Full Description

In 1997, the USEPA promulgated new ambient air standards for particulate matter smaller than 2.5 micrometers in diameter (PM2.5). Source emissions data are needed to assess the contribution of petroleum industry combustion sources to ambient PM2.5 concentrations. This report presents particulate measurement results from a 114 million British thermal unit (MMBtu) per hour gas-fired refinery process heater. The particulate stack measurements were made using both a dilution tunnel research test method and traditional EPA sampling methods.
