Section 215.521 - Definitions

In addition to the definitions of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 211, the following definitions apply to this Subpart:

"Air Oxidation Process": any unit process including ammoxidation and oxychlorination which uses air or a combination of air and oxygen as an oxidant in combination with one or more organic reactants to produce one or more organic compounds.

"Cost Effectiveness": the annual expense for cost of control of a given process stream divided by the reduction in emissions of organic material of thatstream.

"Flow (F)": Vent stream flowrate (scm/min) at a standard temperature of 20C.

"Full Operating Flowrate": Maximum operating capacity of the facility.

"Hourly Emissions (E)": Hourly emissions reported in kg/hr measured at full operating flowrate.

"Net Heating Value (H)": Vent stream net heating value (MJ/scm), where the net enthalpy per mole of offgas is based on combustion at 25° C and 760 mm Hg, but the standard temperature for determining the volume corresponding to one mole is 20° C, as in the definition of "Flow."

"Process vent Stream": an emission stream resulting from an air oxidation process.

"Total Resource Effectiveness Index (TRE)": Cost effectiveness in dollars per megagram of controlling any gaseous stream vented to the atmosphere from an air oxidation process divided by $1600/Mg, using the criteria and methods set forth in this Subpart and Appendices E and F.
