Sodium silicate has regulation status as a boiler water additive in the preparation of steam that will contact food (23) in zinc-silicon dioxide matrix coatings (24) and as a constituent of cellophane used for packaging food TTs). 

Some classes of solvents are inherently unstable. Final breakdown products and/or intermediates may themselves be chemically reactive or alter the chromatographic properties of the solvent enough to be a cause of concern to the analyst. To further illustrate this, two classes of solvents (ethers and chlorinated solvents) and acetone will be discussed. Ethanol, due to its highly regulated status in its neat (or 200 proof) form, is often available in a denatured ft>rm. There are many denaturants for ethanol and they will be presented in this section. Finally, problems associated with water will be considered with regard to the pluses and minuses of manufactured versus inhouse-produced sourcing.

The 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments Hst 189 hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) that the EPA must regulate to enforce maximum achievable control technology (MACT) to standards which are to be set by the year 2000. The 33/50 project calls for reduction of emissions of 17 specified solvents to predetermined levels by 1995. The SARA statute provides a mechanism by which the community can be informed of the existence, quantities, and releases of toxic chemicals, and requires that anyone releasing specific toxic chemicals above a threshold level to annually submit a toxic chemical release form to the EPA. The status of various ketones under these regulations is shown in Table 4. 

The U.S. Food and Dmg Administration (FDA) has affirmed the status of beeswax as Generally Recognised as Safe (GRAS) (5) in Tide 21 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Section 184.1973 (21 CFR 184.1973). The major use of beeswax is in the cosmetic industry, with smaller amounts used in pharmaceuticals and candle production. 

Colorants currentiy in use and thek status are shown in Tables 1—4. These Hsts are accurate as of January 1993 but are subject to change. Such changes as well as any changes in the regulation of color additives are routinely pubHshed in the Federal Register The FDA, Division of Colors and Cosmetics also provides additional regulatory information (14). 

The legal status of dairy substitutes varies widely among countries. In the United States, the FDA has held that filled products should be nutritionally equivalent to the products they resemble. In the case of imitation milks, the FDA proposed regulations for nutritional equivalency (31). A section of the Food, Dmg and Cosmetic Act defines misbranded foods, and the FDA has set up standards of identity for foods under this part of the law (32) which includes standards for imitation milks, cheese, and creams (32). 

The specific requirements to complete the NSR process will vaiy depending on the source location and characteristics, the federal and state regulations which apply, the compliance status of the facihty if it is existing, and the nature of other sources in the area. Atmospheric dispersion modehng is often necessary to determine the maximum offsite ambient air concentrations of the various pollutants that will be...
