Attached is a product-process summary (PPS) for the production of Triethanolamine via 

ammonlysis of ethylene oxide. All emissions and process information is referenced to 

ethanolamine (141435A). This PPS was developed as part of the Industrial Profile 

project in support of the Hazardous Organic NESHAP (HON) regulatory effort. 

Information in this PPS is used as a basis for emissions and cost impact estimates for the 

HON program.
