43.1. Daily-weighted average. -- The daily-weighted average VOC content, in units of mass of VOC per unit volume of coating, minus water and exempt compounds, as applied, of the coatings used on a day on a coating line or operation shall be calculated using the following equation:
where:
VOCw =The daily-weighted average VOC content of the coatings, as applied, used on a coating line or operation in units of kilograms of VOC per liter of coating (kg VOC/L) (pounds of VOC per gallon of coating [lb VOC/gal]), minus water and exempt compounds;
n = The number of different coatings, as applied, each day on a coating line or operation;
Vi = The volume of each coating, as applied, each day on a coating line or operation in units of L (gal), minus water and exempt compounds; and
Ci = The VOC content of each coating, as applied, each day on a coating line or operation in units of kg VOC/L of coating (lb VOC/gal), minus water and exempt compounds; and
VT = The total volume of all coating, as applied, each day on a coating line or operation in units of L (gal), minus water and exempt compounds.
43.2. Overall emission reduction efficiency for control systems. -- The overall emission reduction efficiency needed to demonstrate compliance is determined each day as follows:
a. Obtain the emission limitation from the applicable section of this regulation.
b. Calculate the emission limitation on a solids basis according to the following equation:
where:
S = The VOC emission limitation in terms of kg VOC/L of coating solids (lb VOC/gal);
C = The VOC emission limitation in terms of kg VOC/L of coating (lb/gal), minus water and exempt compounds; and
d = The density of VOC for converting emission limitation to a solids basis. The density equals 0.882 kg/L (7.36 lb/gal).
c. Calculate the required overall emission reduction efficiency of the control system for the day according to the following equation:
where:
E = The required overall emission reduction efficiency of the control system for the day;
VOCa = (1) The maximum VOC content of the coatings, as applied, used each day on the subject coating line or operation, in units of kg VOC/L of coating solids (lb/gal), as determined by the applicable test methods and procedures specified in section 42.; or (2) The daily-weighted average VOC content, as applied, of the coatings used each day on the subject coating line or operation, in units of kg VOC/L of coating solids (lb/gal), as determined by the applicable test methods and procedures specified in section 42. and the procedure in section 43.2.d.; and
S = VOC emission limitation in terms of kg VOC/L of coating solids (lb VOC/gal).
d. The daily-weighted average VOC content, as applied, of the coatings used on a coating line or operation in units of mass of VOC per unit volume of coating solids shall be calculated by the following equation:
where:
VOCws = The daily-weighted average VOC content, as applied, of the coatings used on a coating line or operation in units of mass of VOC per unit volume of coating solids;
n = The number of different coatings, as applied, used in a day on a coating line or operation;
Vi = The volume of each coating (i), as applied, used in a day on a coating line or operation in units of liters (L) (gallons [gal]);
Wvoci = The weight fraction of VOC in each coating (i), as applied, used in a day on a coating line or operation in units of kg VOC/kg coating (lb/lb);
Di = The density of each coating (i), as applied, used in a day on a coating line or operation in units of kg coating/L of coating (lb/gal);
Vsi = The volume fraction solids content of each coating (i), as applied, used on a day on a coating line or operation in units of L solids/L coating (gal/gal);
