To: J. C. Ledvina A Communication From: Do*e: Subject: F. G. Jeans on June 15, 1989 VISIA SARA SECTION 313 REPORT - Revised to include Methanol Attached Is a summary table and the full report for SARA Section 313 reporting requirements. A summary table of 1987 emissions is also attached, Major differences between 1987 and 1988 numbers are listed below: Chemical VCM lbs 1987 90,480 lbs im 73,554 Category Air (stack emissions) VCM 29,521 3,008 Air (fugitive emissions) Barium 1,223 388 Offsite (landfilled) Lead 13,545 6,070 Offsite (landfilled) VCM air emissions were decreased In both the stack and fugitive categories. The stack emissions were reduced due to more stringent stripping procedures (higher temperature, longer time held under vacuum). The fugitive emissions were reduced as a result of a bagging study completed on the flanges and valves in VCM service. During 1988 a waste, vacuum/vent dust, was sold as a by-product. Instead of this material being landfilled, it was sold and used in compound production. The amount of barium and lead landfilled was reduced due to this change. Ammonia and chlorine both reported in 1987 did not meet minimum usage requirements for 1988. Sodium sulfate and methanol were not reported in 1987. If you have any questions, please refer them to me.
