Velocity and Flow Rate Determination (Method 2) 

Velocity and temperature were measured at the points determined by Method 1 during the test 

rtms. Wind tunnel calibrated Pitot tubes were used to measure velocity head. Type K 

thermocouples with digital pyrometers were used to measure temperature. Cyclonic flow was 

determined prior to testing using the test points listed in Table 4. The average cyclonic flow was 

less than twenty degrees as stipulated in Method 2. The cyclonic flow results are shown in Table 

1 and Appendix A.

Carbon Dioxide• Oxygen• and Dry Molecular Weight Determination (Method 3) 

A portion of the gas from the"sampling trains was collected in Tedlar bags. Analysis of carbon 

dioxide (CO2) and oxygen (02) were performed with an Orsat Gas Analyzer. Dry molecular 

weight was calculated from CO2 and 02.concentrations. 

Moisture Content Determination (Method 4) 

Three one hour moisture runs were performed in conjunction with the FTIR testing. Run I was 

discounted from the report due to process changes occurring during the test. A fourth test was 

performed to achieve the required three one hour test runs. Water entrained in the stack gas was 

condensed and collected in chilled impingers. The volume of gas sampled was measured with a 

calibrated dry gas meter. Moisture content was calculated from the gas and liquid volumes. A 

diagram of the moisture sampling train is shown in Figure 1.

Fourier Transform Infrared Monitor (FTIR). 

Pollutant concentrations were quantified in accordance with EPA Reference Method 320. Test 

contaminants measured and reported using the FTIR included Hydrogen Chloride and Hydrogen 

Fluoride. 

Western Environmental operates an extractive Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrometer 

manufactured by Industrial Monitor and Control Corporation (IMACC) of Austin, Texas. The 

FTIR is composed of fourmain systems; the analytical bench, the cell, analytical software, and 

extractive sampling system. 

® The IMACC FTIR operates on a Nicolet bench with a zinc selenide beam splitter, HeNe 

laser, an IR source, and an MCT-A detector. 

The cell is composed of objective and field mirrors, which are gold plated. The cell is 

designed as part of the FTIR unit, which is capable of operating at a path length ofl0 

meters. The cell Volume is 2.728 liters. The cell is operated at a temperature of 185°C 

and is coated with nickel to prevent corrosion. Analytical system leak checks were 

performed prior to any testing. Results of the leak check are provided on the field data 

sheets contained in the Appendices. 

The analytical software used by Western Environmental is Nicolet based software with 

IMACC modifications to improve the software suitability for extractive FTIR 

monitoring. The primary software main programs utilized in the collection of data are 

Omnic and IMACC. All Graphical presentation during sampling was performed by 

Concview. 

The extractive sampling system is composed of a heated probe and heated filter assembly 

operated, at 185 ° C. The filter assembly was connected to a heated sample line that 

delivers the sample to the FTIR cell. The sample was drawn through the cell at 10 liters 

per minute by a heated sample pump connected to the exhaust port of the ceil.

FTIR Sampling System 

This method applies to the analysis of vapor phase organic or inorganic compounds, which 

absorb energy in the mid-infrared spectral region, about 400 to 4500 cm 

1 (25 to 2.5 lam), This 

method is used to determine compound-specific concentrations in a multi-component vapor 

phase sample, which is contained in a closed-path gas cell. Spectra of samples.are collected 

using double beam infrared absorption spectroscopy. Omnic software is used to analyze the 

sample spectra and report the compound concentrations. 

Analytical range and sensitivity depend on the frequency-dependent analyte absorptivity,. 

instrument configuration, data collection parameters, and gas stream compoSition. Instrument 

factors include: 

® spectral resolution, 

® interferometer signal averaging time 

® detector sensitivity and response, and 

® absorption path length. 

An estimate of gas composition was made based on previous test data, and during preliminary 

screening. The spiking for hydrogen chloride was performed in accordance with EPA 320 in that 

Western Environmental Services and Testing, Inc. 05-8018 8 
Acrne Brick Company

the spike value was based on preliminary observations and expected concentrations. Spiking for 

Hydrogen Chloride has been demonstrated on similar sources in past test survey's and was not 

performed during this testing. Optimal resolution for the IMACC unit is 0.5 cm-1. Instrumental 

configuration was selected based upon manufacturer suggestions and previous experience. 

Spectral interferants were identified using the selected band areas.from reference spectra and 

interferant spectra. Analytical method development included linearization of compounds over 

the range of detection, line shift adjustment, and inclusion of interferants. The baseline noise of 

the system was measured in each analytical region to dete•anine the Maximum Analytical 

Uncertainty (MAU) of the instrument configuration for the analyte(s) of interest. 

The error bars listed in the concentration files represent three times the standard deviation of the 

residual spectra after the interferants have been removed and the component of interest is 

quantified and removed. Therefore, the quantitation limit is the mean of the error bar divided by 

three. For the purposes of this testing the reporting limit is three times the standard deviation of 

the test data and is represented as the error bar: A hard copy of the analytical methodology may 

be found in the Appendices to this report. 

In extractive sampling a probe assembly and pump is used to extract gas from the exhaust of the 

source and transport the sample to the FTIR gas cell. The sampling apparatus is similar to that 

used for a single-component emissions monitor. The digitized infrared spectrum of the sample 

in the FTIR gas cell is measured and stored on a computer with a backup stored on a separate 

disk. A copy of the spectral data is included in this report. 

Pre and Post Test Evaluations 

Pre- and Post-test CTS (calibration transfer standard) spectra were gathered and 

evaluated. 

Pre: and Post-test NEA (Noise Equivalent Absorbance) and Background 

measurements were made for each source. Pre-Test QA Spiking was performed for 

hydrogen Chloride, at a similar source in accordance with 40CFR63 National 

Emission Standards For Hazardous Air Pollutants For Brick and Structural Clay 

Products Manufacturing published May 16, 2003, and is included in the Appendices. 

Western Environmental Services and Testing, Inc. 05-8018 9 
Acrne Brick Company 

Denton, TX 

Three independent spectra were gathered at the source prior to testing. Spike flow 

rate was 1 liter per minute as measured by a mass flow controller. An independent 

sample is one that is gathered after 5 cell volumes have passed through the cell 

(Section 8.6.2 Method 320). Because the cell volume was 2.728 liters and the 

system flow rate was at least 10 liters per minute the independent sample time was 

less than 1.36 minutes. Spiking was performed on a 2-minute integration interval 

and therefore the spike measurements were obtained with a minimum two-minute 

separation. 

Path length determination. Path length was determined prior to testing using 

chlorodifluoromethane in nitrogen. Using integrated area ratios against a reference 

standard concentration the path length was determined. A copy of the calibration 

certificates may be found in the Appendices. 

A complete system leak check was performed prior to testing. Results of the system 

leak check are provided on the field data sheets. 

The heated sample line was conditioned for over twelve hours in order to completely 

saturate the line and minimize line loss.

Mr. Meador has twenty-seven years experience in environmental consulting. He has 

managed more than 4,500 source emissions tests throughout the United States and 

Intemationally, providing emission evaluations for private and governmental 

agencies. He has taught several classes to clients in various locations for observing 

and performing Source Emissions Testing. Mr. Meador has directed the source 

sampling efforts for trial burns, ".including those of high-public profile incineration 

tests at US Depaxtment of Defense facilities under the Chemical Demilitarization 

Treaty. His expertise ranges throughout EPA as well as ASTM and NIOSH test 

methods, with numerous involvements in developing specialty sampling methods 

and procedures for clients. He has personally managed source test campaigns for 

projects in Southeast Asia and Africa. 

Based in Casper, Wyoming, Mr. Meador has managed more than thirty on-going 

ambient air networks, including ten radio-nuclide studies for individual uranium 

mining and milling facilities. Management of these projects included the significant 

interaction of analytical and fieldwork to demonstrate environmental compliance 

and baseline data to the Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality (WDEQ), 

the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission (NRC). Several of the projects involved surface and ground water 

sampling, topsoil and overburden sampling, ambient air gaseous monitoring, and 

meteorology as well as laboratory analyses, evaluation and reporting. Mr. Meador 

directed the laboratory (mobile and fixed) operations under strict QA/QC for an 
abandoned uranium mining operation in south-central Wyoming. 

Mr. Meador initiated and developed WEST's laboratory capabilities for direct onsite soil and water analyses in order to provide rapid analytical results on disturbed 

lands cleanup projects, and to enable engineering decisions to be made without 

cosily delay. 

Mr. Meador was responsible for the management of WEST's mobile laboratory 

operations and the analytical results generated by the laboratories in an Abandoned 

Mines Land (AML) reclamation project near Baggs (uranium) and Sundanee, 

Wyoming (bentonite). Mr. Meador has also served as liaison between regulatory 

agencies and industry, throughout his career. 

Mr. Meador provided management and technical expertise in the permitting and 

licensing (EPA, DEQ, and NRC) for Conoco, Inc.'s future uranium mill, mine, and 

separate in site mine near Pumpkin Buttes, Wyoming. This project consisted of the 

sampling and analyses (under EPA, DEQ and NRC regulations) of the following: 

topsoil and overburden, surface water (standing and event), ground water eased 

wells, air, radon-222, particulate, meteorology, vegetation, and wildlife. Sampling 

was provided at regular intervals with analyses including native, inorganic, and 

numerous radio-nuclide parameters. 

Mr. Meador provided professional consultation and marketing in the opening of an 

office in Dallas, Texas, which sends environmental teams throughout the Southwest. 

That office, now located in San Mareos, provides both ambient air and source 

emissions testing under the auspices of the Texas Commission on Environmental 

Quality. 

Education: 

Certification: 

Mr. Meador has extensive course work and research in fungal organisms. He spent 

over two years as a research assistant in the Biology Department at Southwest Texas 

State University (now Texas State University) culturing, identifying, and researching 

molds/fungi. His course work included human pathology in regard to fungi.
