Method of calculation of emissions of heavy metals

Chapter 1. General provisions

1. This Method of calculation of emissions of heavy metals (further – the Technique) is developed according to Item 5 of article 22 of the Ecological code of the Republic of Kazakhstan (further – the Code).

2. Calculation of emissions of heavy metals is perfromed by the operators of objects specified in Item 9 of article 22 of the Code within provision of the reporting for the register of emissions and transfer of pollutants.

Chapter 2. Calculation of emissions of heavy metals on objects

Paragraph 1. Calculation of emissions of heavy metals on objects of oil processing industry

3. Calculation of emissions of heavy metals in the atmosphere the companies of oil processing industry are calculated by formula:

E pollutant = AR production x EF pollutant, where:

E pollutant – annual emissions of pollutant in atmospheric air,

AR production – activities indicators in case of production,

EF pollutant – coefficient of emissions of pollutant.

4. Coefficients of emissions of heavy metals in atmospheric air in case of conversion and oil storage, aeration and torch burning in case of oil and gas extraction are given in Appendix 1 to this Technique.

Paragraph 2. Calculation of emissions of heavy metals on objects of energy industry

5. Calculation of emissions of heavy metals on objects of energy industry is perfromed depending on type of the used fuel.

6. Classification of types of fuel for calculation of emissions of heavy metals is given on objects of energy industry in Appendix 2 to this Technique.

7. Calculation of emissions of heavy metals in energy industry are calculated by formula:

E pollutant = AR consumption of fuel x EF pollutant, where:

E pollutant – annual emissions of pollutant in atmospheric air,

AR fuel consumption – the activities indicators characterizing fuel consumption

EF pollutant – coefficient of emissions of pollutant.

8. Coefficients of emissions of heavy metals in atmospheric air when burning different types of fuel are given on objects of energy industry in Appendix 3 to this Technique.

Paragraph 3. Calculation of emissions of heavy metals on objects of metal industry

9. Calculation of emissions of heavy metals in metal industry are calculated by formula:

E pollutant = AR production x EF pollutant, where:

E pollutant – annual emissions of pollutant in atmospheric air,

AR production – activities indicators in case of production of metals,

EF pollutant – coefficient of emissions of pollutant.

10. Coefficients of emissions of heavy metals in atmospheric air in case of production of iron, steel, lead, zinc and copper are given in Appendix 4 to this Technique.
