Section 335-3-4-.12 - Xylene Oxidation Process

(1)Applicability. The provisions of this Rule shall apply to all xylene oxidation processes. Each process system shall be considered as a separate process unit.

(2) No person shall cause or permit the emissions of particulate matter in any one hour from any xylene oxidation process in excess of the amount calculated by use of the equations:

E = 2.75 P0.62 E = 13.15 P0.16

(P<30 tons/hr) (P>30 tons/hr)

Where: E = Emissions in pounds per hour

P = Process weight per hour in tons per hour

(3) Where a thermal oxidizer is used for the reduction of process waste from a xylene oxidation process and no other waste streams are added, this thermal oxidizer shall be considered a part of the process system.
