This document discusses plans to improve a facility's natural gas consumption by bypassing an oxidizer in the paint system. Bypassing the oxidizer and installing a roof-mounted blower to accelerate exhaust up and outside would reduce natural gas costs by an estimated $8,000 per month. An evaluation of equipment options, ductwork installation, and trial monitoring is outlined over April-June with an expected payback period of less than 4 months for the $24,500 investment. Potential demerits include increased boiler load and emissions into the environment, though within permit limits.

Boekpresentatie Transmedia Storytelling, stappenplan voor communicatieprojectenHogeschool Inholland
Met transmedia storytelling kun je een breed publiek op uiteenlopende manieren betrekken bij een verhaal. Het publiek kan zelfs een bijdrage leveren aan het verloop ervan. De beleving staat centraal, waardoor de onderliggende boodschap veel beter blijft hangen. Om een verhaal transmediaal goed over te laten komen, heb je een uitgebalanceerde mix van uiteenlopende (online en offline) mediakanalen nodig.
In Transmedia storytelling leer je aan de hand van een stappenplan een communicatieboodschap transmediaal over te brengen. In de vier hoofdstukken van het boek staan de volgende onderwerpen centraal:
- het verhaal afstemmen op de identiteit van je organisatie en de drijfveren van je publiek;
- het mediumspecifiek selecteren van geschikte mediakanalen;
- de randvoorwaarden om een goed verhaal op te bouwen;
- de uiteindelijke implementatie van een transmediaal storytelling communicatieproject.
Transmedia storytelling biedt veel praktijkcases waarin de stappen nader worden uitgelegd.
Dit boek is met name geschreven voor derde- en vierdejaars studenten hbo Communicatie. De inhoud is ook interessant voor communicatieprofessionals die ervoor open staan om aan de slag te gaan met nieuwe communicatiemogelijkheden.
What is Depreciation
Depreciation is the amount of money you can “write-off” (claim as expensed or used up) against the value of any assets used in the course of producing assessable income.
In the case of property investors, investors may offset their taxable income against expenditure on plant and equipment used to produce assessable income.
Plant and Equipment includes items such as Ovens, Dishwashers, Carpets Blinds, Lifts, etc. The ATO provides specific guidelines as to how these write-offs are to occur.
Who Can claim the Depreciation?
Depreciation can be claimed by the owner of the Plant and Equipment, the one who is earning income from the use of these items.

Mission/ Purpose
The store will create more friendly and welcoming environment. The goal is to have a business where people can come buy books set and have coffee eat baked goods or come in and buy baked goods. Later on we would like to have a book exchange program. This is a large project seeing that we are opening a new business.
SOW
This project will create a place for everyone to come and read or have meetings with friends or stop and grab something on the run. The product of this project is to have books, sweets enjoys a cup of coffee. We plan to have the coffee and bakery one unit. I will be the first thing when you walk in. The high level of deliveries is making sure the customers are happy and making sure they come back.
Objectives
The objective is to open a place where you can have multiple things in one business. It makes it easier so you are not running around everywhere.
Business Need
We will need a building we could rent or buy. We will also need more workers. The place needs to be in an area that a books store will do well.

4. Trial
•Run the oven without the oxidizer while using the
blower to expel the smoke out the stack
•Record the Natural Gas consumption and
compare to average daily consumption
•Note any changes in operation
5.
6. Trial Results
• The oxidizer was turned off for three days
• During that time , our Natural Gas consumption dropped
from 70,000 cu. ft / day to 40,000 cu. ft which equals 47%
which is about $8000 / month
7. Oxygen Meter Test
On August 23 at 10:30 am, the "sniffer " or multi gas monitor was used to check for abnormalities
at the oven stack on the roof. The oxidizer was by passed at the time of this test.
Four sets of readings were taken for a period of 5 minutes at each location.
Results were as follows
Location CO H2S O2 LEL
Carbon Hydrogen Oxygen Combustible
Monoxide Sulfide Gases
Measurement PPM PPM % %
Limits 35 - 70 10 - 20 19.5 - 23.5% 10%-20%

Investigate the concept of injection
of clean air into the smoke stack
at a 3~5 to 1 ratio and push it up into More commonly
the air to dissipate the visual concern used in industry
Will mix fresh air
and smoke at a
predetermined ratio
and drive it up into

Current Situation Schedule
Events
Our biggest consumers of Natural Gas are in the Paint system. The oven, the oxidizer, and April May
the hot water boiler. Equipment Evaluation
With our new generation paint from PPG, it has been determined that the oxidizer is not necessary Plan Approval
in our case to super heat the solvents and fumes from the paint oven.

The oxidizer also heats up a hot water generator which we use for paint system tank heating .

Improvement / Countermeasure Merit
By-pass the oxidizer exhaust piping with duct work and controls as per concept #2 shown in Reduce Natural Gas monthly Bill by up to 47% or $8000 / month
attachment.The oven exhaust would go directly outside with the assistance of a roof mounted blower.
This blower would also introduce outside air at a 3 : 1 ratio and accelerate it into the air to remove the bluish
color and the undesirable appearance seen during a previous trial.
By accelerating it up into the air, the odor noticed during the last trial would also be dissipated.
Installing an Air Scrubber would eliminate the exhaust particulate and the odors but an investigation
would be needed to ensure expectations are met without compromise
The by-pass would still allow oxidizer operation should the EPA restrictions become Demerit
tighter in the Rome area.
Hot Water boiler will have increased load, need to ensure PMs are adequate and back up plan is available
Increase emissions into environment (Blower Option only)although below allowable limits of permit
Must purge the oxidizer periodically to ensure no build up of fumes getting past the dampers
Monday morning paint system start up might need to be modified to allow the boiler to do the extra heating nec
cold weather months
An air scrubber would add to water consumption, and waste discharge
Comments: Evaluation / Further Instruction
Our air permit is based on the calculated emissions given the paint VOC data. Our
permit was based on no credit for oxidizer benefit which means we would be still within our permitted
restrictions but a baseline or scientific test could be performed to ensure compliance
14. Project Status
• Matching equipment to requirement
• Ensure expectation / result is achieved
• Investigating Vertical Scrubber application
• Capital cost
• Expense to operate – added water cost
• Procurement and Installation information
