Locating and Estimating Air Emissions from Sources of 1,3-Butadiene EPA 454/R-96-008 November 1996 LOCATING AND ESTIMATING AIR EMISSIONS FROM SOURCES OF 1,3-BUTADIENE Prepared for: Mr. Dennis Beauregard Work Assignment Manager Emission Factor and Inventory Group U. S. Environmental Protection Agency Research Triangle Park, North Carolina 27711 Prepared by: Eastern Research Group Post Office Box 2010 Morrisville, North Carolina 27560-2010 November 1996 This report has been reviewed by the Office of Air Quality Planning and Standards, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, and has been approved for publication.

EPA-454/R-96-008 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments contain a list of 189 hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) which the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency must study, identify sources of, and determine if regulations are warranted. One of these HAPs, 1,3-butadiene (butadiene), is the subject of this document. This document describes the properties of butadiene as an air pollutant, defines its production and use patterns, identifies source categories of air emissions, and provides butadiene emissions data in terms of emission factors and national inventory estimates. The document is a part of an ongoing EPA series designed to assist the general public at large, but primarily State/local air agencies, in identifying sources of HAPs and determining emissions estimates. Butadiene is primarily used in the manufacture of synthetic elastomers (rubbers, latexes) and for producing raw materials for nylon. Butadiene is emitted into the atmosphere from its production, its use as a chemical feedstock in the production of other chemicals, the use of these other chemicals, mobile sources, and from a wide variety of miscellaneous processes involving fossil fuel and biomass combustion, petroleum refining, secondary lead smelting, and wastewater treatment. Including only sources for which estimates are available or can be calculated, total nationwide emissions are estimated at 121,002 tons per year (109,775 Mg/yr). The primary sources of butadiene emissions on a national level are on-road mobile (47%) and off-road mobile (35%). Table ES-1 illustrates the national emissions estimates developed for the more predominant butadiene categories. The main butadiene air emissions sources are on-road mobile, off-road mobile, biomass burning, butadiene users, and petroleum refining. Some of these estimates for the non-fuel combustion sources were obtained from the reports required under the Superfund Amendment and Reauthorization Act (SARA), Title III, Section 313. Other estimates are a function of national activity data combined with the best available emission factors. iii Table ES-1.

Newkome ______________________________ Committee Member Dr. Wayne L. Mattice ______________________________ Committee Member Dr. Peter L. Rinaldi i i ABSTRACT 2,3,4,5,6-Pentafluorostyrene (PFS) was polymerized in the presence of a solution of polybutadiene (PB) in tetrahydrofuran using benzoyl peroxide as the radical initiator at 50, 60, 80 ºC. The products were graft copolymers of poly(2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorostyrene) (PPFS) into PB. The copolymerizations follow typical free radical polymerization kinetics and behavior, with the rate of propagation proportional to the monomer concentration and the square root of the initiator concentration. Gel permeation chromatography (GPC) equipped with two detectors (UV and refractive index) has allowed us to determine conversion of the monomer, graft efficiency, graft ratio and graft frequency of the grafted products obtained at different temperatures and initiator concentrations, without the need of purification and/or isolation of the final graft copolymer. Conversion of the monomer and graft ratio increase and grafting frequency decreases with increasing temperature and initiator concentration.

  • Numerical Simulation of a Two-Phase Flow for the Acrylonitrile Electrolytic Adiponitrile Process in a Vertical/Horizontal Electrolysis Cell
    energies Article Numerical Simulation of a Two-Phase Flow for the Acrylonitrile Electrolytic Adiponitrile Process in a Vertical/Horizontal Electrolysis Cell Jiin-Yuh Jang * and Yu-Feng Gan Department of Mechanical Engineering, National Cheng-Kung University, Tainan 70101, Taiwan; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +886-6-2088573 Received: 7 September 2018; Accepted: 6 October 2018; Published: 12 October 2018 Abstract: This paper investigated the effect of oxygen holdup on the current density distribution over the electrode of a vertical/horizontal electrolysis cell with a two-dimensional Eulerian–Eulerian two-phase flow model in the acrylonitrile (AN) electrolytic adiponitrile (ADN) process. The physical models consisted of a vertical/horizontal electrolysis cell 10 mm wide and 600 mm long. The electrical potential difference between the anode and cathode was fixed at 5 V, which corresponded to a uniform current density j = 0.4 A/cm2 without any bubbles released from the electrodes. The effects of different inlet electrolyte velocities (vin = 0.4, 0.6, 1.0 and 1.5 m/s) on the void fraction and the current density distributions were discussed in detail. It is shown that, for a given applied voltage, as the electrolyte velocity is increased, the gas diffusion layer thickness decreased and this resulted in the decrease of the gas void fraction and increase of the corresponding current density; for a given velocity, the current density for a vertical cell was higher than that for a horizontal cell. Furthermore, assuming the release of uniform mass flux for the oxygen results in overestimation of the total gas accumulation mass flow rate by 2.8% and 5.8% and it will also result in underestimation of the current density by 0.3% and 2.4% for a vertical cell and a horizontal cell, respectively.

  • Analysis of Trace Hydrocarbon Impurities in 1,3-Butadiene Using Optimized Rt®-Alumina BOND/MAPD PLOT Columns by Rick Morehead, Jan Pijpelink, Jaap De Zeeuw, Tom Vezza
    Petroleum & Petrochemical Applications Analysis of Trace Hydrocarbon Impurities in 1,3-Butadiene Using Optimized Rt®-Alumina BOND/MAPD PLOT Columns By Rick Morehead, Jan Pijpelink, Jaap de Zeeuw, Tom Vezza Abstract Identifying and quantifying trace impurities in 1,3-butadiene is critical in producing high quality synthetic rubber products. Stan- dard analytical methods employ alumina PLOT columns which yield good resolution for low molecular weight hydrocarbons, but suffer from irreproducibility and poor sensitivity for polar hydrocarbons. In this study, Rt®-Alumina BOND/MAPD PLOT columns were used to separate both common light polar contaminants, including methyl acetylene and propadiene, as well as 4-vinylcy- clohexene, which is a high molecular weight impurity that normally requires a second test on an alternative column. By using an extended temperature program that employs the full thermal range of the column, 4-vinylcyclohexene, as well as all of the typical low molecular weight impurities in 1,3-butadiene, can be analyzed in a single test. Introduction 1,3-butadiene is typically isolated from products of the naphtha steam cracking process. Prior to purification, 1,3-butadiene can be contaminated with significant amounts of isobutene as well as other C4 isomers. In addition to removing these C4 isomeric contaminants during purification, it is also important that 1,3-butadiene be free of propadiene and methyl acetylene, which can interfere with catalytic polymerization. Alumina PLOT columns are the most commonly used GC column for this application, but the determination of polar hydrocarbon impurities at trace levels can be quite challenging and is highly dependent on the deactiva- tion of the alumina surface.
