Thoma, E. Next Generation Emission Measurements (NGEM) and Fenceline MonitoringDiscussion with NC DEQ, August 23, 2022. EPA ORD and NC DEQ Meeting, RTP, NC, August 23, 2022.
Impact/Purpose:
This is a presention on next generation emission measurments (NGEM) provided to NC DEQ on August 23, 2022. The slides may become pubilc post meeting.
Description:
Energy production operations, refineries, chemical plants, and other industries and waste facilities can emit air pollutants and odorous compounds from fugitive leaks, process malfunctions, and area sources that are hard to detect and manage. From the shared perspective of industries, regulators, and communities, improved understanding of these emissions can yield many benefits such as safer working environments, cost savings through reduced product loss, lower airshed impacts, and improved community relations. Under its next generation emissions measurement (NGEM) program, ORD CEMM is working with a range of partners to develop and test NGEM tools that can assist facilities in detection and management of source emissions.
