that attempts to relate the quantity of a pollutant released to the atmosphere with an activity associated with the release of that pollutant. Emissions = EF x Process Rate These factors are usually expressed as the weight of pollutant divided by a unit weight, volume, distance, or duration of the activity emitting the pollutant. 2012 Emissions Inventory Workshop

Is an Emission Factor Needed? • Storage Tanks - use the Software TANKS • Landfills - use LANDGEM, a gas emissions model • Tank Flashing - Vasquez-Beggs equation • Glycol Dehydrator Reboiler - GRI-GLYCalc These are models with formulas using multiple variables. There is no single emission factor. 2012 Emissions Inventory Workshop
