1. Daily Plant Operation time (07:00 – 19:00) = 12 hours
2. Density of Concrete = 2380 kg/m3
3. Maximum Hourly Production rate of Concrete = 300 m3
(714 Ton)
4. Average Ingredient of Concrete Production:
Crushed Rock =
750 kg/m3 = 315 kg/Ton
10/20mm Aggregate =
1050 kg/m3 = 441 kg/Ton
Cementitious
Material = 440 kg/m3 = 185 kg/Ton
Water =
180 kg/m3 = 76 kg/Ton
5. Maximum Hourly Throughput Rate:

Aggregate = 540 Ton/hour
6. Exhaust air flowrate of dust collectors:
At

a Relative ratios in AP-42 Section 13.2.2 and 13.2.4
indicate that TSP emission factors may be estimated by multiplying PM-10 by

Emission for Particles from
Aggregate Stock Pile
Referring to (AP-42,
Section13.2.4, 1/95 Edition) the aggregate storage piles can be calculated.
(kg/Mg)
k = particle size multiplier
(dimensionless)
U = mean wind speed, meters per second (m/s)
M
= material moisture content (%)
Given, Moisture Content = 4.8%
k value for TSP (particle size
<30mm) = 0.74
Thus, emission factors for
aggregate storage plies are:
TSP = 0.74 ´ (0.0016) ´ [(U/2.2)1.3 / (4.8/2)1.4] kg/Mg
= 1.25´10-4 U1.3 kg/Mg
Emission for
Particles from Paved Access Road
Referring to (AP-42, Section
13.2.1, 10/97 Edition), Predictive Emission Factor Equation --- the quantity of
dust emissions from vehicle on a paved road be estimated using the following
empirical expression:
E = k (sL/2)0.65 ´ (W/3)1.5 …..(1)
Where
k = base emission factor for particle size range and units of
interest (see below)
sL = road surface silt loading (grams per square meter) (g/m2)
W = average weight (tons) of the vehicle traveling the road
Referring to (AP-42, Table
13.2-1.1.), constant for equation 1.

Mean vehicle weight is 18 Ton.
Thus, TSP emission factor = k (sL/2)0.65 ´ (W/3)1.5 g/VKT
=

(18/3)1.5 g/VKT
=
1.130 kg/VKT
Emission Point EP1 and EP2 (Emission from Ground Receiving Hopper)
Emission factor for TSP = 16.8´10-6 kg/Mg
Maximum throughput rate of
sand/aggregate = 540 Ton/h
Thus,
the maximum TSP emission rate =
540 ´16.8´10-6 kg/h
= 9.07´10-3
kg/h
= 2.52´10-3
g/s
With
water spraying system and 3-sides and top enclosed the emission rate is reduced
by 90%.
Therefore, the maximum TSP emission rate = 2.52´10-4 ´ 10% g/s
=
0.000252 g/s
Emission Point EP-7 (Emission from 225 Ton Aggregate Stock Pile)
Emission factor for TSP = 1.25´10-4 U1.3 kg/Mg
Assume the mean wind speed = 2.3
m/s
Maximum throughput rate of
sand/aggregate = 540 Ton/h
Thus,
the maximum TSP emission rate =
540 ´ 1.25´10-4 U1.3 kg/h
= 0.0675 U1.3 kg/h
With
water spraying system, 3-side and top enclosure and plastic curtain, the
emission rate is reduced by 95%.
Therefore, the maximum TSP emission rate = 0.0675 U1.3 ´ 5% kg/h
=
3.375´10-3 U1.3

=
0.00094 U1.3 g/s
Emission Point EP8 (Exhaust from Dust Collectors, DC4)
Assume the maximum emission
concentration for TSP = 50 mg/m3
The maximum exhaust gas flowrate =
5000 m3/h
Thus, the maximum TSP emission rate = 5000 ´

250 g/h
=
0.0694 g/s
Emission Point EP9 and 11 (Exhaust from Dust Collectors, DC5 and DC7)
Assume the maximum emission

0.0806 g/s
Emission Point EP10 and EP12 (Exhaust from Dust Collectors, DC6 and DC8)
Assume the maximum emission

With

22/ (1000 ´ 3600) g/ms
= 0.0069
g/ms
With
water spraying system and speed limit control, the emission rate is reduced by
