DESCRIBE IN DETAILTHE EMISSION SOURCE PROCESS (ATTACH FLOW DIAGRAM):
Tetralluoroethylene (TFE) in carbon dioxide is delivered to the site in tanktrucks and is stored in
a tank in the area. The carbon dioxide is reacted with sodium hydroxide to form sodium
carbonate which liberates the TFE as a raw material for the various fluorocarbon processes. The
sodium carbonate leaves the process as an aqueous wastewater. Air emissions from the process
are TFE and nitrogen.' -Process -Equipment includes a reactor_pllu"ssoctff hud7purffkiffan

DESCRIBE IN DETAIL THE PROCESS (ATTACH FLOW DIAGRAM):
A mixture of tetrafluoroethylene (TFE) and carbon dioxide is reacted with sodium hydroxide to form
sodium carbonate which liberates the TFE as a raw material. The sodium carbonate leaves the
process as an aqueous wastewater. Air emissions from the process are TFE and nitrogen. Process
equipment includes a reactor plus associated purification equipment. This new process (NS-M) will
replace the existing TFE/HCl separation process (NS-L) already in the site's current Title V Permit.
