Emission Source Description:
Nafion® Waste DMSO Storage Tank
Process Description:
This tank is used as an intermediate storage space for disposal of DMSO (dimethyl
sulfoxide) offsite. DMSO is used in the Nafion® Products Hydrolysis process and is disposed of
onsite via the site's wastewater treatment plant ("WWTP"). When the material in Hydrolysis
can no longer be used for the process, the chemical is transferred to the Waste DMSO Storage
Tank. From this tank, the DMSO solution is pumped to the WWTP at a rate of 5 gallons per
minute. The tank is open to the atmosphere with a gooseneck pipe coming off the top that ends
12" above the diked area.
Basis and Assumptions:
- Direct vent to atmosphere
Tank volume = 6000 gallons or 802 ft3
- DMSO vapor pressure = 0.46 mm Hg @ 20°C
- Molar volume of an Ideal Gas @ 0°C and 1 atm = 359 ft3/(lb-mole)
- Molecular Weight of DMSO = 78 (78 lb DMSO / lb -mole DMSO)
- Assume one complete tank volume turnover per day for point source emissions.
- Assume DuPont Good Emission Factor on Equipment Leaks for fugitive emissions
(See Appendix A).
- Flange emissions were used for all equipment except valves and pumps.

Vapor pressure of DMSO = 0.46 mm Hg at 20°C
Mole fraction DMSO in vapor (using Dalton's law):
CAS No. 67-68-5
Mole fraction DMSO = Vapor pressure DMSO = 0.46 mm Hg = 0.000605 mole DMSO
Total pressure in tank 760 mm Hg mole gas in tank
Molar volume at 0°C and 1 atm = 359 ft3 =>
Pounds of DMSO per tank volume:
Molar volume at 20°C and 1 atm = 385 ft3
802 ft3 * lb -mole * 0.000605 mole DMSO * 78 lb DMSO = 0.098 lb DMSO
tank volume 385 ft3 lb -mole gas in tank mole DMSO tank volume
Total DMSO emissions per year from tank volume, assuming one tank volume per day:
0.098 lb DMSO * 1 tank volume * 365 days * 1 ton = 0.018 ton DMSO / yr

APPENDIX A: FUGITIVE EMISSION LEAK RATES FOR PROCESS EQUIPMENT
Fugitive emission studies have been done on a number of DuPont facilities and the
measurements were considerable lower than emission factors recommended by the EPA for
SOCMI chemical processes. These screening and bagging data have been used to establish
"typical" emission factors from DuPont facilities. The data separated into three categories of
emission levels for "as found" emissions form plants who were not involved in LDAR programs.
As a result of this effort, three sets of DuPont factors were developed: "superior", "excellent",
and "good." The superior factors are typical of processes that contain extremely hazardous
materials, i.e. phosgene (COC12), chlorine (C12), and hydrogen fluoride (HF). A set of example
questions to help guide DuPont sites as to when to use the different categories was also
developed and is discussed in the next section. The three categories represent the range found at
DuPont facilities, but still are much lower than EPA SOCMI factors. All three sets of factors are
listed below.

Heavy liquid means a liquid with a true vapor pressure of less than 0.3 kPa (0.04 psia) at a
temperature of 294.3 °K (70 °F); or which has 0.1 Reid Vapor Pressure; or which when distilled
requires a temperature of 421.95 °K (300 °F); or greater to recover 10 percent of the liquid as
determined by ASTM method D86-82.
0 Light liquid means a liquid that is not a heavy liquid.

0 Which factors should I use?
•
The factors suggested above represent DuPont "experience" and more accurately reflect
OVERALL fugitive emissions from DuPont facilities, i.e. the DuPont culture. The comparisons
were made with a limited database and the factors suggested here reflect a comparison of overall
or aggregate emission levels to those predicted by EPA SOCMI factors. It should be pointed out
that individual DuPont factors did vary from specific source service factors suggested by EPA,
i.e. light or heavy liquid service. For the "Superior" category, the individual factors are
extremely small numbers, and therefore, it is suggested to calculate the emission estimate with
EPA SOCMI factors, and then divide the total by the 10,000 factor. Since there is considerable
variability in ANY individual component leak rate due to type, age, size, service, etc., it is also
suggested to check overall predicted emissions from the "Excellent" and "Good" categories in
the same way, i.e. use EPA factors and then divide by 20 or 3, respectively.
In order to determine which factors to use, a series of questions were developed to index a
facility into one of the three categories. These are general guidance, and not definitive in the
sense of black or white. Additionally, use of the DuPont Factors may be challenged by State
Environmental Agencies since they do vary from EPA prescribed factors. However, past
validation efforts gave overall estimates within 10-20% of those based on DuPont factors. For
additional information and assistance, please call Tom Kittleman, Ducom 366-4718.
Superior factors should only be sued by facilities that use extremely hazardous materials, i.e.
phosgene, chlorine or HF. The maintenance culture of these operations is to detect and repair
leaks immediately due to the inherent toxicity of the chemicals. Most other processes/facilities
will be either excellent or good.
The "Excellent" factors listed above should be used only after HONESTLY answering the list of
questions attached, and at least 4 or 5 answers are "Yes." otherwise use "Good".
QUESTIONS FOR DETERMINING UNIT -SPECIFIC FACTOR CATEGORY
1. Are techniques available and used to routinely locate specific leaks? Examples include SOZ
bombs, ammonia solution, special detectors (such as those for HCN or phosgene), chemical
badges, and sniff testers.
2. Do you perform leak checks in this process area at least once per day?
3. Are specific procedures used on each start-up to minimized fugitive emissions? Examples
include hydrostatic tests, special leak tests, etc.
4. Do you have a documented check list startup procedure that helps locate routine leaks?
5. Do you have a formal procedure that requires leaks be repaired in a timely manner, including
use of overtime if necessary?

Emission Source Description: Site -Wide Laboratories
Process and Emission Description:
The DuPont Company -Fayetteville Works has several laboratories located throughout the
site. The use of normal laboratory chemicals result in assumed emissions of these
compounds.
Basis and Assumptions:
The amount of the laboratory chemicals used in the various laboratories is not easily
quantified due to the current procurement procedures. In previous years these quantities
could and were determined. During those years, it was assumed that 100% of the laboratory
chemicals purchased were emitted as air emissions.
To be conservative, it will be assumed that the annual emission of laboratory chemicals is the
summation of the emissions that occurred in the four (4) year period from 2003 to 2006.

Emission Source Description: Outdoor Abrasive Blasting Operation
Process and Emission Description:
The DuPont Company - Fayetteville Works has a free-standing structure that is used to
abrasive blast large metal parts prior to painting.
Basis and Assumptions:
The abrasive blasting activity in this structure is infrequent. Purchasing records of the
abrasive media used in this operation is the basis of the abrasive media consumption.
Per the AP-42 Section 13.2.6 particulate emission factors for abrasive blasting of mild steel
panels with a five mile per hour wind speed, total particulate matter emissions would be 27
pounds per 1,000 pounds of abrasive. The choice of this low wind speed is appropriate since
the blasting operation is conducted inside an enclosure.
