OAR 340-220-0160 - Equations

Determining Sulfur Dioxide Emissions Using Material Balance

(3) SO2 = %S/100 x F x 2

Where:

◦  SO2 = Sulfur dioxide emissions for each quantity of fuel, tons

◦  %S = Percent sulfur in the fuel being burned, % (w/w).

◦  F = Amount of fuel burned, based on a quantity measurement, tons

◦  2 = Pounds of sulfur dioxide per pound of sulfur

(4)  SO2adj = SO2 x 0.97

Where:

◦  SO2adj = Sulfur dioxide adjusted for sulfur retention (40 CFR Part 60, Appendix A, Method 19, Section 5.2)

◦  SO2 = Sulfur dioxide emissions from each quantity burned (OAR 340-220- 0140(3))
