Continuous Emission Monitoring

Continuous Emission Monitoring, Second Edition is the most comprehensive source of information on the latest technical and regulatory issues that are affecting the design, application, and certification of CEM systems. It provides a thorough discussion of CEM systems, how they work, their advantages and drawbacks, and the regulatory requirements that govern their operation. Equally suitable for an environmental engineer in a plant or control agency, a CEM user, or an inspector/auditor, this book makes it possible to assess the operating characteristics of commercial systems and to evaluate them for a specific application. Thoroughly referenced, with numerous illustrations, it features: * A comprehensive review of regulations, with clear information on changes * New measurement techniques, designs for "smart" analyzers, and advanced monitoring approaches * New chapters on flow rate and continuous particulate monitors * Techniques for recordkeeping, generating reports, and using data acquisition and handling systems * Quality assurance/quality control programs CEMs are becoming a fact of life in regulatory programs throughout the United States, Canada, Europe, and Asia. Environmental professionals as well as vendors and manufacturers will turn to Continuous Emission Monitoring for clear, up-to-date information on the technical and regulatory issues shaping this dynamic field.

Environmental Engineering Completely revised and updated, The foremost reference on continuous emission monitoring Air pollution control agencies are incorporating continuous emission monitoring (CEM) systems in their increasingly rigorous regulatory programs. Once primarily used to measure the performance of air control monitoring devices, today CEM systems are increasingly applied in environmental regulatory programs. More recently, they have been applied to establish emission "allowances" in the U.S. acid rain control program. These stringent regulations have led to significant developments in CEM technology and application.

Continuous Emission Monitoring System Subset : User's Guide

This report outlines specifications for the design, installation, certification, and operation of automated continuous emission monitoring (CEM) systems used to measure gaseous releases of SO2 and NOx from thermal power generation. The procedures used during certification testing of each installed CEM system are also presented. This report also describes Quality Assurance and Quality Control (QA/QC) procedures, including the contents of a site-specific QA/QC manual which must be developed by the system operator for each installed CEM system.
