Reference Method for Source Testing: Quantification of Carbon Dioxide Releases by Continuous Emission Monitoring Systems from Thermal Power Generation

| Previous | TOC | Next |

Section 1. Applicability

This reference method details the CEM procedures for quantifying carbon dioxide (CO₂) releases from thermal EGUs and is based on the direct measurement of either wet or dry CO₂ or oxygen (O₂) concentration and stack gas flow rate, where applicable, as set out in Section 7.

The CEM system for carbon dioxide may be part of a larger existing CEM system for measuring other pollutants such as sulphur dioxide (SO₂) and nitrogen oxides (NO_x).
