Table 5 Summary of Feasibility Assessment for Sample Print & Paint Co. – Odour Source Description of Control Measure Technically Feasible? Notes Printing Operations Thermal Oxidation Technically Feasible Installed System is operational on – – previously installed both printing process emissions. Paint Spray Booth Thermal Oxidation Technically Feasible Current operations utilize a dry arrestor filter, water curtain and stack optimization. Printing Operations Catalytic Oxidation Technically Feasible Current operations utilize alternative control measures. Paint Spray Booth Paint Spray Booth Water Curtain Technically Feasible Installed at the facility as a particulate – previously installed control system; however, removal of paint particles also removes the associated VOCs and reduces the overall emissions. Printing Operations Carbon Filter Technically Not Feasible Activated carbon filter systems are effective on low VOC concentration Paint Spray Booth streams and the anticipated loadings from the production source would create a significant potential for breakthrough and result in uncontrolled odour releases. Secondary Painting Carbon Filter Technically Feasible Effective for control of source with – Sources previously installed on Paint moderate flow rate and low odour Kitchen exhaust loading.
