Ammonia Manufacturing &EPA Monitoring Checklist United States Environmental Protection Agency Final Rule: Mandatory Reporting of Greenhouse Gases What Must Be Monitored? If NOT using a CEMS, measure these parameters on a monthly basis... ~ Volume of gaseous feedstock (standard ~ Carbon content of solid feedstock cubic feet [scf]) (with flow meter) (kg C per kg of feedstock) ~ Carbon content of gaseous feedstock ~ Annual urea production, if applicable (kilogram [kg] C per kg of feedstock) (metric tons) ~ Molecular weight of the gaseous ~ CO2 from the steam reforming of a feedstock (kg/kg-mole) hydrocarbon or the gasification of solid and liquid raw material at the ammonia manufacturing process unit used to produce urea ~ Volume of liquid feedstock (gallons) ~ Carbon content of liquid feedstock (with flow meter) (kg C per gallon of feedstock) ~ Mass of solid feedstock (kg) (from company records and aggregated on monthly basis) 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 quantity of each type of feedstock consumed for ammonia manufacturing (scf of gaseous feedstock, gallons of liquid feedstock, and kg of solid feedstock) See also the information sheet for Ammonia Manufacturing at www.epa.gov/ghgreporting/documents/pdf/infosheets/ammoniamanufacturing.pdf.
