Weekly Topic: February 3, 2016 – Location of installation for Continuous Emission Monitoring Systems (CEMS)
Thread Content
The last agenda item before the Spring Festival. Where is the most suitable location for an online flue gas monitor for sulfur recovery? Is there any difference in this setting for single-series and dual-series exhaust gases?
CEMS is an important data source for local environmental agencies to monitor company emissions; it is generally installed on chimneys, and in the case of dual-series systems, only one unit is installed on the chimney. And it is sent directly to the Environmental Protection Agency’s network; they are only concerned with whether your total emissions exceed the limits, not with the details of the equipment used.
On a single-series smoke stack. If there are two series and they are placed only on the chimney, how can it be determined which series has the problem if it is not up to standard? Of course, it’s also impractical to have two watches in a dual-series setup.
