SMC Emission Factor Accepted into UEF Standard

The ANS Board of Standards has approved ACMA’s proposal to expand the current UEF standard to include emission factors for the production of sheet molding compound (SMC). ACMA is an ANSI approved standards developer. The updated standard, designated as ANSI/ACMA/ICPA UEF-1-2009, Estimating Emission Factors from Open Molding and Other Composite Processes, will help the composites industry satisfy state and federal requirement for permit compliance and reporting.
