Discussion Post: Advanced Air Quality Control
As a continuation of our course project due in Unit VII (A Permit by Rule (PBR) Evaluation for Painting Operation Facility), complete the next section-VOC Content Minus Water and Exempt Solvents-of your proposal by following the instructions carefully, and then submit your continued draft of your evaluation document into Blackboard for grading.
• Closely read the required reading assignment from the textbook as well as the unit lesson in the study guide.
• Open your proposal draft, and make any improvements to your draft, using your professor's feedback from the Unit V Mini Project.
• Open the Unit VI Study Guide, read the Lesson, and then review the calculations demonstrated and explained regarding VOC content minus water and exempt solvent calculations for our scenario. Be sure to use the scenario data instead of the data used in the study guide examples.
• Make your Unit VI work the fifth level 1 heading titled "VOC Content Minus Water and Exempt Solvents." Describe the environmental, health, and safety (EHS) implications of the work system while pulling from the textbook as well as any other relevant sources that are presented in the unit lesson in the study guide. In your description of the EHS implications of the system, be sure to discuss the methods for sampling, quantitatively analyzing, and evaluating air quality.
• Perform and present (not hand-written, but neatly typed) the calculations for the following in this section of your project: (i) gallons of water in one gallon of coating, (ii) gallons of exempt solvent (ES) in one gallon of coating, and (iii) pounds of VOC in one gallon of coating (less the water and ES) per day. Determine if the work system is still going to need any administrative controls to keep it is compliance with the state requirements.
• In your abstract section (page 2 of the document), write one or two sentences that reflect your work for this unit. Remember that we are adding one sentence per unit to reflect our work as we go, with the final abstract length being about 8 to 10 sentences long.
The response must include a reference list. Using one-inch margins, double-space, Times New Roman 12 pnt font and APA style of writing and citations.
