and four boiler stacks. Because the boiler stack flow rates for large refineries could vary widely
based on the essentially fixed number of boiler stacks, two different model boiler stack diameters
were used for the large refineries. Boilers processing less than 4,800 MMBtu/cd per boiler were
assumed to have 5 ft diameter stacks; boilers processing 4,800 MMBtu/cd per boiler or more
were assumed to have 7.5 ft diameter stacks.
For both process heater and boiler stacks, the flow rate was calculated using
Equation 4-1. The stack velocity was calculated based on the flow rate and stack diameter using
Equation 4-2.

Based on this methodology, the average model process heater stack (one model stack per
refinery for all petroleum refineries) has a flow rate of 39,500 acfm and an average stack velocity
of 23 ft/sec. Similarly, the average model boiler stack (one model stack per refinery for all
petroleum refineries) has a flow rate of 58,000 acfm and an average stack velocity of 30 ft/sec.
4.1.3 Uncertainty in Estimates
The primary uncertainties are in the emission factors and the fuel use factors; there are
also uncertainties in the number and characteristics of stacks. Statistics for the emission factors
are provided in Tables 4-1 and 4-2. Care should be taken in using the uncertainties associated
with the metals analyses because only one test was performed for process heaters and only one
for boilers. Consequently, the statistics for metals presented in these tables illustrate the
uncertainty and variability of a single process in the very short term. In general, the emission
factors employed are considered central tendency values. However, for compounds with a detect
ratio of zero (or close to zero), the emission factors are based on the analytical detection limits.
Therefore, the emission factors for these compounds are biased high.
Section 4.0 Source Characteristics and Emission Estimates
4-11
Because both process heaters and boilers are large combustion units firing the same fuel,
the process heater and boiler emission factors are expected to be similar. It is encouraging to see
that the metal emission factors developed for process heaters and for boilers (i.e., two separate
tests) resulted in median or average emission factors that are generally within a factor of 2 or 3.
A more complete analysis of uncertainty can be made by reviewing the uncertainties associated
with the emission factors for VOCs for both process heaters and boilers and for the polycyclic
aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) for process heaters. By evaluating the standard deviations for the
emission factors for these chemicals, by comparing the median and average values within a test
group, and by comparing the same central tendency indicator across test groups (i.e., process
heaters versus boilers), the data provide compelling evidence that the central tendency emission
factors are accurate within a factor of 2 or 3.
As presented in Tables 4-1 and 4-2, the maximum and minimum values represent the
results of a single test run and not the results of a single source test (three-run average emission
factor). As such, the maximum and minimum emission factors likely accentuate the variability
of the process and the test methods rather than characterizing true process emissions variability.
For example, in a single test run (see emission factors for metals where the detect ratio is 1), the
maximum and minimum values roughly span an order of magnitude. These single sampling
events provide an assessment of the short-term variations in process operations and uncertainties
associated with the process emissions, but they may not provide good measures of long-term
emission variablity. Nonetheless, based on the data presented in Tables 4-1 and 4-2, the high and
low extreme values are roughly one order of magnitude greater than or less than the median
value, respectively.
Although very limited data were used to develop the RFG use factors, with some fuel use
factors based on single observations, only three processes significantly contribute to the overall
fuel use rates for most refineries. As seen in the sample calculation for a model refinery
presented in Table 4-4, CRU process heaters have the highest fuel use factor and generally
dominate the process heater fuel usage. This was expected because the CRU is an endothermic
reaction carried out in three to four reactors in series; before/between each reactor, the process
stream is heated in a process heater to raise (or re-raise) the temperature of the process stream
prior to the next reactor. The other major contributors to the refineries fuel usage are the crude
heaters and the boilers (which includes miscellaneous combustion vents) primarily because crude
capacity is generally significantly larger than other process capacities. Therefore, the best
measure of the accuracies and uncertainties associated with the overall RFG usage rates is the
fuel usage factors developed for these three contributors.
Based on the data presented in Table 4-3, the fuel use factors for crude and CRU process
heaters are very consistent. For CRUs, the factors range from 0.36 to 0.51; excluding the
apparently low value, the range is very tight (0.44 to 0.51). Based on the energy requirements of
the CRU, this tight range of fuel use factors is expected. Similarly, the crude unit process heater
fuel use factors are expected to be consistent because the energy required to preheat the crude
and operate the atmospheric distillation column should be universal for all refineries. Omitting
the uniquely low value, the crude process heater fuel use factors range only from 0.83 to 0.95.
Section 4.0 Source Characteristics and Emission Estimates
4-12
The boiler (and miscellaneous combustion source) fuel use factors exhibit a broader range
of values than the crude and CRU process heaters; the high-low values differ from the central
tendency value by a factor of 2.5. Although this may be partially due to differences in how
refineries characterized their emission sources (i.e., which sources could be attributed to specific
processes and which were included as miscellaneous sources), a given refinery may likely have
significantly different steam generation and use requirements that affect the magnitude of its
boiler plant (e.g., whether the CCU vent stream is used to generate steam). Consequently, the
boiler fuel use rate factors are likely accurate only to a factor of 2 or 3. However, because the
boiler contributes roughly 30 percent of the total RFG usage, the overall refinery fuel use rate is
more certain, based on the tight range of factors for crude and CRU process heaters. The overall
fuel usage rate for a given refinery is expected to be within 50 percent. (Based on the similarity
of emission factors for process heaters and boilers, minimal uncertainty is introduced by
including miscellaneous RFG combustion sources with the boiler fuel use estimates.)
In summary, the emission factors are estimated to be accurate within a factor of 2 to 3,
and the overall fuel usage rate for a given refinery is expected to be within 50 percent. Taken
together, the combined uncertainty of the process heater and boiler emission estimates is roughly
a factor of 3 to 5. This uncertainty directly affects the emission estimates of the PAHs; other
sources of PAH emissions are minor compared to the combustion sources. Process heater and
boiler emissions of volatile organic HAPs are a very small contributor to the refinerys overall
emissions of volatile organic HAPs. Metal HAP emissions from combustion sources have a
direct impact on the total metal HAP emissions for refineries that do not have a CCU. For
refineries with CCUs, the CCU metal HAP emissions are generally a factor of 2 to 5 times higher
than the process heater and boiler emission estimates, so that the uncertainties in the risk
associated with metal HAP emissions are more closely linked to the uncertainties in the CCU
emission estimates.
4.2 Flares and Thermal Oxidizers
Flares and thermal oxidizers are used at petroleum refineries to destroy organic
compounds in vapor streams of purged products or waste products that are vented from various
processes. For example, flares are commonly used on the vapor recovery system associated with
marine vessel loading and some process vents, and thermal oxidizers are used to destroy volatile
organic compounds (VOCs) from enclosed wastewater treatment systems. Most flares have a
natural gas pilot flame and use the fuel value of the vapor to sustain combustion. Thermal
oxidizers (vapor incinerators) often use natural gas or other fuel to destroy vapors that often
would not support combustion alone.
4.2.1 Emission Estimation Methodology
Accurate estimates of emissions from flares are difficult to obtain because they do not
lend themselves to conventional emission testing techniques and only a few attempts have been
made to characterize flare emissions. Some EPA tests have been attempted, and the results were
used in AP-42 (U.S. EPA, 1995a; Section 13.5) to estimate a destruction efficiency of 98 percent

and an emission factor of 0.14 lb total hydrocarbons per million Btu. This emission factor
requires site-specific knowledge of the energy consumption of each flare, and the total
hydrocarbons must be speciated to obtain estimates of HAP emissions. There are insufficient
data to apply this technique to each of the 155 petroleum refineries.
Site-specific estimates, however, were obtained for seven Louisiana refineries from their
Title V permit applications and are summarized in Table 4-6. The company estimates were
generated using AP-42 procedures and, generally, speciation based on the vapor composition.
Section 4.0 Source Characteristics and Emission Estimates
4-14
The estimates for BP-Belle Chasse (now Tosco) were accompanied by the most complete
description of how they were done. A summary is provided below for the flare associated with
marine vessel loading:
First, a vessel and material-specific emission factor is generated from the AP-42
methodology (Section 5.2) for loading petroleum liquid. Then, the total VOC emission
rates are calculated by multiplying the appropriate emission factor by the product
throughput. Speciated emissions of the VOC are calculated by multiplying the species
weight (from site-specific composition data) by the total VOC emission rate. The heat
input is calculated from the fuel usage rate and vapor heating value. Finally, VOC and
species emissions are calculated from the AP-42 procedures for flares (Section 13.5).
The best information on hand to estimate emissions from flares and thermal oxidizers is
the site-specific estimates shown in Table 4-6. These results were extrapolated to other refineries
by assuming that emissions from flares are proportional to the size of the refineries, i.e., larger
refineries generate and burn more waste vapors in flares than do small refineries, assuming that
operating practices are equivalent. The emission rates were normalized by the crude oil capacity
to generate emission factors in tpy of HAP per barrel (bbl) of crude oil capacity. The
recommended emission factors are shown in the bottom half of Table 4-6, and most are within an
order of magnitude of the extreme values that were derived.
The application of the emission factor is straightforward, as illustrated below for benzene
for a refinery with a capacity of 100,000 bbl/day:
Benzene emissions (tpy) = 100,000 bbl/day 1E-5 tpy/bbl/day = 1.0 tpy.
4.2.2 Source Characteristics
Site-specific information was obtained for 27 flares and thermal oxidizers at seven
refineries. The number of flares at each facility is given in Table 4-7. The larger refineries
appear to have more than smaller refineries. To extrapolate to other refineries, a total of four
flares were assigned to refineries less than 200,000 bbl/day capacity, and a total of six (four flares
and two thermal oxidizers) were assigned for the larger refineries.
Source characteristics for flares and thermal oxidizers are also given in Table 4-7. All of
the flares and thermal oxidizers are elevated (i.e., no ground-level flares were reported). Default
values were chosen from the median values of 150 ft in height, 4 ft in diameter, and a
temperature of 1,600F. To estimate a default volumetric flow rate, the reported flow rates were
examined and normalized by crude oil capacity. A value of 5 acfm per bbl/day was used to
estimate volumetric flow rate. The linear velocity (ft/s) was then calculated from the volumetric
flow rate, diameter, and number of flares at each plant.
4.2.3 Uncertainty in Estimates
As discussed earlier, emission estimates for flares are highly uncertain because the
emissions are difficult to impossible to measure. The emission factors derived in this approach
Section 4.0 Source Characteristics and Emission Estimates
4-15
introduce variability when they are applied to other refineries. Even if the site-specific estimates
in Table 4-6 are accurate, there can be an order of magnitude of variability in applying these site-
specific estimates to other refineries for which there are no data. However, the emission factors
are a best estimate of the midrange value, and no attempt was made to bias them high or low. In
addition, the site-specific emission estimates for flares indicates they are not a significant source
of emissions relative to other sources, such as fugitive equipment leaks, wastewater, and storage

tanks; consequently, the error in flare emissions should not result directly in large errors for the
total facility emissions.
Several factors affect the uncertainty in emission estimates for flares. These factors
include the HAP concentration in the vapor being flared, its variability, the destruction
efficiency, formation of products of incomplete combustion, combustion conditions, and how
uniformly they are maintained.
For the source characteristics, the information in Table 4-7 appears to be a reasonable
sample, and the refinery size spans an order of magnitude (from about 50,000 to 500,000
bbl/day). Consequently, the statistical summary in Table 4-7 should provide insight into the
variability of source characteristics.
4.3 Wastewater Collection and Treatment Systems
The wastewater treatment plant is typically a collection of treatment processes located in
a common area and generally distinct from the process area. The wastewater treatment plant
receives wastewater from the oil-water separator and various process wastewater and storm water
collection points contained in the process area. Previous experience and emission modeling of
wastewater collection and treatment suggest that a large portion of the emissions from
wastewater occur during the collection phase. Emissions from both the collection and treatment
of wastewater are subject to the requirements of the Benzene Waste Operations National
Emission Standard for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) (40 CFR, Part 61, Subpart FF). All
refineries that have more than 10 megagrams per year (Mg/yr) of benzene in their wastewater are
required under this rule to employ certain wastewater collection and treatment equipment to
reduce the emissions of benzene.
4.3.1 Emission Estimation Methodology
The uncontrolled or pre-Benzene Waste Operations NESHAP (pre-BWON) emissions
were estimated following the methodology described in EPAs Locating and Estimating Air
Emissions from Sources of Benzene (hereafter, the Benzene L&E document; U.S. EPA, 1998a).
This methodology provides estimates of the amount of wastewater produced per unit throughput
of various refinery processes (average flow factors) along with an estimate of that process
wastewater streams benzene content (see Table 4-8). The average flow factors are simply
multiplied by the corresponding process capacities to calculate the rate of wastewater production
for each process. These wastewater production rates are multiplied by the average benzene
concentration for each stream to calculate the loading rate of benzene into the wastewater system
by process. These process wastewater loading rates were summed to calculate the total loading
rate of benzene into the wastewater system. This total loading rate was multiplied by 0.85
(fraction emitted) to calculate the uncontrolled emission rate. (Benzene loadings from methyl
ethyl ketone (MEK) dewaxing units were several orders of magnitude less than those from other
processes so that no error was introduced in not using the 0.49 emission factor suggested for that
process (see Table 4-8).)

For some processes, the average flow factors and average wastewater benzene
concentrations had to be estimated (e.g., aromatics and oxygenates); for other activities, the
process throughput had to be estimated in order to use the given flow factors (e.g., product
blending and tank draw down). The assumptions used to make these estimates are outlined
below:
The benzene wastewater loading rate for aromatics was estimated using an
average flow factor of 3 (because a wide variety of processes had production rates
between 2.5 and 3) and a benzene wastewater concentration based on the value for
CRUs (the highest benzene content of all process wastewater streams except tank
drawdown).
The benzene wastewater loading rate for oxygenates was estimated using the
average flow factor and average benzene concentration value for full-range
distillation.
The benzene wastewater loading rate for coke plants was estimated using the
average flow factor and average benzene concentration value for SRU.
The product blending and tank drawdown throughputs were estimated as the
larger of either
The crude capacity / 12, or
(CCU capacity) / 4 + (oxygenates production) / 4 + (CRU capacity) / 8 .
The MEK dewaxing throughput was estimated as the lube oil production rate.
More than 30 percent of the total benzene loading is produced from crude distillation.
Thermal cracking and catalytic reforming are responsible for another 32 percent of the total
benzene load to wastewater. Vacuum distillation, catalytic cracking, hydrotreating, aromatics,
asphalt production, and product blending each contribute between 4 and 8 percent of the total
benzene loading. All other processes contribute roughly 1 percent or less to the total benzene
loading. Therefore, most of the assumptions outlined above have little impact on the total
benzene loading rate to the wastewater treatment system.
The benzene loading and emission estimates following this procedure are expected to
represent uncontrolled or pre-BWON emissions. The uncontrolled emissions were compared to
90-day reports prior to the implementation of the BWON. The range of refinery emissions and
the total nationwide emissions for benzene from wastewater using the methodology described
above compared well with the pre-BWON benzene emissions. Review of 90-day reports after
implementation of the BWON and a review of the emissions reported by the Louisiana refineries
suggest that refineries subject to the BWON have wastewater benzene emissions of between 5
and 10 tons per year (tpy). Therefore, a hypothetical correlation was developed to calculate the
benzene emissions from wastewater after implementation of the BWON.
Section 4.0 Source Characteristics and Emission Estimates
4-19
If a refinerys total benzene loading rate was 10 tpy or less, then the uncontrolled
emissions rate (i.e., 85 percent of benzene loading rate) was output for that refinery directly. If a
refinerys total benzene loading rate exceeded 10 tpy, then the uncontrolled emissions rate was
adjusted as follows to calculate a controlled emission rate after implementation of the BWON:

Once the benzene emission rates were estimated, these emission rates were used to
project the emissions of other compounds. The average concentration of liquid refinery streams
as developed for the refinery MACT I (Murphy, 1993) was used as a starting point for these
projections (see Table 4-9). To account for the various compounds affinity for water, the
average concentrations were divided by the octanol-water partition coefficient to estimate
equilibrium wastewater concentrations. These equilibrium wastewater concentrations were
normalized by the calculated equilibrium wastewater concentration for benzene to develop a
wastewater concentration ratio (also provided in Table 4-9).

Not only do the different chemicals have a different affinity for water, they also have a
different affinity for volatilization from wastewater, as seen by the different values for their
Henrys law constant (HLC). Two different wastewater treatment systems (one with high
biological activity and one with low biological activity) were developed and projected 85 percent
emissions for benzene using the CHEMDAT8 model for aerated tanks (U.S. EPA, 1994). The
emission fraction for the other compounds was calculated and compared to the emission fraction
for benzene. Based on these evaluations, an emission ratio (relative to benzene) was established.
By combining the concentration ratio and the emission ratio, a multiplying factor was developed
to project the emissions of other compounds based on the estimated emissions of benzene (see
Table 4-9).
4.3.2 Source Characteristics
The wastewater treatment in the petroleum refinery industry is typically effected by
biological treatment in activated sludge systems. These systems generally operate a series of
open tanks such that the wastewater treatment system is best characterized as a large area source.
Some refineries may employ a steam stripper to remove benzene and other VOCs prior to other
wastewater treatment operations; for these refineries, a portion of the total benzene emissions
would originate from a stack.
Previous emission modeling of wastewater collection and treatment suggests that a large
portion of the emissions from wastewater occur in the collection phase. These collection areas
are located within the process equipment area, whereas the wastewater treatment plant is
generally a distinct portion of the refinery. The collection area emissions are again essentially all
area source emissions. For this application, half of the estimated wastewater emissions were
Section 4.0 Source Characteristics and Emission Estimates
4-21
assumed to occur from areas within the process equipment and half from the actual wastewater
treatment plant area.
The area of the wastewater treatment plant was estimated based on three model refinery
plot plans developed by EPA (U.S. EPA, 1978). The model refinery plot plans were also used to
estimate the area of the wastewater collection system within the process area of the plant based
on oil-water separators located within the equipment area. From this analysis, three model
wastewater treatment areas were established. The collection areas estimated were very similar to
the wastewater treatment plant area, so the wastewater treatment areas were used for both the
wastewater and the collection areas. Table 4-10 provides the model wastewater treatment areas
and the refinery crude capacity ranges used to assign the model areas to each refinery.

4.3.3 Uncertainty in Estimates
Many assumptions were used to develop the emission estimates from wastewater. The
L&E methodology appeared to provide only uncontrolled emission estimates for benzene, and
a simple correlation was used to reduce the refinerys benzene emissions to between 5 and 10 tpy
(depending on its uncontrolled emissions) if the facility was anticipated to be subject to the
BWON. Finally, the benzene emissions were used to project the emission of other compounds
using theoretical partitioning considerations. Given these assumptions, it is difficult to assess the
uncertainties in the model without a comparison of the model results with those reported or
measured at selected refineries.
Table 4-11 provides a comparison of emissions of benzene, toluene, and hexane
calculated from the model with those reported for nine Louisiana refineries in their Title V
applications. The emissions for benzene reflect inaccuracies in the L&E method and the BWON
correction correlation. The emissions for toluene and hexane provide insight into the uncertainty
of the combined methodology for nonbenzene compounds. Of the 13 compounds for which
wastewater emissions are projected, benzene has the highest emission potential (as indicated by
the multiplication factor) and the highest unit risk factor. Therefore, the benzene emissions will
drive the risk from wastewater. Except for the one very low benzene emission rate reported by
Section 4.0 Source Characteristics and Emission Estimates

Murphy Oil, the modeled benzene emissions are within a factor of 2 of the reported benzene
wastewater emissions. The emission estimates of toluene also appear to be within a factor of 2,
but toluene partitioning and volatility are reasonably similar to those for benzene. The reported
emissions for hexane confirm that hexane wastewater emissions are significantly lower than
those for benzene, but perhaps not to the extent predicted by the model. These lower hexane
wastewater emissions can only be attributed to its lower affinity for water (hexane has higher
concentrations in process streams and is more volatile from wastewater than benzene), so the oil-
water partitioning is important. Based on this comparison, the REM nonbenzene wastewater
emission estimates are likely accurate to within a factor of 5, whereas the benzene wastewater
emissions, which drive the wastewater risk, are accurate to within a factor of 2.
There is also uncertainty in the precise split of emissions between the collection system
(area within the process equipment) and the physical wastewater treatment plant. The 50:50 split
is a rough approximation based on engineering judgment and experience with wastewater
emission model results that consider the collection system components in series with the
wastewater treatment tanks. Based on this experience, the total wastewater emission result is
expected to have more uncertainty than is associated with the 50:50 split assumption. Therefore,
the model emission estimate for the collection system for benzene is considered to be accurate to
within a factor of 2, and the emission estimate for the wastewater treatment system is considered
to be accurate within a factor of 2.

4.4 Cooling Towers
Cooling water is used in refineries in heat exchangers and condensers to cool or condense
various product streams. The cooling water is usually sent to cooling towers where it is cooled to
ambient temperature, then recycled to the process or to refrigeration units for additional cooling
before reuse.
4.4.1 Emission Estimation Methodology
VOCs are picked up by cooling water when leaks occur in heat exchangers or condensers.
Product on the high-pressure side leaks through the exchanger and contaminates the water.
VOCs are then stripped from the water and emitted in the cooling tower. Emissions on the order
of tons per year can occur for even low levels of contamination because refineries use large
volumes of cooling water. For example, a refinery with 100,000 bbl/day of crude oil capacity
typically uses about 170 MMgal/day cooling water (from AP-42 (U.S. EPA, 1995a), the cooling
water rate is about 40 times the crude oil capacity). If this water is contaminated with easily
strippable hydrocarbons at 1 ppm, the emission potential is 260 tpy.
The emission estimating methodology for cooling towers is given in AP-42 (U.S. EPA,
1995a; Section 5.1). For this assessment, the uncontrolled emission factor of 6 lb of total
hydrocarbons (THC) per million gallons of water (MM gal) was used (a concentration in the
water of 0.7 ppm). The controlled emission factor, based on monitoring for hydrocarbons and
fixing leaks when they occur, is 0.7 lb/MM gal, a reduction of 88 percent. For petroleum
refineries, the AP-42 section recommends a cooling water rate of 40 times the crude oil capacity.
In terms of crude oil capacity, the emission factor for THC translates to 0.0018 tpy THC per
bbl/day crude oil capacity.
Site-specific information on the composition of process streams cooled in heat
exchangers and condensers is not currently available. However, an average composition of all
process streams at a refinery was developed to estimate emissions for the Petroleum Refinery
MACT I (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart CC). This average composition was used to speciate the THC
and to generate the HAP emission factors given in Table 4-12.
An example calculation is given below for benzene from cooling towers at a refinery with
a capacity of 100,000 bbl/day of crude oil:
Benzene (tpy) = 100,000 bbl/day 3E-5 tpy/bbl/day = 3 tpy.
4.4.2 Source Characteristics
To develop source characteristics, the EPA document, Development of Petroleum
Refinery Plot Plans, was reviewed (U.S. EPA, 1978). For a refinery of 200,000 bbl/day crude
oil capacity, the document suggests a total of five cooling towers with a total flow rate of 8 MM
bbl/day and a total cross-sectional area of 46,737 ft
2
. The total cross-sectional area of all cooling
towers is expected to be a function of refinery size (i.e., larger refineries have more or larger

cooling towers). For this analysis, the total cross-sectional area of cooling towers at each refinery
was estimated from 0.2 ft
2
per bbl/day crude oil capacity based on the refinery described above.
The height for cooling towers at the 200,000 bbl/day refinery ranged from 20 ft to 30 ft.
For comparison, the default height assigned in the 1996 NTI database was 32 ft. For this
assessment, a default height of 30 ft was used. The only readily available information on exit
velocity was the default value in the NTI 11 ft/s.
4.4.3 Uncertainty in Estimates
There is a great deal of uncertainty in the emission estimates for cooling towers because
of the scarcity of data. Emissions will depend on many site-specific features for which we have
few data, such as the composition of products streams and water usage rates or measured
contamination rates in cooling towers. If a given refinery has a program in place to detect leaks
into cooling tower water and take corrective actions when necessary, the emission estimates may
be somewhat conservative (high). We also have few data on the source characteristics of cooling
towers, and these features likely vary from refinery to refinery. To reduce or quantify the
uncertainty associated with these estimates for cooling towers, much more detailed, site-specific
information is needed.
The permit applications for five of the Louisiana refineries contained emission estimates
for cooling towers. Two of the refineries stated they used the controlled emission factor from
Section 4.0 Source Characteristics and Emission Estimates
4-25
EmR EqLR N BzConc
Bz C level C level C
=
, ,
4-4
AP-42, and the others also appear to be based on the controlled emission factor. The estimates
they provided for benzene ranged from 0.2 to 1.2 tpy. For comparison, the approach described
earlier would estimate a range of 1.5 to 15 tpy for uncontrolled emissions for refineries of similar
size. This comparison suggests that if most refineries actually have a leak detection and repair
program in place to reduce cooling water contamination, then the estimates derived in this
section are high (perhaps by a factor of 10) because the emissions are assumed to be
uncontrolled. Based on the uncontrolled emission factors employed, cooling towers contribute
roughly 20 percent of the refineries benzene emissions. For certain chemicals, such as 2,2,4-
Trimethylpentune, the contribution of uncontrolled cooling tower emissions can approach
50 percent of the refineries total 2,2,4-Trimethylpentane emissions.
4.5 Fugitive Equipment Leaks
Equipment leaks are small point or area sources that occur throughout the process area of
the refinery. Because of the large number of potentially leaking equipment components for any
given process, let alone the entire refinery, fugitive equipment leaks are most appropriately
modeled as a large area source. Leaking equipment may directly release gas or liquid; it is
generally assumed that all released liquid eventually evaporates so that 100 percent of equipment
leaks contribute to refinery emissions.
4.5.1 Emission Estimation Methodology
The fugitive equipment leak emissions were estimated using the revised equipment leak
protocol developed for the petroleum refinery industry (U.S. EPA, 1995b) and model refinery
equipment component counts and process streams composition data for benzene presented in
EPAs L&E document (U.S. EPA, 1998a). The total fugitive equipment leak emissions
calculated for benzene were then used to estimate the emissions for other HAPs using the
average liquid stream compositions for refinery streams developed for the refinery MACT I
standard (Murphy, 1993).
Table 4-13 presents the equipment leak rates for the revised refinery protocol (U.S. EPA,
1995b). These leak rates are used with equipment component counts and process stream
concentrations to estimate emissions according to Equation 4-4:

The other equipment type was developed from instruments, loading arms, pressure relief devices, stuffing boxes,
vents, compressors, dump lever arms, diaphrams, drains, hatches, meters, and polished rods. This other
equipment type should be applied to any equipment other than connectors, flanges, open-ended lines, pumps, or
valves
The median equipment component counts for small refineries (less than 50,000 bbl/cd)
and large refineries (greater than 50,000 bbl/cd) as presented in the Benzene L&E document
(U.S. EPA, 1998a) are presented in Tables 4-14 and 4-15, respectively. The Benzene L&E
document also presents average process stream benzene concentrations based on the stream type
or service (i.e., if the process stream is a gas, a light liquid, or a heavy liquid). These data are
presented in Table 4-16.
Given these data, the equipment leak emissions for benzene can be calculated for each
process in the model refineries once the number of leaking components is determined. For the
preliminary analysis, it was assumed that 97 percent of the components were not leaking (i.e.,
used the default zero leak rate), 2 percent were leaking at the 10,000 ppmv pegged emission rate,
and 1 percent were leaking at the 100,000 ppmv pegged emission rate. There is some disparity
between the leak rates reported by refineries and those observed by EPA. For 17 refineries
investigated by the EPA, the average leak rate reported by the facilities was 1.3 percent, whereas
the average leak rate determined by EPA (and confirmed by the facilities) was 5 percent (U.S.
EPA, 1999). The assumed 3 percent leak rate is a midrange value between these two reported
values.

Some processes did not have any benzene concentration data. These processes were
assumed to have benzene concentrations of 0.01 percent, except for asphalt. The benzene
concentration in asphalt (all streams) was assumed to be 0.03 percent based on the weight
percent of benzene in asphalt product as reported in the Benzene L&E document (U.S. EPA,
1998a).
Using the data from Tables 4-13 through 4-16 and the 97, 2, and 1 percent leak rate
assumption, the benzene emissions could be calculated for each process in the model refineries.
The results of these calculations are presented in Table 4-17. These emission rates were applied
to each refinery on a process-specific basis. That is, if a refinery operates two CCUs, then the
CCU equipment leaks were calculated for each CCU and summed together for that refinery. In
order to do this, small and large processes needed to be defined. Using the relative U.S.
capacities of crude and other processes as reported in the 2000 Worldwide Refining Survey
(Stell, 2000a), average process-specific capacity limits were derived based on a refinery with a
crude capacity of 50,000 bbl/cd. These process-specific capacities used to distinguish small
and large processes are presented in Table 4-17. The small process emission rate was
Section 4.0 Source Characteristics and Emission Estimates

applied when the refinerys process capacity was at or below the cutoff limit; large process
emission rates were applied when the process capacity exceeded the cutoff limit. Using process-
specific capacities provided a more facility-specific analysis based on the presence, number, and
capacity of the individual processes at the refinery.

Once the total benzene equipment leaks emissions were calculated for a given refinery
(based on the type, number, and size of process units), the total benzene emissions were
multiplied by a concentration ratio to estimate the equipment leak emissions of other compounds.
The concentration ratio was based on the average composition of all liquid waste streams as
presented in a MACT I project memorandum (Murphy, 1993). The reported average
concentrations and the calculated concentration ratio are presented in Table 4-18.
4.5.2 Source Characteristics
All fugitive process equipment leaks were characterized as one large area emission source
originating from the process area. The process area was estimated based on model refinery plot
plans developed by EPA (U.S. EPA, 1978). The three model plants and their respective process
equipment areas are provided below in Table 4-19.
4.5.3 Uncertainty in Estimates
There are several sources of uncertainty in the REM equipment leak emission estimates,
including the equipment component counts, the benzene stream composition, the equipment leak
emission rates, the assumptions of leaking frequency, and the ratios used to translate benzene
emissions to the emissions of other compounds. The uncertainty resulting from equipment
component counts is one source of uncertainty but appears to be limited based on a comparison
of the benzene emission factors developed for the two model plant/process sizes (most small and
large benzene emission factors are within approximately 30 percent of each other, with a few
varying by a factor of 2). Process benzene concentrations are also uncertain. Although the raw
data used to develop the model stream composition were not available for review, average waste
stream compositions for these processes probably do not vary by more than a factor of 2 between
refineries. The largest uncertainties lie with the assumptions used regarding the equipment leak
rates, the emission factor developed for aromatics units (where no equipment component counts
or stream composition data were available, but where benzene concentration could potentially
approach 100 weight percent), and the concentration ratios used to project the emissions of
compounds other than benzene.
Based on the number of assumptions used to develop the emission estimates from
equipment leaks, the equipment leak emission estimates could vary by a factor of 5 or more. To
better understand the uncertainty in the process equipment leak emission estimates, a complete
review of the data used to develop the component counts and process stream concentrations, as
well as Method 21 data on equipment leaks (to better determine the range of percent leaking
components), would be needed. By defining the range of values, a Monte Carlo or boot strap
analysis could be performed to characterize the uncertainty in the final equipment leak emission
factors. However, a comparison of the equipment leak emissions estimated for the nine
Louisiana refineries for which Title V permit application data were available provides a simpler
method of assessing the inaccuracies in the emission estimation methodology. Table 4-20
presents the reported equipment leak emissions with those calculated using the methodology
described in this section. The REM equipment leak emission estimates for benzene agree better

with reported emissions than the layers of uncertainty in the analysis suggest; many of the
predicted emissions are within 30 percent of the reported values, and the largest discrepancies are
roughly a factor of 2.
However, based on the comparison of refinery reported-equipment leak rates versus
equipment leak rates determined by EPA (U.S. EPA, 1999), the equipmet leak rates reported by
the refineries for which we have data may underestimate actual equipment leak emissions if they
Section 4.0 Source Characteristics and Emission Estimates
4-33
are similarly underreported. The data in Table 4-20 also indicate that the emission estimates for
HAPs other than benzene are more highly variable; the inaccuracies for these compounds
generally vary between a factor of 2 and a factor of 5. This is somewhat expected because the
benzene emissions used process-specific benzene concentrations, and the ratio of the HAP
concentration to benzene will vary by process. It might be possible to improve the emission
estimates for these other compounds if more process-specific compositional data were available.
Nonetheless, because benzene is the compound with the highest risk factor of the compounds
listed in Table 4-18, these additional data may not be critical to improving the overall risk
analysis.

4.6 Tanks
Tanks are used to store crude oil prior to refining, intermediates between refining
processes, and refined product streams (e.g., gasoline, diesel fuel, fuel oil, etc.). Nearly all
storage tanks in the petroleum refinery industry used to store liquid material have been converted
to floating-roof tanks. As the fluid levels in the tank rise and fall, a thin film of the contained
liquid may remain on the tank walls and evaporate. Because storage tanks in the petroleum
industry are generally 30 to 40 feet in diameter, these tank emissions occur over a reasonably
large surface area. Additionally, except for a few process storage tanks, the storage tanks are
generally located together in what is referred to as the tank farm. Consequently, the tank farm
can be considered one large area source and all tank emissions are assumed to come from this
area.
Section 4.0 Source Characteristics and Emission Estimates
4-34
4.6.1 Emission Estimation Methodology
Emission factors for tanks were developed from the Title V permit data reported for the
Louisiana refineries. Based on a preliminary review of the data, four classes of tanks were
designated based on the differences in the emissions from these tanks and the availability of data
to characterize and apply the resulting emission factors. The four classes are
Crude storage tanks;
Light and intermediate product tanks (e.g., gasoline, diesel, jet fuel, and fuel oil);
Heavy product tanks (lube oil and asphalt); and
Aromatic product tanks.
Emissions reported for intermediate process storage tanks were included with the light and
intermediate product tank emission totals.
In order to develop and employ emission factors for storage tanks, the throughput of
crude, light and intermediate products, heavy products, and aromatic products was needed.
Crude capacity and aromatic production capacity were used to normalize crude and aromatic tank
emissions. A few refineries report no crude capacity but have significant capacities for other
processes. To estimate tank emissions, the crude capacity was estimated as the sum of the
reported vacuum and coking capacities for refineries with no reported crude capacity. The
heavy-product tank emissions were normalized by the sum of the lube oil and asphalt production
capacities. Light and intermediate production capacities were estimated based on the crude
capacity (as calculated for tanks) minus the heavy product and aromatic product capacities. This
methodology was devised based on product production rates reported in a limited number of the
Title V applications; the data reviewed are summarized in Table 4-21. Because the lights plus
heavies were essentially equal to the crude processing rate (except for the anomalous lube
production rate reported by Murphy Oil), the crude minus the aromatics and heavies was
used to estimate light and intermediate production capacities. Aromatic tanks were treated
separately because these tanks have a much higher emission rates based on the high HAP
concentrations of the aromatic material stored.
Using the data reported in the 2000 Worldwide Refining Survey (Stell, 2000a), the crude
capacities and production rates for each refinery were used to calculate the throughput rates for
each tank class. These throughput rates were used in conjunction with the reported emissions
data for tanks, to develop emission factors for the different types of tanks. The Louisiana
refinery emissions data, as extracted from the Title V permit applications, are presented in
Appendix A. The emissions factors were calculated for each tank class for each refinery
reporting tank data; these emission factors, along with associated statistics, are provided in
Table 4-22.
Although all nine Louisiana refineries had reported storage tank emissions in their Title V
permit applications, only six of the refineries provided sufficient detail to divide or classify the
reported emissions into the four classes of storage tanks needed for the emissions model. For

Average based on the two nonzero emission factors
crude and light-product tanks, six refineries reported data for most of the more volatile organic
chemicals; only one refinery reported any semivolatile emissions from the light-product tanks. It
is uncertain whether the semivolatile tank emissions from the one refinery were based on some
standard emission factor, a site-specific emission estimate, or actual measurements. These
emissions were reported for some fixed-roof distillates tanks. Based on the lack of
semivolatile emissions from the other light-end tanks, it was decided to use the average emission
factor, including the zero values for the other refineries.
For the heavy-product storage tanks, only two of the three refineries that had heavy
production capacity (as calculated using the 2000 Worldwide Refining Survey data). A third
refinery, Murphy Oil, had reported emissions of naphthalene and PAH/polynuclear aromatic
hydrocarbons (PNAs) from heavy oil tanks. Although this refinery does not have heavies
Section 4.0 Source Characteristics and Emission Estimates
4-38
production, as calculated in the model, Murphy Oil had reported heavy production (albeit a
questionably high value) in its Title V Permit application. Consequently, either the average or
the maximum value reported for the two refineries projected to have heavies emissions was
used; and only the emissions for PAH/PNAs reported by Murphy Oil were used to develop an
emission factor. For this emission factor, heavies production was estimated as 1 percent of the
crude capacity.
All three refineries expected to have aromatic production reported emissions from their
aromatics product tanks. However, each of these refineries produced a different mix of
aromatics. One refinery only produced benzene; one refinery produced benzene and xylene; and
the third produced toluene and xylenes. The limited available data were assumed to be
representative of the different mixes of product so that the emission factors developed included
zeros for the refineries that did not make that product.
Given the emission factors presented in Table 4-22, the storage tank emissions can be
calculated using the production capacity data reported in the 2000 Worldwide Refining Survey
(Stell, 2000a) for each storage tank class. The emissions for each storage tank class were then
summed to develop the total tank farm emissions.
4.6.2 Source Characteristics
The emissions from the storage tanks were modeled as one large area source
representative of the total tank farm area. Model tank farm areas were estimated based on model
refinery plot plans developed by EPA (U.S. EPA, 1978). The three model plants and their
respective tank farm areas are provided below in Table 4-23.

4.6.3 Uncertainty in Estimates
Table 4-22 provides some measure of the uncertainty in the storage tank emissions.
Based on a comparison of the average and median values for crude tanks, it appears that different
crude stocks vary significantly in aromatic content, while the hexane content is fairly consistent
(save one very low value). For nearly all refineries, the lights throughput capacity is essentially
equal to the refinerys crude capacity, and benzene drives the risks for the organic HAPs emitted
Section 4.0 Source Characteristics and Emission Estimates
4-39
from storage tanks. The emissions from light-product storage tanks are roughly an order of
magnitude greater than the emissions from crude storage tanks. Therefore, because emissions are
being modeled from the entire tank farm, the uncertainties in the crude storage tank emission
factors are not of particular concern.
The central tendency indicators for VOCs from light-product storage tanks agree well,
and these central tendency indicators are generally within a factor of 2 of the maximum value and
a factor of 4 of the minimum value. Again, for most refineries and essentially all large refineries
(i.e., those with catalytic cracking, reforming, or other refinery stream upgrade processes), the
emissions from the light-product tanks will dwarf the emissions from crude and heavy-product
storage.
There is a high level of uncertainty associated with the heavy-product storage tank
emission factors, based on the limited number of data that were available for these tanks.
Nonetheless heavy-product storage tank emissions will only make a very small contribution to
tank farm emissions for most refineries. Only five refineries had heavy-production capacities of
30 percent of their crude capacity or more. All of these refineries have crude capacities of less
than 12,000 bbl/cd. None of the Louisiana refineries for which Title V permit application data
were available are very representative of these small, essentially straight-run refineries.
Consequently, the emission factors selected from the limited data set were chosen using a more
conservative high-end approach than was used for the other tank classes.
The uncertainty in the aromatics emissions is both large and significant. There are 30
refineries reporting aromatics production capacity. Based on the benzene emission factors for
aromatics and light-product storage tanks, aromatics will contribute at least 25 percent of the tank
farms benzene emissions if aromatics production is only 1 percent of the lights production
(true for 29 of the 30 refineries with aromatic production); they will contribute 50 percent or
more of the tank farms emissions if aromatics production is 3.5 percent or more of the lights
production (true for 24 of the 30 refineries with aromatic production). The uncertainty in the
emission factors for aromatic product storage tanks, as encountered in reviewing the limited data
available for these tanks, is that the aromatics products may differ by refinery. The 2000
Worldwide Refining Survey (Stell, 2000a) provides some additional detail about the type of
aromatic process employed, classifying the production capacities for the following aromatic
units: BTX, hydrodealkylation (which produces benzene), cyclohexane, and cumene. This
added level of detail regarding the aromatic units was not used for several reasons. First, no data
were available to characterize cyclohexane and cumene product storage tank emissions.
Moreover, all 30 refineries that had aromatics production capacity specified at least some
production of BTX, and the BTX aromatics production capacity was 80 percent of the total
aromatics production capacity. Thus, for the most significant aromatics production unit (BTX),
which was listed for all refineries with aromatics production capacity, there was little option
available other than to estimate emissions for all three aromatics (i.e., benzene, toluene, and
xylene). Consequently, it is quite likely that for any given refinery, the REM estimates emissions
of an aromatic product that the refinery does not have, and it is equally likely that the REM
underestimates the emissions of the aromatic products that they do have. Although a slightly
more refined analysis could be implemented that uses the additional information available about
Section 4.0 Source Characteristics and Emission Estimates
4-40
the type of aromatic unit, this refined approach would also require additional emissions data to
implement, and it would not alleviate the uncertainty for BTX units. Aromatic product storage
tanks appear to be one area where a focused information collection effort could significantly
improve the emission estimates and associated risk from storage tanks.
Table 4-24 provides a comparison of the overall tank farm emissions for benzene,
toluene, and hexane as calculated by the model versus those reported in the Title V permit
applications for the Louisiana refineries. The emissions are generally accurate within a factor of
2 to a factor of 5; the largest discrepancies stem from differences in aromatics production and the
emissions reported by Shell, where three fixed-roof tanks are responsible for 60 to 70 percent of
the reported benzene and toluene emissions. Most of the reported tank emissions are based on
tank throughput capacity; the reported emissions may overstate actual emissions if the tanks are
not used to capacity (e.g., if a refinery still has fixed-roof tanks, but rarely uses them).
4.7 Product Loading Operations
Product loading emissions occur when vapor is displaced by the liquid product when it is
loaded into tank trucks, rail cars, and marine vessels. The vapor may contain constituents from
the material previously transported and from the product being loaded.

4.7.1 Emission Estimation Methodology
A review of the permit applications for the nine Louisiana refineries for which we had
data showed that eight reported marine vessel loading operations, and all of them captured
emissions and vented them to a flare. Consequently, emissions from marine vessel loading are
included in the emission factor for flares derived from these plants. For the ninth plant, which is
the second smallest of the nine (crude capacity of 78,000 bbl/cd), loading emissions were
reported separately and were not identified as from marine vessel loading.
Emissions from gasoline loading racks are regulated under MACT I for petroleum
refineries (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart CC) and are limited to 10 mg of THC per liter of gasoline.
For this analysis, a conservative assumption was made that all gasoline is loaded through these
loading racks and that emissions occur at the allowable level (10 mg THC/L). The emission
limit converts to 6.4E-4 tpy THC for each bbl/day of gasoline loaded.
Data were available for the estimated vapor-phase HAP composition of gasoline. The
vapor-phase composition in Table 4-25 was multiplied by 6.4E-4 to generate the emission factors
shown in the table in terms of tpy per bbl/day of material loaded. The lights production rate, as
calculated for storage tanks (Section 4.6), was used to estimate the amount of material
produced/loaded at each refinery. An example calculation is given below for benzene from
loading emissions at a refinery producing 100,000 bbl/day of gasoline and other light distallate
products:
Benzene (tpy) = 100,000 bbl/day 6.1E-6 tpy per bbl/day = 0.6 tpy.

For comparison, five of the Louisiana refineries reported benzene emissions from loading
operations that were calculated from site-specific information0.01, 0.05, 0.14, 0.22, and
0.51 tpy. The approach, based on an emission limit of 10 mg/L, appears to be conservative
(high) relative to the estimates in permit applications.
4.7.2 Source Characteristics
Estimates of source characteristics were developed from review of the EPA document
Development of Petroleum Refinery Plot Plans (U.S. EPA, 1978) and Title V permit
applications. The model modules for plot plans described two sizes of truck loading racks, one
that was 7 30.5 m (an area of 2,300 ft
2
) and another that was 13.7 70.1 m (10,000 ft
2
). Only
one of the Louisiana facilities provided information on the truck loading area (5,000 ft
2
). A
midrange value of 5,000 ft
2
was chosen as the default value.
The model modules were assigned heights of 4.6 m (15 ft) and 6.1 m (20 ft). One of the
Louisiana permit applications provided a height of 10 ft and a second was 15 ft. A midrange
value of 15 ft was assigned as the default height.
4.7.3 Uncertainty in Estimates
Accurate estimates of loading emissions require site-specific data, such as the
composition of the product, vapor pressures of the components, quantity loaded, loading
procedure, and the effectiveness of the capture and control systems in place. This information
was not available for this analysis. Consequently, the default approach used to estimate loading
emissions may result in a great deal of uncertainty for a specific site. If we assume the estimates
of loading emissions provided by five Louisiana refineries are based on site-specific information,
comparisons can be made for benzene, which is a carcinogen of primary interest. The site-
specific estimates for benzene ranged from 0.01 to 0.5 tpy for refineries with capacities of about
50,000 to 500,000 bbl/day. The default approach described earlier would estimate a range of
benzene emissions of 0.3 to 3 tpy. This comparison suggests the default approach is conservative
(high) with respect to estimating emissions from loading. However, loading emissions are not a
significant contributor to the total facility emissions.
4.8 Catalytic Reforming Unit (CRU) Catalyst Regeneration Vents
The CRU is a series of catalytic reactors that turn naphtha into high-octane gasoline.
There are no direct atmospheric vents from the naphtha reforming process, but the catalyst
activity slowly diminishes with time and the catalyst must be regenerated. There are three basic
types of CRU catalyst regeneration: continuous, cyclic, and semiregenerative. Continuous CRU
catalyst regenerators operate continuously with a small slip stream of catalyst being recirculated
between the CRU and the regenerator. Cyclic CRU essentially involves an extra CRU reactor.
When regeneration is needed, one reactor is cycled offline and regenerated. The regeneration of
the offline reactor is a batch process. When complete, the reactor is returned to service and the
next reactor is cycled offline and regenerated. The process continues until all reactors are
regenerated. In a cyclic CRU, regeneration may occur for 1,000 to 4,000 hours per year. The
Section 4.0 Source Characteristics and Emission Estimates
4-43
semiregenerative CRU operates without regeneration for 8 to 18 months, then the entire unit is
brought offline, and the entire unit is regenerated. The overall regeneration cycle typically takes
1 to 2 weeks.
During regeneration, there are several potential atmospheric vents. Although the location
of the emission points might vary depending on whether catalyst regeneration is
semiregenerative, cyclic, or continuous, emissions can occur regardless of the regenerator type at
three times during the regeneration process. These three emission points are (1) the initial
depressurization and purge vent; (2) the coke burn pressure control vent; and (3) the final catalyst
purge vent.
The initial depressurization and purge cycle removes the hydrocarbons from the catalyst
prior to CRU catalyst regeneration. The vent gases from this initial purge may have high levels
of organic HAPs, such as BTX and hexane. This vent is typically vented to the refinerys fuel gas
system or directly to a combustion device (e.g., flare or process heater). The coke burn cycle is
typically the largest (in terms of gas volume) emission source of the overall catalyst regeneration
cycle. The primary HAPs contained in the CRU coke burn vent are hydrogen chloride (HCl) and
chlorine (Cl
2
), which are produced when the water formed during combustion leaches chloride
atoms from the CRU catalyst. The final purge and reduction cycle removes oxygen and any
remaining chorination agent from the system and reduces the catalyst prior to returning CRU
catalyst to the reforming process or bringing the unit back online. The vent gases from this final
purge may have low levels of the chlorinating agent (usually an organic HAP, such as
trichloroethene of perchloroethene) and residual HCl or Cl
2
remaining in the system. This vent is
typically vented to the atmosphere or the refinerys fuel gas system, depending on the oxygen
content of the vent gases (safety considerations restrict the venting of oxygen-containing gases to
the fuel gas system).
The 2000 Worldwide Refining Survey data were supplemented with data available from
the MACT II project database (Hansell, 1997). The additional data provided information on the
number of CRUs at each refinery, the capacity for each CRU, and the type of control device used
for the purge and coke-burn emission vents. Control device information was available for
approximately 80 percent of the CRU based on capacity.
4.8.1 Emission Estimation Methodology
Few data are available to characterize the emissions from the CRU catalyst regeneration
vent because venting is infrequent, the vent flow rates are slow and usually variable, and the
vents have small diameters. All of these factors make traditional source testing difficult. Most
of the available data are for HCl and Cl
2
emissions from uncontrolled coke burn (20 data
available for HCl emissions; 10 data available for Cl
2
). A few data were available for limited
VOCs. These data are compiled in the background information document (BID) for the proposed
MACT II rule (U.S. EPA, 1998b). During the MACT II project, the CARB, with funding
assistance from EPA, conducted a source test of a continuous CRU catalyst regenerator coke
burn vent for dioxins/furans, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), and PAHs. The results from this
source test, which were not yet available for inclusion into the MACT II BID, were used to
Section 4.0 Source Characteristics and Emission Estimates
4-44
develop emission factors for these compounds. The emission factors used for the uncontrolled
coke burn emissions are presented in Table 4-26. These emission factors are normalized by the
CRU process throughput and were assumed to apply equally for all types of CRU regenerators.

The most prevalent control device used in association with the coke burn vent is a wet scrubber.
The dioxin/furan emissions source tests, as well as the volatile organics source tests were
performed on a system controlled by a wet scrubber. Because of the limited solubilities of these
chemicals and the scrubbing medium recirculation rate used for wet scrubbers on this vent
stream, the scrubber is assumed to be ineffective at reducing the emissions of these chemicals.
Therefore, the same emission factor was used for these chemicals for both controlled and
uncontrolled CRUs. The scrubbers are expected to reduce the emissions of HCl and Cl
2
. The
scrubbers used for these vents were characterized into two classes: single-stage scrubbers and
multiple-stage scrubbers. Single-stage scrubbers were estimated to reduce HCl and Cl
2
emissions
by 92 percent, and the multiple-stage scrubbers were estimated to reduce HCl and Cl
2
emissions
by 97 percent. For units with no control device information available, the emissions were
estimated assuming 40 percent reduction efficiency (because control devices are used for just
over 40 percent of the CRU capacity for which control device information is available).
Because most emissions from the purge cycles are vented to the RFG system or a flare,
emissions from this source are not covered separately here; these emissions are presumably
included in the RFG combustion sources (process heaters and boilers) or flares emissions
estimates. No data are available to characterize the small portion of venting that occurs directly
to the atmosphere from these purge cycles; no estimates of these emissions were included in the
preliminary emissions estimates.
4.8.2 Source Characteristics
The CRU catalyst regeneration vent is generally a small-diameter (3 to 9 inch) stack or
pipe. Except for the continuous CRU, the CRU catalyst regeneration vent only operates
periodically throughout the year. Three model stacks were developedone model stack for each
type of CRU. The model stacks were developed based on information collected during site visits
perfomed during the MACT II rulemaking, limited source test data for these vents, and limited
data reported by the Louisiana refineries in their Title V applications. The model stack
parameters are presented in Table 4-27.
Continuous CRU regenerators that did not have a wet scrubber to remove HCl generally
had hooks at the end of the CRU so that rain would not fall into the system. Condensed water in
the system would absorb HCl and corrode the pipes. Therefore, as indicated in Table 4-27, when
no scrubber is present, the gas is vented at roughly 800F. When a scrubber is used, the
scrubbing medium (caustic water solution) cools the gas to approximately 150F.
4.8.3 Uncertainty in Estimates
Based on the limited amount of data available to set the emission factors, there are large
uncertainties in the emissions from the CRU vent for most chemicals, except perhaps for HCl
and Cl
2
. One other source test measuring dioxin/furans from a CRU has been performed; the
dioxin TEQ emissions from this source test are roughly two orders of magnitude lower than the
dioxin emission factors employed in the REM. The source test data used for the emission factors

in the REM were for a continuous CRU; this second test was performed on a semiregenerative
CRU. Some differences in emissions are likely based on the CRU regenerator type. Continuous
and cyclic CRUs process naphtha under more severe conditions than semiregenerative CRU
because the frequency of regeneration does not have a significant impact on the process
throughput for these units. Therefore, it is likely that these units may burn off more coke per bbl
of CRU naphtha processed. The two orders-of-magnitude difference likely results from a
combination of the differences in CRU regenerator type and the variability in the process
emissions in general.
The uncontrolled emission factors associated with HCl and Cl
2
emissions were
developed using a midrange estimate. As such, the emissions are generally within a factor of 2
of the highest measured emission factor, but can be an order of magnitude greater than the low-
end value. The arithmetic average emission factor is roughly a factor of 2 less than the midrange
value for HCl. As such, the lumped control factor applied to the emissions for units that did not
report control device information still yields results that are generally characteristic of
uncontrolled emissions. Very few emissions data are available for HCl from controlled CRUs;
the few data available suggest that the control efficiencies for HCl wet scrubbers are generally
higher than the control factors applied in the emission estimates. As such, the coke burn
emission factors used in this analysis are considered to be biased high. This level of
conservatism was considered appropriate because of the general lack of available data and lack of
emission estimates for purge streams that are vented directly to the atmosphere.
There are also uncertainties in the stack parameters. This uncertainty arises from the
limited amount of data available to characterize these sources. Particularly, uncertainties exist
primarily in the stack height, flow rate/stack velocity, and operating hours (for noncontinuous
CRUs). An example of this uncertainty is for a class of CRUs referred to as platformers. In
platformers, the CRU reactors are positioned horizontally. These platformers are generally
continuous CRUs, and the regenerator may be located several hundred feet in the air.
4.9 Catalytic Cracking Unit (CCU) Catalyst Regeneration Vents
The CCU (fluid or other) is used to upgrade the heavy distillates to lighter, more useful
distillates, such as heating oils or gasoline. Nearly all CCU systems operate as fluidized-bed
Section 4.0 Source Characteristics and Emission Estimates
4-47
reactors and use air or oil gas flow to transport the catalyst between the CCU reactor and the
CCU regenerator. These fluid CCU (FCCU) systems represent more than 97 percent of the U.S.
CCU capacity. A few thermal CCU (TCCU) exist, which use larger catalyst particles and
moving bed reactors. Although the attributes of particulate matter emissions from FCCU and
TCCU regenerators can differ widely, the HAP constituents emitted from the regeneration
process are essentially the same.
During the cracking process, coke is deposited on the catalyst, and catalyst activity
decreases. Therefore, the catalyst is recirculated between the reactor and the regenerator to burn
off the coke deposits and reactivate the catalyst. There are two basic types of CCU regenerators:
complete combustion regenerators and partial combustion regenerators. In a complete
combustion regenerator, the regenerator is typically operated at approximately 1,200 to 1,400F
with excess oxygen and low levels (< 500 ppmv) of carbon monoxide (CO) in the exhaust flue
gas. In a partial (or incomplete) combustion regenerator, the regenerator is typically operated at
approximately 1,000 to 1,200F under oxygen-limited conditions and relatively high levels (1 to
3 percent) of CO. Nearly all partial combustion CCU regenerators operate a CO boiler,
incinerator, or other thermal combustion unit to complete the combustion of CO and to destroy
products of incomplete combustion.
There are two general classes of HAP emissions from the CCU catalyst regenerator:
metal HAPs (such as nickel, manganese chromium, and lead) that are associated with catalyst
particles entrained in the exhaust gas; and organic HAPs (such as benzene, formaldehyde,
hydrogen cyanide, phenol, and PAHs) that result from the incomplete combustion of coke or
other impurities in the CCU reactor feed that deposits on the catalyst particles.
The 2000 Worldwide Refining Survey data were supplemented with data available from
the MACT II project database. The additional data provided information on the number of CCUs
at each refinery, the capacity for each CCU, the type of regenerator (complete vs. partial
combustion), and the presence of additional control devices effective for the organic or metal
HAP emission control. Organic HAP control device information was available for
approximately 95 percent of the CCUs based on capacity, and metal HAP control device
information was available for all CCUs.
4.9.1 Emission Estimation Methodology
For organic emissions, emission factors developed during the MACT II rulemaking were
used. These emission factors, which are presented in Table 4-28, were developed based on data
for units controlled for organic HAPs (i.e., either complete combustion or partial combustion
followed by additional combustion). The emission factors for VOCs are generally based on five
to six emission source tests; the emission factors for PAHs and furans are generally based on one
or two emission source tests. Emissions of uncontrolled organic HAPs were estimated assuming
a control efficiency of 98 percent (so that uncontrolled emissions are 50 times higher than
controlled emissions); based on the current MACT II data, only one FCCU is uncontrolled for
organic HAPs.

Emission factors for CCUs controlled for organics in lbs per million barrels of CCU capacity
Estimates of metal HAP emissions were based on the emissions of nickel (Ni) estimated
from a Monte Carlo simulation of CCU emissions developed during the MACT II rulemaking.
Nickel emissions were based on actual emissions data or on a hierarchy of available data for each
CCU. This hierarchy is as follows:
1. Actual Ni emissions test data for that CCU;
2. Actual particulate matter test data for the CCU combined with reported
equilibrium catalyst (E-Cat) Ni concentrations;
3. Actual particulate matter test data for the CCU and a randomized Ni fines
concentration based on the distribution of fines data obtained from catalyst
vendor;
4. Random particulate matter emission rate based on the presence of a particulate
matter control device and particulate matter emission distributions for controlled
Section 4.0 Source Characteristics and Emission Estimates

and uncontrolled units combined with reported E-Cat Ni concentrations for that
CCU; and
5. Random particulate matter emission rate based on the presence of a particulate
matter control device and particulate matter emission distributions for controlled
and uncontrolled units combined with a randomized Ni fines concentration based
on the distribution of fines data obtained from catalyst vendor.
An arithmetic average emission rate for each CCU was calculated from the 1,000
randomized runs performed for the Monte Carlo analysis, and these emission rates were directly
input into the CCU emissions database. There are 127 CCUs in the database; direct Ni emissions
data were available for 22 CCUs. Particulate matter emissions data were available for 51
refineries, and Ni E-Cat concentrations were available for 61 refineries.
Once the Ni emissions were included in the database, emissions from other metal HAPs
were estimated based on the ratio of emission rates measured for these compounds to the
emissions of Ni. Approximately 10 emission source tests measured multiple metal HAPs. The
ratios used to estimate the emissions of the metal HAPs based on Ni emissions are presented in
Table 4-29.

Stack parameters were available for roughly 30 CCUs based a preliminary risk
assessment performed by API. Additional stack parameters are likely available in the particulate
matter emissions source test reports, but these were not reviewed and compiled. Using these
data, along with the process operating parameters collected in the MACT II rulemaking, the
model stack parameters provided in Table 4-30 were developed.

4.9.3 Uncertainty in Estimates
Compared with many other sources, the CCU catalyst regenerator vent is relatively data-
rich, especially with respect to Ni emissions, which are expected to be one of the main risk
drivers from this source. Additionally, the relative ratio of Ni to other metal HAPs is generally
consistent based on analysis of fines collected by particulate matter control devices on the CCU
catalyst regenerator vent. The largest uncertainty lies with the emissions for mercury because
mercury is not expected to be controlled well by the particulate matter control devices used for
this vent (i.e., electrostatic precipitators (ESPs) or venturi scrubbers). Nonetheless, using the
measured/calculated Ni emission rate and the emission ratios presented in Table 4-29, the
nationwide mercury emissions from the CCU catalyst regenerator vent was estimated to be 1.29
tons/year. This emission rate is only 2.3 times lower than the emissions projected using the
single highest emission factor derived from the mercury emissions data. Although the
uncertainties increase when a given facilitys emissions parameters are randomly assigned, the
metal HAP emission estimates are considered to be accurate within a factor of 2 for most CCUs.
The CCU catalyst regenerator vent is the driving emission source for metal HAPs from
the refinery. Therefore, the relatively high level of data and associated confidence in the metal
Section 4.0 Source Characteristics and Emission Estimates
4-52
HAP emissions for the CCU catalyst regenerator vent leads to a relatively high level of
confidence for the refinery-wide metal HAP emissions.
The organic emission factors for volatiles are based on midrange estimates, so the high-
end emissions are generally no more than a factor of 2 higher than those estimated. The low-end
emissions may be an order-of-magnitude less than those estimated using the emission factors
presented in Table 4-28. The highest uncertainty lies with emissions that are uncontrolled for
HAPs. Fortunately, only one facility is currently projected to be uncontrolled for organic HAPs.
Uncontrolled formaldehyde emissions are most suspect. Formaldehyde is generally formed as a
combustion product with some excess oxygen, and it is unlikely that uncontrolled formaldehyde
emissions are 50 times those of controlled units. Additionally, because the industry trend has
been toward complete combustion CCUs, the one CCU uncontrolled for organics should be
contacted to verify that it has not modified its CCU operation (i.e., it still uses a partial
combustion unit with no postcombustion device). The CCU regenerator vent is a relatively
minor contributor to the overall benzene emission, but it is a major contributor to formaldehyde,
cyanide, and hydrogen cyanide (HCN) emissions.
Based on the lack of data for the PAH and furan emissions, the emission estimates for
these compounds have high uncertainties, likely an order of magnitude either high or low. The
CARB, with the support of EPA, did conduct an emissions source test at a complete combustion
FCCU (with no postcombustion device). The only dioxin isomer detected in all runs was OCDD
(octachloro-dibenzo-p-dioxin); OCDF (octachloro-dibenzo-p-furan) and hetpa-CDD
(hetpachloro-dibenzo-p-dioxin) were detected in one run; all dioxin/furan quantities that were
detected were detected at levels below the method quantitation limit for the analysis. All PCBs
isomers were below detection limits; data for PAHs have not yet been reported. This additional
source test was not included in the development of the MACT II emission factors, but it confirms
low emissions of these compounds from the CCU catalyst regenerator vent.
4.10 Sulfur Recovery Unit (SRU) / Sulfur Plant Vents
All crude oils contain some sulfur compound impurities. Sulfur compounds are
converted to hydrogen sulfide (H
2
S) in the cracking and hydrotreating processes of the refinery.
The H
2
S or acid gas is removed from the process vapors using amine scrubbers. The amine
scrubbing solution is subsequently heated to release the H
2
S, and the acid gas is treated in the
sulfur recovery plant to yield high-purity sulfur that is then sold as product. The sulfur recovery
plant consists of one or more SRUs operated in parallel and may also contain one or more
catalytic tail gas treatment units and/or a thermal oxidizer.
The primary HAP components of the final sulfur plant vent are carbonyl sulfide (COS)
and carbon disulfide (CS
2
). These HAP components are by-products of the SRU and tail gas
treatment unit (TGTU) reactions; COS may also be a product of incomplete combustion from a
thermal oxidizer.
The 2000 Worldwide Refining Survey data were supplemented with data available from
the MACT II project database. The additional data provided information on the number of SRUs
Section 4.0 Source Characteristics and Emission Estimates
4-53
at each refinery, the capacity for each SRU, the type of SRU (most are Claus units), and the
presence and type of TGTU and/or thermal oxidizer. Process-specific information was available
for approximately 90 percent of the SRUs based on sulfur production capacity.
4.10.1 Emission Estimation Methodology
The MACT II BID (U.S. EPA, 1998b) presents a range of total sulfur HAP compound
emission factors for SRU controlled by an incinerator. Based on the data presented and
additional concentration data submitted by National Petrochemical and Refiners Association
(NPRA), it was assumed that 75 percent of the sulfur HAPs emitted in COS and 25 percent in
CS
2
. Emissions of uncontrolled sulfur HAPs were estimated assuming a control efficiency of
98 percent (so that uncontrolled emissions are 50 times higher than controlled emissions). The
emission factors used in the analysis are presented in Table 4-31. The controlled emission
factors are based on summary data reported for five SRUs.

Values estimated at 50 times the controlled SRU emission factor
The controlled emission factor was applied for all units that operated a TGTU, an
incinerator, or both. For units for which control device information was unavailable, 50 percent
of the uncontrolled emission factor was used. This is likely an overestimate of the emissions
because every SRU for which information was available operated either a TGTU or an
incinerator.
4.10.2 Source Characteristics
The few stack parameters that were available for the SRU vent all employed a thermal
oxidizer. From these data, the model stack parameters presented in Table 4-32 were developed.
These model stack parameters are suitable for units with an incinerator (the most prevalent
control device), but the stack temperatures may be high for certain types of TGTUs.

4.10.3 Uncertainty in Estimates
The HAP emission factors for SRU vents are based on limited data. However, the
emission data that were available were rather consistent so that the controlled emission factors
are likely accurate to within a factor of 2. The uncontrolled emission factors are more highly
speculative. These emission factors were divided by 2 and applied to units that did not report
TGTU or incinerator information. Although control device configuration information was
available for more than 90 percent of the sulfur production capacity, the high emission factors
attributed to those units without information resulted in two-thirds of the SRU HAP emissions
originating from those units. Based on the prevalence of controls at units that have control
configuration information, the application of half the uncontrolled emission factor for SRUs with
missing data is considered to be a highly conservative assumption.
4.11 Miscellaneous Process Vents
Miscellaneous process vents include those associated with distillation units, flash or
knockout drums, reactors, caustic wash accumulators, and overheads from scrubbers, strippers,
and wash towers. Process vents associated with catalyst regeneration for catalytic reforming and
catalytic cracking and the sulfur recovery vent were addressed separately, as previously
described. There were few data available to characterize these miscellaneous process vent
emissions, and the preliminary emissions estimates provided for the risk assessment runs did not
include estimates for these emission sources. Based on information from Petroleum Refinery
MACT I, most of these process vents are controlled. A methodology is presented to estimate
emissions from these vent sources based on current information.
4.11.1 Emission Estimation Methodology
Accurate estimates of emissions from process vents are difficult to obtain because of the
lack of HAP data and site-specific information on whether they are controlled. A review of the
permit applications for the nine Louisiana refineries indicated they did not report any
miscellaneous process vents with significant HAP emissions. Several plants reported process
Section 4.0 Source Characteristics and Emission Estimates
4-55
vents that were vented to some type of combustion device. For example, the noncondensibles or
tail gas from the vacuum and crude distillation units were sent to the RFG system at one plant,
and another plant burned them in a process heater. Other process vents were also reported to be
sent to the RFG system or to a flare. Although process vents at these plants appear to be
controlled, other plants for which we have little information may vent certain units to the
atmosphere. The effort is also complicated by the lack of information on how plants
implemented the requirements for Petroleum Refinery MACT I. The rule requires that process
vents at existing sources be controlled if they contain 20 ppmv or more VOCs and emit
33 kg/day or more VOCs.
The approach used to estimate emissions relies on the nationwide estimates of the
impacts of MACT I . The estimates before and after control (i.e., before and after MACT I) are
given in Table 4-33. These emissions were distributed among the 155 refineries in the database
using the crude oil capacity. The estimates for after control were divided by the nationwide
crude oil capacity (17 million bbl/day) to generate the emission factors in the table. An example
calculation is given below for benzene emissions from process vents at a refinery with
100,000 bbl/day crude oil capacity:
Benzene (tpy) = 100,000 bbl/day 1.8E-5 tpy/bbl/day = 1.8 tpy.

4.11.2 Source Characteristics
As with HAP emissions data, there is little information with which to characterize
process vents. The characteristics are expected to be quite variable, depending on the specific
plant and associated processes. The only process vent found in the 1996 NTI was for the
condenser on vacuum distillation units. The vent height ranged from 10 ft to 200 ft, and the
diameter ranged from 1.5 ft to 11 ft. The velocity ranged from 13 ft/s to 56 ft/s. Midrange
values of 105 ft in height, 6 ft in diameter, and 35 ft/s are recommended.
4.11.3 Uncertainty in Estimates
As discussed earlier, the HAP emission estimates for process vents are uncertain because
of the lack of site-specific information, including which vents at which plants are uncontrolled.
The emission estimates for MACT I suggest that the nationwide emissions of HAP from process
vents are not as significant as other emission points at refineries. However, process vent
emissions may make a significant contribution to emissions at any refineries where these vents
are not controlled. Site-specific information on uncontrolled process vents could provide a
significant improvement in the emission estimates and reduce uncertainty.
Section 5.0 Additional Data Collection
5-1
5.0 Additional Data Collection
The database documented in this report is expected to be an improvement over other
available databases for petroleum refineries because it is more complete with respect to the
populations of refineries, emission points, and HAPs. However, during the development of this
database, which took place over a relatively short time frame, some weaknesses were identified
that may merit the collection of additional information to provide more accurate and defensible
estimates. In addition, areas where additional information would be of little value were also
identified to assist in focusing any additional data collection effort.
5.1 Recommendations for Additional Data Collection
The recommendations focus on the emission points that are the biggest contributors to
HAP emissions and also those for which data should be available at individual refineries to
improve the estimates. Information that would improve the estimates of fugitive equipment
leaks includes Method 21 inspection results (site-specific data on leak frequency and screening
levels when leaks are detected), HAP composition of process streams, and counts of individual
components (such as pumps, valves, and flanges) by process. These data are especially needed
for aromatic units because no process component counts or compositional data are currently
available for aromatics units. For wastewater treatment processes, information on the quantity
of HAPs processed in open wastewater collection and treatment systems and emissions from any
control devices (such as thermal oxidizers or strippers) would be helpful. Additionally,
wastewater generation rates and composition data for aromatics units are needed. For process
and storage tanks, site-specific emission estimates generated by the companies using EPAs
AP-42 procedures (TANKS software) would improve the estimates. Such site-specific estimates
are likely to have been generated already for state or Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) emission
inventories, and the companies are in the best position to develop accurate estimates based on
their knowledge of throughput and composition. Specific product production rates for aromatic
compounds could greatly improve product storage tank emission estimates. In general, aromatic
units could be targeted for the collection of more-detailed, process-specific data.
Site-specific data for cooling towers could significantly improve emission estimates,
especially for plants that monitor the cooling water. This information would include the
volumetric flow rate for the water and the composition of the process streams where it is used.
Any measurement data on the HAP content or THC before the water is exposed to the
atmosphere would also be helpful. Finally, information on uncontrolled process vents is
needed. Plants could identify the processes and vents, describe their use (e.g., whether
continuous or periodic or infrequent venting), and provide emissions data or estimates for THC
or specific HAPs. With respect to characteristics of emission points, additional information for
cooling towers and uncontrolled process vents is needed to supplement the sparse available data.
Section 5.0 Additional Data Collection
5-2
This information would include height, area, linear flow rate, volumetric flow rate, and
temperature.
5.2 Recommendations for Not Collecting Additional Data
There are likely to be no additional useful emissions data for process heaters, boilers,
and flares. A detailed study has already been performed for process heaters and boilers, and
flares are not amenable to testing. In addition, the characteristics of these emission points are
reasonably well characterized from available data.
The available data for the MACT II emission points also appear adequate and already
include many site-specific features. Additional HAP emissions data are not likely to be obtained
because the nine Louisiana refineries generally did not include them in their permit applications,
and other databases, such as the TRI, generally do not include emissions estimates for the full
range of HAPs emitted from these sources. These vents include the catalytic regeneration
vents associated with catalytic cracking and catalytic reforming, and the sulfur recovery vent.
The review of available data indicates that emissions from loading product into marine
vessels, tank trucks, and rail cars are generally controlled. Because these emissions appear to
make only a small contribution to total emissions, additional information would probably be of
little value. In addition, process vents that are controlled by venting to a combustion device do
not make a significant contribution to total emissions, and to some extent, their contribution is
accounted for in the emission factors for process heaters, boilers, and flares.

Appendix A. Data Extracted from Louisiana Permit Applications
A.1 Overview
Personnel from EC/R visited the Office of Air Quality at the Louisiana Department of
Environmental Quality and extracted information from their files. One of the most useful items
was an emission inventory questionnaire that petroleum refineries submitted for each emission
point in their application for a Part 70 operating permit. The questionnaire included a description
of the emission point, its UTM coordinates, and characteristics (stack height and diameter, exit
temperature, flow rate, velocity, operating time, and operating rate). For combustion sources, the
type of fuel and heat input were specified, and for tanks, the volume was reported. The
questionnaire also included a list of the pollutants emitted, the average and maximum rates
(lb/hr), and annual average rate (tpy). Most of these applications were submitted in the 1996 to
2000 time frame. Figure A-1 shows an example of a questionnaire response.
The applications were obtained for nine refineries that spanned a wide range of crude oil
capacity (from 50,000 to 500,000 bbl/day). The refineries have a representative mix of processes
typical of refineries nationwide. This information was used to characterize the emissions and
emission points at these refineries in great detail and were also used to extrapolate to other
refineries for which information was not available. The most useful information was for
emissions from fugitive equipment leaks, wastewater treatment, storage and process tanks,
product loading, and flares.
A.2 Details
The emission estimates provided by the companies were generally developed from EPA
estimating procedures using site-specific data. However, not all emission points or HAP were
included. For example, the company estimates were supplemented by the estimating procedures
described in Section 4 to fill in data gaps for HAP from heaters and boilers, catalyst regeneration
vents, and sulfur recovery. The results for benzene emissions (a HAP found at all refineries that
is a carcinogen of primary interest) are shown in Figure A-2 and tabulated in Table A-1 by
emission point. The diamond data points represent the companys estimates and show internal
consistency in that (as would be expected) benzene emissions increase with refinery capacity.
The circles are the estimates derived for the risk assessment and include emission points that
were not in the questionnaire responses. The results for benzene emissions for Marathon Oil
appear to somewhat out of line with the others in terms of capacity.
Table A-2 gives plant totals for emissions of the most commonly reported HAPs. One of
the most detailed responses was that for BP Oil Belle Chasse (now Tosco Refining).
Tables A-3 through A-6 provide a summary of emissions by type of emission point for different
processes and provides insight into the major contributors to HAP emissions. This level of detail
was not available for all of the plants. Table A-7 is a listing of each of the emission points
reported by the nine refineries and the characteristics. Table A-7 gives the HAP emissions
estimates for each emission point. (The key to the facility ID is given in Table A-1.)
