Illinois Administrative Code
Title 35 - ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
Part 219 - ORGANIC MATERIAL EMISSION STANDARDS AND LIMITATIONS FOR THE METRO EAST AREA
Subpart A - GENERAL PROVISIONS
Section 219.110 - Vapor Pressure of Organic Material or Solvent

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 38, September 20, 2024

a) If the organic material or solvent consists of only a single compound, the vapor pressure must be determined by ASTM Method D2879-86 (incorporated by reference in Section 219.112 of this Part) or the vapor pressure may be obtained from a publication such as: Boublik, T., V. Fried and E. Hala, "The Vapor Pressure of Pure Substances," Elsevier Scientific Publishing Co., New York (1973); Perry's Chemical Engineer's Handbook, McGraw-Hill Book Company (1984); CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics, Chemical Rubber Publishing Company (1986-87); and Lange's Handbook of Chemistry, John A. Dean, editor, McGraw-Hill Book Company (1985).

b) Except as provided in subsection (d), if the organic material or solvent is in a mixture made up of both organic material compounds and compounds which are not organic material, the vapor pressure must be determined by the following equation:

where:

Pom

=

Total vapor pressure of the portion of the mixture which is composed of organic material;

n

=

Number of organic material components in the mixture;

i

=

Subscript denoting an individual component;

Pi

=

Vapor pressure of an organic material component determined in accordance with subsection (a);

Xi

=

Mole fraction of the organic material component of the total organic mixture.

c) If the organic material or solvent is in a mixture made up only of organic material compounds, the vapor pressure must be determined by ASTM Method D2879-86 (incorporated by reference in Section 219.112) or by the above equation.

d) For hand-wipe cleaning solvents used at aerospace facilities subject to Section 219.219(g)(2), the composite vapor pressure of a cleaning solvent consisting of multiple components must be determined by the following equation:

where:

PPc

=

Composite vapor pressure of the cleaning solvent in mmHg at 20 °C;

n

=

Number of components in the cleaning solvent;

i

=

Subscript denoting an individual VOM-containing component;

j

=

Subscript denoting an individual non-VOM component;

Wi

=

Weight of a VOM-containing component in grams;

Wj

=

Weight of a non-VOM component in grams;

Ww

=

Weight of water in grams;

MWi

=

Molecular weight a VOM-containing component in grams per gram-mole;

MWj

=

Molecular weight of a non-VOM component in grams per gram-mole

MWw

=

Molecular weight of water in grams per gram-mole;

VPi

=

Vapor pressure of a VOM-containing component in mmHg at 20 °C.
