Determination
of Carbon Monoxide Emissions from Stationary Sources – USEPA
Method 10B USEPA Method 10B is used for the determination of carbon monoxide (CO) emissions at petroleum refineries and from other sources when specified in an applicable subpart of the regulations. An integrated gas sample is extracted from the sampling point, passed through a conditioning system to remove interferences, such as carbon dioxide (CO2) and organics, and collected in a Tedlar bag. Most of the CO2 is removed from the sample by the alkaline permanganate conditioning system; any residual CO2 and organics are separated from the CO by GC and catalytically reduced to methane (CH4), which is determined by flame ionization detection (FID). The analytical portion of this method is identical to applicable sections in USEPA Method 25 detailing CO measurement. |
