i is the subscript denoting an individual ink
n is the number of different inks subject to the same emission limitation applied during any day on a printing line
Ci is the VOC content in percent VOC by volume of the volatile fraction in each ink (i) as applied
Li is the volume of each ink (i) as applied in liters (gallons)

(a) or (b) may comply by means of this subsection only by obtaining prior department approval through an order issued under s. 285.13 (2), Stats., or through a permit. Any approval granted by the department under this paragraph shall be submitted to, and will not become effective for federal purposes until approved by, the administrator or designee as a source-specific revision to the department’s state implementation plan for ozone. NR 422.04(2)(2) General methods. The surface coating or printing emission limitations shall be achieved by one of the following: NR 422.04(2)(a)(a) The application of low solvent content coating or ink technology.

NR 422.04(2)(d)(d) An equivalent system or approach demonstrated to reliably control emissions to a level at or below the applicable emission limit and approved by the department. Any approval granted by the department under this paragraph shall be submitted to, and will not become effective for federal purposes until approved by, the administrator or designee as a source-specific revision to the department’s state implementation plan for ozone.

The design, operation and efficiency of the application system must be certified in writing by the owner or operator and submitted to the department for approval. NR 422.04(3)(b)2.2. The solvent usage per coated part for application system must be less than or equal to the solvent usage per coated part at the applicable emission limitation using baseline transfer efficiency. NR 422.04(3)(c)(c) Each alternative control method or system approval granted by the department under this subsection shall be submitted to, and will not become effective for federal purposes until approved by, the administrator or designee as a source-specific revision to the department’s state implementation plan for ozone. NR 422.04(4)(4) Capture systems. The design, operation and efficiency of any capture system used in conjunction with sub. (2) (b), (c) or (d) shall be certified in writing by the owner or operator. The efficiency of the capture system is subject to approval by the department. For sources subject to an emission limitation under this chapter which is expressed in units of pounds VOC per gallon of coating or ink, excluding water, the efficiency of the capture system shall be great enough to insure that for any day either 95% overall control is achieved or the emissions from the controlled line are less than or equal to the amount determined using the following equation: where:
E is the total allowable daily emissions of VOCs in kilograms (pounds) from all coatings or inks subject to the same numerical emission limitation and applied on the controlled line
i is the subscript denoting an individual coating or ink
n is the number of different coatings or inks applied
Ai is the allowable emission rate for the coatings or inks pursuant to the requirements of this chapter in kilograms per liter (pounds per gallon) of coating or ink, excluding water, delivered to the applicator
Bi is the amount of coating material or ink in liters (gallons), delivered to the applicator during the actual production day
Ci is the volume fraction of solids in the coating or ink, delivered to the applicator during the actual production day
Di is the theoretical volume fraction of solids in the coating or ink necessary to meet the allowable emission rate pursuant to the requirements of this chapter calculated from:
where:
Pi is the density of the VOC used in the coating or ink delivered to the applicator during the actual production day in kilograms per liter (pounds per gallon). If the coating or ink does not contain any VOCs, or if the actual VOC density cannot be demonstrated by the owner or operator, a value of 0.88 kilograms per liter (7.36 pounds per gallon) shall be used for P.
