MACT vs RACT regulations
- Thread starter FixerMan
- Start date
MACT only comes into play if your process is covered under section 112 of the Clean Air Act. The 1990 modifications set up various industrial groups and would eventually issue MACT regulations for that industry. MACT is the emission levels from control technology of the best controlled 12% of the industry. It becomes a Command and Control type of regulation.
RACT is less stringent and is implemented in non attainment areas, typically for NOx and SOx.
