Code of Federal Regulations (alpha)

CFR /  Title 40  /  Part 63  /  Sec. 63.2995 What equations must I use to determine compliance?

(a) Percent reduction for formaldehyde. To determine compliance with the percent reduction formaldehyde emission standard, use equation 1 of this section as follows:[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR11AP02.021 Where: Ef = Formaldehyde control efficiency, percent.Mi = Mass flow rate of formaldehyde entering the control

device, kilograms (pounds) per hour.Mo = Mass flow rate of formaldehyde exiting the control

device, kilograms (pounds) per hour.

(b) Formaldehyde mass emissions rate. To determine compliance with the kilogram per megagram (pound per ton) formaldehyde emission standard, use equation 2 of this section as follows:[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR11AP02.022 Where: E = Formaldehyde mass emissions rate, kilograms (pounds) of formaldehyde

per megagram (ton) of fiberglass mat produced.M = Formaldehyde mass emissions rate, kilograms (pounds) per hour.P = The wet-formed fiberglass mat production rate during the emissions

sampling period, including any material trimmed from the final

product, megagrams (tons) per hour.

(c) Urea-formaldehyde (UF) resin solids application rate. To determine the UF resin solids application rate, use equation 3 of this section as follows: [GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR11AP02.023 Where: UF solids/hour = UF resin solids application rate (pounds per hour).LOI = loss on ignition (weight faction), or pound of organic binder per

pound of mat.UFL = UF-to-latex ratio in the binder (mass fraction of UF resin solids

in total combined resin solids for UF and latex), or pound of

UF solids per pound of total resin solids (UF and latex).MW = weight of the final mat per square (pounds per roofing square).SQ = roofing squares produced per hour.
