1 A list of HAPs and other compounds from Fuel Oils was obtained from EPA Doc. No. 745‐B‐99‐003

Data from that document are shown on the worksheet named "CmpdsFuelOil". The

values provided are the sum of HAPs from that document

2 Essentially all the compounds in Fuel Oils and Natural gas would fall under the category TOC or VOC, these fuels are

composed almost entirely of volatile or semi‐volatile organic compounds

3 This value is obtained from the turpentine content of Virginia Pine. Turpentine is generally 70% or more alpha‐ and beta‐pinene

and almost all of the remaining compounds have identical molecular weights (all terpenes). This sample of VirginiaPine contained 2% turpentine.

5 See worksheet named "Gasoline"

Notes: Data for organic halides and organic compounds in fuels are difficult to obtain. Based on the search conducted, it cannot be said that the data are not ava

not conducted. Thus NF, for Not Found, is used in the table instead of NA for not available. Clearly formaldehdye, individual organic compound, and individual or

available. These are compounds at trace levels in the fuels that will be combusted. The trace organics differ from the metals because metals are not destroyed in 

organics are. Since there is little or no relationship between the trace organics going into a boiler and the amount released from the stack, there has been no "driv

Additionally, these trace compounds do not affect the fuel quality and are of no real interest to the users. It is likely that a deep enough search through periodical

trace organics in these fuels, but, as stated, an exhaustive search was not conducted.
