Abstract |
This volume of the report is a compendium of detailed emission and test data from field tests of a crude-oil process heater and laboratory analyses of collected samples. The process heater, burning a combination of oil and refinery gas, was tested in two operating modes: baseline (normal operation) and with staged combustion air for NOx reduction. The test data include preliminary equipment calibration, detailed heater operation, and complete flue gas emission measurement results. Organic compound category information was obtained using infrared spectrometry (IR) with specific quantitation of the semi-volatile organic priority pollutants using gas chromatography with mass spectrometry (GC/MC). Fractions were determined using liquid chromatography separation of organic extracts with total organic and IR and low resolution mass spectrometry (LRMS). Trace elements were determined by spark source mass spectrometry (SSMS) and atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS). Biological assays of organic sample extracts were also performed. |
