Correct Answer: (a) 0.25
A process equipment emits 5 kg/h of volatile organic compounds (VOCs).). If a hood placed over
the process equipment captures 95% of the VOCs, then the fugitive emission in kg/h is 0.25.
Explanation:
VOC emission = 5 Kg/h
Capturing Efficiency = 95%
Fugitive emission = \(\begin{align}
& \frac{5}{100}\times 5\,\text{Kg/h} \\
& =0.25\text{ Kg/h} \\
\end{align}\)
