What Must Be Monitored for Each Process Line?
If NOT using a CEMS, measure these parameters on a monthly basis
(unless otherwise noted)...
Calcined petroleum coke consumption
(tons)
Annual and monthly production of
titanium dioxide (tons)
Carbon content factor for petroleum
coke consumed from the supplier or as
measured (percent by weight)
Annual consumption of calcined
petroleum coke (tons)
Annual operating hours for each titanium
dioxide process line (hours)
Annual production of carbon-
containing waste (tons), if applicable
If facility generates carbon containing wastes:
Monthly production of carbon
containing waste (tons)
Annual sample of carbon content for
carbon containing waste (percent by
weight)
If using a CEMS:
In addition to the monitoring requirements under 40 CFR subpart C for the
Tier 4 Calculation Methodology, measure these parameters...
Annual consumption of calcined
petroleum coke (tons)
Annual production of carbon-containing
waste (tons), if applicable
Annual production of titanium dioxide
(tons)
