Open Table
| To conduct a performance test for the following pollutant. . . | You must. . . | Using. . . |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Particulate Matter | a. Select sampling ports location and the number of traverse points | Method 1 in appendix A-1 to part 60 of this chapter. |
| b. Determine velocity and volumetric flow-rate of the stack gas | Method 2, 2F, or 2G in appendix A-2 to part 60 of this chapter. | |
| c. Determine oxygen and carbon dioxide concentrations of the stack gas | Method 3A or 3B in appendix A-2 to part 60 of this chapter, or ASTM D6522-00 (Reapproved 2005),a or ANSI/ASME PTC 19.10-1981.a | |
| d. Measure the moisture content of the stack gas | Method 4 in appendix A-3 to part 60 of this chapter. | |
| e. Measure the particulate matter emission concentration | Method 5 or 17 (positive pressure fabric filters must use Method 5D) in appendix A-3 and A-6 to part 60 of this chapter and a minimum 1 dscm of sample volume per run. | |
| f. Convert emissions concentration to lb/MMBtu emission rates | Method 19 F-factor methodology in appendix A-7 to part 60 of this chapter. | |
| 2. Mercury | a. Select sampling ports location and the number of traverse points | Method 1 in appendix A-1 to part 60 of this chapter. |
| b. Determine velocity and volumetric flow-rate of the stack gas | Method 2, 2F, or 2G in appendix A-2 to part 60 of this chapter. | |
| c. Determine oxygen and carbon dioxide concentrations of the stack gas | Method 3A or 3B in appendix A-2 to part 60 of this chapter, or ASTM D6522-00 (Reapproved 2005),a or ANSI/ASME PTC 19.10-1981.a | |
| d. Measure the moisture content of the stack gas | Method 4 in appendix A-3 to part 60 of this chapter. | |
| e. Measure the mercury emission concentration | Method 29, 30A, or 30B in appendix A-8 to part 60 of this chapter or Method 101A in appendix B to part 61 of this chapter or ASTM Method D6784-02.a Collect a minimum 2 dscm of sample volume with Method 29 of 101A per run. Use a minimum run time of 2 hours with Method 30A. | |
| f. Convert emissions concentration to lb/MMBtu emission rates | Method 19 F-factor methodology in appendix A-7 to part 60 of this chapter. | |
| 3. Carbon Monoxide | a. Select the sampling ports location and the number of traverse points | Method 1 in appendix A-1 to part 60 of this chapter. |
| b. Determine oxygen and carbon dioxide concentrations of the stack gas | Method 3A or 3B in appendix A-2 to part 60 of this chapter, or ASTM D6522-00 (Reapproved 2005),a or ANSI/ASME PTC 19.10-1981.a | |
| c. Measure the moisture content of the stack gas | Method 4 in appendix A-3 to part 60 of this chapter. | |
| d. Measure the carbon monoxide emission concentration | Method 10, 10A, or 10B in appendix A-4 to part 60 of this chapter or ASTM D6522-00 (Reapproved 2005)a and a minimum 1 hour sampling time per run. |
