Abstract |
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has promulgated New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) and National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP's) for several categories of sources that emit volatile organic compounds (VOC's) and that require monitoring with portable detection instruments. The manual presents information on the principles of operation of currently available portable monitors and the field inspection techniques for the monitor's safe use in both screening and compliance determinations. The manual is intended to be used by State and local agencies. The level of the inspection performed is often determined by the compliance history of the source and the regulatory requirements. The EPA has published Reference Method 21 to provide a technical method to test for leaks from these sources. Method 21 allows the user to select one of several instruments available on the market if they meet the specifications and performance requirements, discussed in Section 2. A summary of the published specifications of many of the portable VOC monitors is presented in the manual. |
