Q for the Influent sample = The well flow rate + the air flow. <br /> . Q for the Effluent - The well flow + the air flow + the fuel flow <br /> rate. <br /> The fuel flow rate rust be corrected to account for the change in <br /> volume from combustion. <br /> Since the gas volume depends on the number of molecules present <br /> the reaction of propane with oxygen produces an increase in <br /> volume. 1C3H8 + 502 -> 3CO2 + 4H2O , which gives an increase from <br /> 6 to 7 molecules per molecule of propane. This effectively means <br /> that after comb€stiLcn the volume of flow resulting from the <br /> Proper is double the ,propane flow rate. The reaction of methane <br /> (Natural Gas) and oxygen does not produce a net change in volume, <br /> CH4 + 2 02 -> CO2 + 2 g20; therefore a correction for combustion <br /> does not need to be made when methane is burned. <br /> See table 1 for the results of REMOX operation and table 2 for <br /> results influent/effluent monitoring of the system. <br /> CONCLUSIONS <br /> The VOC emissions during current REMOX operations for the period <br /> 10/10/91 to 12/23/91, have not exceeded the 52 lb/day limit. <br /> Natural Gas usage, a total of 153680 cf Methane has be used during <br /> 860.26 hours of operation this is a average rate of 178 cfh, 3cfm, <br /> or 4,E87 of per operational day, which is below the permit limit <br /> of 17 D <br /> act E.
