Abstract
A detailed method write-up describing the triethanolamine (TEA) manual procedure for measurement of nitrogen dioxide in ambient air was developed. The method involves sampling for 24 hours with a fritted bubbler immersed in 0.1N TEA collecting solution. The method was evaluated to determine its usefulness for measuring nitrogen dioxide in anbient air. This involved a review of the procedure as developed and subsequent laboratory experiments to better define some obscure points in the procedure. The constancy of the method's collection efficiency, the addition of n-butanol to enhance the collection efficiency and the need to use fritted bubblers as gas dispersers to assure high collection efficiency were the main points investigated in these experiments.
