This property page is part of the Report Options Dialog which appears when you select Reports } Options from the main menu of the application.

From this dialog you can set the options that affect the appearance of the EPA-MACT Emissions report.

General Options

You can either use the Default options or Custom options. To customize the general options click on the “Customize…” button to bring up the Report Options Dialog: General (Default) Tab interface. The changes done in general options through this interface will be applied only on the Emission report.

 

 

Content

A list of options and sections that can be included in this report is given. By checking the corresponding checkboxes it is possible to include in the report the controlled emission amounts, information on the equipment content upon which the calculations were based and finally, information about the emitted HAPs and VOCs. Furthermore, the user is able to specify the Breakdown format of the calculated emissions (i.e, By Operation then by Component and/or By component then by Operation). Notice that a separate section will be created for every Breakdown selection in the report.

Physical Units

The user has the option yo modify the mass units for the emitted amounts and the equipment contents as well as the temperature and pressure units.

Depressurization Emissions

By checking the appropriate option the user is able to specify the depressurization emissions model that will be used for the calculation.

Heat Emissions

By checking the appropriate option the user is able to specify the heat emissions model that will be used for the calculation.

See also EPA-MACT Emissions Report (EPA) for more details on each section of this report.

Emissions Control Information

From this table you can provide information regarding the control devices of procedures and specifically, the name and operating temperature. This information is used for the calculation of the controlled emissions. Notice that only one control device is possible to be specified for every procedure.

Subtract EPA-MACT Emissions from Contents

If this options is checked, the emitted amounts of components will be subtracted from the equipment contents. This practice will result in calculating slightly reduced emitted amounts compared to the standard where emitted amounts are not subtracted from the vessel contents.

Show Operations with no Emissions

If this option is checked, operations which generate no emissions according to the EPA-MACT guidelines will also be included in the report.
