Pollutants Emissions from Stationary Sources and Consumer Products VOCs Control System

Absrtact
The results of this project includes: (1) Completion of hazardous air pollutants (HAP) control progress analysis in Taiwan. The results show that the control and regulations of dioxin are achievement. Some emission standards have been conducted and the control strategy is established for volatile organic toxics. Heavy metals and acid gases are also regulated in emission standards for some industries. But the emission and control of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons did not show progress. (2) Air toxics control strategy of US Federal Government, Germany, Netherlands, China, Japan have been collected as well as state/local program, i.e. California, Texas, and South Coast. The results shows that the technology-based and health risk-based are two strategies which used in HAP control. Target pollutant list, emission inventory, and ambient concentration monitoring are the basic elements in HAP control. (3) HAP control strategy for stationary source has been established. Control technology-based will be conducted in Stage I to reduce regulated air toxics emissions, and then to review the residual risk by following health-based strategy in Stage II. The control stages are promoted a rolling manner which means if the air toxics emission data is integrated then the control can be conducted early. (4) 46 priority evaluation air toxics species list has been proposed in this report. The methods of inspection, emission factors development, and reporting system for air toxics are also evaluated in this project. (5) A tiered approach for air toxics risk assessment which is promoted in CARB was conducted to establish the facility prioritization procedure of in this project. The results of case study of three industries showed that the procedure can be work and species emission data of each facility is critical. (6)Volatile organiccompounds compounds control strategy of architectural coatings and consumer products is established by following US and Cestablished strategy. Setting the VOC limit of product is the main control measure.
