"Primary Product" means a product of a chemical manufacturing process unit that shall be determined according to the procedures specified as follows:

a) If a chemical manufacturing process unit produces more than one intended chemical product, the product with the greatest annual design capacity on a mass basis determines the primary product of the process.

b) If a chemical manufacturing process unit has two more products that have the same maximum annual design capacity on a mass basis and if one of those chemicals is listed in Appendix A of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 218 or 219, then the listed chemical is considered the primary product. If more than one of the products is listed in Appendix A of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 218 or 219, then the owner or operator may designate as the primary product any of the listed chemicals.

c) For a chemical manufacturing process unit that is designed and operated as a flexible operation unit and is used predominantly to produce one or more of the listed chemicals in Appendix A of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 218 or 219, the primary product shall be determined based on the expected utilization for the five years following promulgation for existing sources and based on the expected utilization for the first five years after initial start-up for new sources.

1) If the flexible operation unit produces one product for the greatest annual operating time, then that product shall represent the primary product of the flexible operation unit.

2) If the flexible operation unit produces multiple chemicals equally based on operating time, then the product with the greatest annual production on a mass basis shall represent the primary product of the flexible operation unit.
