Sec. 11.
(a) This section establishes emission limitations for fabric coating and vinyl coating. "Fabric coating" means the coating or saturation of a textile substrate with a knife, roll, or rotogravure coater to impart properties that are not initially present, such as strength, stability, water repellancy, or appearance. "Vinyl coating" means applying a functional, decorative, or protective topcoat or printing on vinyl coated fabric or vinyl sheets. Organisol and plastisol cannot be used to bubble emissions from vinyl printing and topcoating.(b) The owner or operator of a coating line subject to this section must implement one (1) of the following means of reducing volatile organic compounds emissions: (1) Limit the VOC content of coating to: (A) 0.35 kilograms of VOC per liter of coating (2.9 pounds per gallon) excluding water, delivered to the coating applicator from a fabric coating line; or(B) 0.58 kilograms of VOC per liter of coating (4.8 pounds per gallon) excluding water, delivered to the coating applicator from a vinyl coating line.(2) Install add on capture and control devices with an overall control efficiency of not less than 67.5 percent which shall meet:(A) capture efficiency of at least seventy-five percent (75%); and(B) control efficiency from the control device(s) of at least ninety percent (90%). In the case of incineration, the system shall have a destruction efficiency of ninety percent (90%) which will reduce VOC to carbon dioxide and water.Air Pollution Control Board; 326 IAC 8-2-11; filed Sep 23, 1988, 11:59 a.m.: 12 IR 258; readopted filed Jan 10, 2001, 3:20 p.m.: 24 IR 1477
