Sec. 34.21  Standards for exhaust emissions.



    (a) Exhaust emissions of smoke from each new aircraft gas turbine 

engine of



[[Page 804]]



class T8 manufactured on or after February 1, 1974, shall not exceed a 

smoke number (SN) of 30.

    (b) Exhaust emissions of smoke from each new aircraft gas turbine 

engine of class TF and of rated output of 129 kilonewtons (29,000 

pounds) thrust or greater, manufactured on or after January 1, 1976, 

shall not exceed



SN=83.6 (rO)-0.274 (rO is in kilonewtons).



    (c) Exhaust emission of smoke from each new aircraft gas turbine 

engine of class T3 manufactured on or after January 1, 1978, shall not 

exceed a smoke number (SN) of 25.

    (d) Gaseous exhaust emissions from each new aircraft gas turbine 

engine shall not exceed:

    (1) For Classes TF, T3, T8 engines greater than 26.7 kilonewtons 

(6000 pounds) rated output:

    (i) Engines manufactured on or after January 1, 1984:



Hydrocarbons: 19.6 grams/kilonewton r0.



    (ii) Engines manufactured on or after July 7, 1997.



Carbon Monoxide: 118 grams/kilonewton r0.



    (iii) Engines of a type or model of which the date of manufacture of 

the first individual production model was on or before December 31, 

1995, and for which the date of manufacture of the individual engine was 

on or before December 31, 1999:



Oxides of Nitrogen: (40+2(rPR)) grams/kilonewtons r0.



    (iv) Engines of a type or model of which the date of manufacture of 

the first individual production model was after December 31, 1995, or 

for which the date of manufacture of the individual engine was after 

December 31, 1999:



Oxides of Nitrogen: (32+1.6 (rPR)) grams/kilonewtons r0.



    (v) The emission standards prescribed in paragraphs (d)(1)(iii) and 

(iv) of this section apply as prescribed beginning July 7, 1997.

    (2) For Class TSS Engines manufactured on or after January 1, 1984:



Hydrocarbons=140 (0.92) rPR grams/kilonewtons r0.



    (e) Smoke exhaust emissions from each gas turbine engine of the 

classes specified below shall not exceed:

    (1) Class TF of rated output less than 26.7 kilonewtons (6000 

pounds) manufactured on or after August 9, 1985



SN=83.6(rO)-0.274 (rO is in kilonewtons) not to exceed a 

maximum of SN=50.



    (2) Classes T3, T8, TSS, and TF of rated output equal to or greater 

than 26.7 kilonewtons (6000 pounds) manufactured on or after January 1, 

1984



SN=83.6(rO)-0.274 (rO is in kilonewtons) not to exceed a 

maximum of SN=50.



    (3) For Class TP of rated output equal to or greater than 1,000 

kilowatts manufactured on or after January 1, 1984:



SN=187(ro)-0.168 (ro is in kilowatts)



    (f) The standards set forth in paragraphs (a), (b), (c), (d), and 

(e) of this section refer to a composite gaseous emission sample 

representing the operating cycles set forth in the applicable sections 

of subpart G of this part, and exhaust smoke emissions emitted during 

operations of the engine as specified in the applicable sections of 

subpart H of this part, measured and calculated in accordance with the 

procedures set forth in those subparts.
