The allowable discharge of particulate matter resulting from fuel burning operations shall be limited to the values obtained by use of Figure 1 and/or Part B. (For the purpose of determining heat input, total equipment capacity refers to total equipment capacity discharging through each stack. If a boiler has more than one (1) stack the total rated capacity will be the boiler rated capacity discharging to these stacks). Interpolation of Figure 1 for fuel burning operations of 1300 million British thermal units (Btu) per hour (Btu/hr) heat input and larger shall be accomplished by use of the equation:
E = | 57.84 P -0.637 |
where E = | the allowable emission rate in pounds per million Btu heat input, |
and P = | million Btu/hr heat input |
All fuel burning operations of 10 million Btu/hr heat input and smaller constructed prior to February 11, 1971, shall be allowed 0.8 pounds (lbs) per million Btu input.
