Abstract

The report gives results of a review of all available data characterizing particulate emissions from ferroalloy-producing electric arc furnaces. The data were summarized and rated in terms of reliability. Total and size-specific emission factors were developed for the ferroalloy industry. The ferroalloy industry and furnace operation are described in detail, with emphasis on factors affecting emissions. A replacement for Section 7.4, Ferroalloy Production, in AP-42 was prepared which includes size-specific emission factors.
