How are emission from Charbroilers and Deep Fat Frying Operations Reported?
Emissions (PM and VOC) from charbroilers and deep fat fryers operated by restaurants and eatery establishments directly servicing consumers (e.g. fast foods, cafeteria, etc.) should not be reported under the AER program since these emissions are classified as area sources and are calculated using specific methodologies. However, for commercial and large operations of packaged foods, PM and VOC emissions should be reported on Form B4 or B4U (contact Help Hotline for emission factors if needed). For these facilities, emissions from burning of fuel are reported on Form B1 and B1U.
