REPORT

The Technical Standards Committees of the Consejo Nacional de Ciencia y Tecnología, [National Science and Technology Council] CONACYT, are the bodies responsible for studying standards. They are composed of representatives from Private Enterprise, the Government, the Consumer Protection Organisation and University Academia. In order to ensure a national and international consen sus, projects prepared by the Committees are subject to a period of public consultation, during which anyone may submit observations. This study was approved as NSO 13.11.02:07 ATMOSPHERIC EMISSIONS. STATIONARY POINT SOURCES by Technical Standards Committ ee 11. Formal approval of the standard requires ratification by the Board of Directors and the Executive Agreement of the Ministry of the Economy. This standard is subject to permanent revision to ensure it will be relevant at all times to the needs and demands of current techniques. Duly supported requests for its revision will receive the closest attention from the Council’s technical body: The Department of Standards, Metrology and Quality Certification.

1. PURPOSE This Standard establishes the maximum permissible limits of concentration of polluting emissions discharged into the atmosphere, generated by stationary point sources. These limits have been established to safeguard health and the environment.

2. FIELD OF APPLICATION

This Standard applies throughout all of the national territory, in matters concerning the prevention and control of atmospheric pollution, in any state of matter , generated by emissions from stationary point sources.

3. DEFINITIONS 3.1 New activity: an industrial, commercial or service installation which, in order to carry

out its business activity, needs to use stationary point sources of atmospheric emissions, and which, when this Standard comes into force, is in any of the following stages: prefeasibility, feasibility or draft.

3.2 Operating activity: an industrial, commercial or service installation with stationary point

sources of atmospheric emission, which, when this Standard comes into force, is installed, operating or in the project stage .

3.3 Dry base: The result obtained when the amount of the sample taken for analysis does not

include the amount of water contained in it. 3.4 Biomass: energy material obtained direc tly or indirectly from biological resources. 3.5 Boiler: Any enclosed equipment in which steam is generated. Superheaters, reheaters,

economisers or other pressure components, connected directly to the boiler, without the involvement of valves, will be consid ered part of the boiler.

3.6 Nominal Capacity: The thermal design power of a combustion unit declared by the

manufacturer. 3.7 Solid fossil fuels: Petroleum coke and varieties of coal whose fixed carbon content varies

between 10% and 90% by weight. 3.8 Liquid and gaseous fossil fuels: Hydrocarbons derived from petroleum and natural gas

which may have paraffinic, naphthenic, olefinic or aromatic properties in any of their combinations.

3.9 Normal pressure and temperature conditions (NPTC): conditions where the pressure

is 101.3 kPa (1 atmosphere) and the temperature is 25ºC (77ºF or 298.15 K).


3.10 Atmospheric pollution: alteration of the normal composition of the air caused by the

presence in the atmosphere of one or more substances which have been added directly or indirectly by man or by natural sources in amounts, or of a nature or duration, which are sufficient to adversely affect flora and fauna, materials and man himself.

3.11 Atmospheric emissions: releases or discharges into the atmosphere of particles, gases or

forms of energy, emanating from a stationary or moving source. 3.12 Indirect heating equipment: External combustion equipment in which the material for

heating does not come into direct contact with the combustion gases. 3.13 Stationary sources: buildings, structures or plants sited permanently in a single place

which emit, or can emit, any kind of pollutant. 3.14 Stationary point source: a stationary source whose emissions are discharged into the

atmosphere via a flue or chimney. 3.15 Maximum permissible limits: values or parameters which establish the maximum

degree of concentration of pollutants which can be discharged or emitted into the atmosphere by a stationary point source.

3.16 Full Load Measurement: measurement of the emissions when the source is operating at

maximum capac ity, irrespective of the production process concerned, subject to the safety parameters specified according to the design and construction of the source.

3.17 Opacity: the degree to which the emissions reduce the transmission of light and darken

the visibility of an object in its surroundings. 3.18 Total suspended particles (TSP): this group comprises finely divided solid or liquid

particles, other than steam. 3.19 Emergency plant: Electricity generating equipment used to compensate for a failure in

electricity supply from the local grid, limited to 360 hours/year. ABBREVIATIONS AND SYMBOLS
