# Procedures The particulate emission rates were determined using EPA Methods 1-5, CFR Title 40, Part 60, Appendix A. The calibration and quality assurance procedures of EPA CFR 40 Part 60 Appendix A for all methods, and the "Quality Assurance Handbook for Air Pollution Measurement System" Volume Ill Stationary Source-Specific Methods were followed throughout the duration of the field and laboratory testing. The most current revision revised as of July 1, 2004, of each method {as described in the Federal Register) was used. 

## Stack Gas Volumetric Flow The velocity of the gas stream was determined according to EPA Reference Method 1 and 2 by reading the instantaneous velocity head with an inclined manometer at each sampling point with a calibrated S-type pitot tube attached adjacent to the sample nozzle. The stack pressure was measured with the static side of an S-type pitot tube. A calibrated pyrometer was used to measure stack temperature at each sampling point. The stack was tested for cyclonic flow according to EPA Reference Method 1. 

## Stack Gas Molecular Weight The carbon dioxide and oxygen concentrations were determined using EPA Reference Method 3 (Fyrite Method). A sample of the flue gas was extracted from the gas stream during each test. These samples were analyzed with a Fyrite gas analyzer. The molecular weight of the gas was calculated using the moisture, oxygen and carbon dioxide content and the measured stack gas temperature. 

## Moisture Content The moisture content used for calculating the gas stream flow rate was determined by measuring the amount of condensed moisture in the stainless steel condenser and silica gel impinger in the sampling train as described in EPA Reference Method 4 at the completion of each test.

## The moisture collection system consists of four glass impingers. The first two impingers were charged with 100 ml each, the third empty, with the fourth charged with silica gel. Ice is placed around the impingers to maintain a temperature <68° F. The outlet temperature of the condenser is monitored and recorded throughout the duration of the testing to verify the temperature is below <68° F. Particulate Determination 

## The particulate sample train consists of a heated stainless steel sample probe and liner equipped with a S-type Pitot tube and thermocouple. The probe is attached to a sample module consisting of a heated filter compartment which houses the in-line filter holder equipped with a pre-weighed glass fiber filter for the collection of the particulate and impingers for determining condensed moisture. The sample module is connected to a control module by means of an umbilical cord. The control module consist of a dry gas meter, calibrated orifice, leak free pump, two inclined manometers, temperature controllers for the heated filter compartment and probe and a thermocouple indicator to monitor the required temperatures during the testing. Particulate samples are collected as follows: The sample gas is drawn through the sampling probe isokinetically and passed through a 3-inch Whatman glass fiber filter where particulates are removed. The sample gas is then passed through the umbilical cord to an ice-cooled condenser and desiccant-packed column, which absorbs any remaining moisture. The sample gas then passes through a vacuum pump followed by a dry gas meter. The dry gas meter integrates the sample gas flow throughout the duration of the test. A calibrated orifice attached to the outlet of the dry gas meter provides real time flow rate data. A representative particulate sample is acquired by sampling for equal periods of time at the centroid of a number of equal area regions in the exhaust stack. The sampling rate is adjusted at each test point maintaining an isokinetic sampling condition. After the sampling is complete, the filter is removed and placed in a storage container for shipment back to the laboratory for analysis. The nozzle, probe liner and inlet side of the filter holder are quantively washed with a reagent grade acetone and stored in a marked and sealed container. The samples are transferred back to the laboratory were 9 I··

## they are logged in and analyzed. The volume of acetone rinse is noted and transferred to a tarred fleaker and evaporated off at 97-105 °F. This temperature is used to prevent condensation of atmospheric moisture due to the cooling effects induced by the evaporating acetone. The acetone-free sample is placed in an oven and dried at 105 °C for thirty minutes and then placed in a desiccator. After the sample has desiccated for twenty-four hours the sample is weighed to the nearest 0.1 mg. The filter sample is transferred to the original petri dish in which the original weight was obtained and placed in a drying oven for 2 hours at 105 °C. The filter and petri dish are then placed in a desiccator. After the filter and petri dish have desiccated for twenty-four hours the sample is weighed to the nearest 0.1 mg. Visual examination of the samples are made to determine if any unusual characteristics of the samples are observed. The weight of the acetone rinse is corrected for the weight of the acetone blank.
