The Mercury Measurement Leader
Speciated Mercury Testing, Ontario-Hydro, Mercury CEMS, 40CFR75 Appendix K Monitoring Systems
“CleanAir has performed thousands of mercury tests on municipal and hazardous waste fired boilers over the last 20 years and developed a detailed understanding of the impact that fuel and ash chemistry, boiler type, and emission control technologies have on mercury emissions. We are transferring this expertise to Utilities in order to deliver high-quality results.” Dr. Volker Schmid |

The challenges facing Utilities to comply with the Clean Air Mercury Rule (CAMR) will require mercury testing with the lowest attainable uncertainty.
CleanAir is addressing this challenge by advancing QA/QC measures to include the development of sample spiking procedures, the use of paired-sampling trains to assess the sampling and analytical uncertainty, and minimizing interferences and biases by passivating our sampling equipment using Siltek®/Sulfinert® coatings.
Others are claiming that it will be nearly impossible to pass a mercury CEMS relative accuracy test audit without the cost of an onsite laboratory for the Ontario Hydro analysis. Through proper QA/QC measures, these tests can be performed successfully without the need for an expensive onsite lab.

Our teams of trained personnel and state-of-the-art equipment are ready to help you in all facets of mercury testing and consulting. We can determine the mercury speciation over single air pollution control devices or provide compliance strategy planning using mercury balances across entire facilities. With our continuous mercury CEMS or semi-continuous sorbent-based monitoring systems, we can study the long-term effects of fuel variability and control equipment performance.
