Storage Tank Emissions calculations
Storage Tank Emissions calculations
(OP)
I am looking at options to address odor concerns from several atmospheric storage tanks. I need to determine the gas flow through the gooseneck vents in cfm or cubic meters per hr. I do not know how to perform the calculation other than knowing that it will be based on fill rate. What information do I need and what formula is used?
Thanks for the help.

AP-42, Chapter 7 seems to be the regulating document

Because of the cost for recent Windows updates, the software has morphed into a spreadsheet add-in:

Let us know if you have any difficulty and if this method is easy to understand...
