Interpolation of the data in this table for process weight rates up to 60,000 pounds/hour (lbs/hr) shall be accomplished by use of the equation:

       E = 4.10(P)0.67,

and interpolation and extrapolation of the data for process weight rates in excess of 60,000 pounds/hour (lbs/hr) shall be accomplished by use of the equation:

       E = 55.0((P)0.11) - 40

where E = rate of emission in pounds/hour (lbs/hr) and P equals process weight rate in tons/hour.
