The US EPA requires hazardous waste incinerators to meet a standard of 99.99% destruction and removal of organic hazardous constituents injected into the incinerator, which is referred to as "four nines DRE". The efficiency is calculated by measuring the mass flow rate of organic constituents entering the incinerator and the mass flow rate of constituents exiting the incinerator stack, as shown in Figure 1. Draw a mass-balance diagram and determine the allowable quantity of contaminant in the exit stream if the incinerator is burning 1.2000 g/s of hazardous constituents.
