| Abstract |
Combustion of fuel oil and gas is a source of emissions to the atmosphere. This report details the techniques and results of a study to determine the extent of these emissions from combustion in oil refinery boilers and heaters in Los Angeles County. A total of 21 stacks were sampled during the field testing program. These stacks serve 14 heaters, 10 boilers, and one fume burner. Average emission factors per unit of fuel used were calculated for each contaminant for combustion of both oil and gas. (Author Modified Abstract) |
