toluene is 0.1 ppmv (dry gas basis). The moisture content in the stack is typically 10%, and
stack conditions are maintained at 80 °C and atmospheric pressure. The stack gas velocity is 8
m/s. The diameter of the stack is 0.3 m. If the paint booth is used 8 hours per day, 5 days per
week, 52 weeks per year then calculate the:
a) Volumetric flowrate. (m³/s)
b) Molar volume (L/mol)
c) Air release (lbs/year)
NOTE: Air Release = (volumetric flow, m³ /s) × (concentration, mg/m³) × (operating time,
sec/year)
