TermDefinition
Add ChemicalEnables entry into the panel.
Chemical TypeYou can select between:

• Inert
• Inorganic

Default Detector RFIf your detector responds to a chemical differently than its actual concentration, you should adjust the RF (Response Factor) to ensure you have accurate readings.
RF=(Actual Concentration)/(Detector Response)Having selected a detector, you can then edit the Response Factor to a number other than 1. If you change the number, it will automatically save. If you change your mind, select the Trash Can icon and try again.
Detector Type CombinationsWhen a tour is built, Chateau looks at each stream in the Tour.

In Resources / Stream, each Stream has a Detector Type assigned to it. This Detector type is displayed here so the tech will know which type of detector to use.

Four Boolean FieldsYou can select one or more of these, as they apply.

ReportableYou can mark each chemical as being reportable or non-reportable.

Non-reportable means no emission will be calculated on this part of the stream.
SearchQuickly find any chemical.
Selecting Organic or InorganicYou can then select a detector type.
Use alternative Factor SetIf you select this, Chateau will be able to apply a Factor Set to the Components with this chemical different from the Factor Set which may be assigned to the majority of the Components in the same LUnit.
