Abstract:
This appendix J to part 60 is proposed. The comment period will end 60 days after the appendix is published in the Federal Register. The anticipated publication date is early to mid-December. You should use this appendix if you need to:
1. Determine whether a chemical has a Henry's law constant at 25o C that is less than 0.1 y/x atmosphere per mole fraction.
2. Determine a fraction measured (Fm) value for a chemical.
3. Subtract the concentration of a chemical from a Method 25D concentration.
4. Determine the fraction removed (Fr) value for a chemical that has a Henry's law constant at 25o C that is greater than or equal to 0.1 y/x atmosphere per mole fraction.
5. Determine the fraction emitted (Fe) value for a chemical that has a Henry's law constant at 25o C that is greater than or equal to 0.1 y/x atmosphere per mole fraction.
6. Calculate a Henry's law constant at a specific temperature using a Henry's law constant at a different temperature for the same chemical.
