Description:
The EPA Office of Air Quality Planning and Standards (OAQPS) and the Office of Solid Waste (OSW) are gathering information to control emissions from hazardous waste treatment, storage, and disposal facilities (TSDFs). he EPA Risk Reduction Engineering Laboratory (RREL) provided technical support to OAQPS in gathering the necessary data on atmospheric emissions. he purpose of this work was to collect data to determine emissions for volatile and semivolatile organic compounds from a real waste matrix using a bench-scale "wind tunnel" apparatus. missions resulting from the stabilization of waste matrix were characterized and quantified using EPA and National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH)-approved analytical methods and procedures.
