Synopsis

As part of regulatory programs such as the new Clean Air Act, industries that emit pollutants from stationary sources are required to monitor these emissions and to keep them within specified limits. A complete guide to the field of Continuous Emission Monitoring (CEM), this guide addresses all current technologies and practices in the monitoring of pollutants emitted from industrial stacks.

About this title

From the Inside Flap

Environmental Engineering
Completely revised and updated,
The foremost reference on continuous emission monitoring
Air pollution control agencies are incorporating continuous emission monitoring (CEM) systems in their increasingly rigorous regulatory programs. Once primarily used to measure the performance of air control monitoring devices, today CEM systems are increasingly applied in environmental regulatory programs. More recently, they have been applied to establish emission "allowances" in the U.S. acid rain control program. These stringent regulations have led to significant developments in CEM technology and application.
