Creator:: Kowalczyk, John F.
Abstract:: A study was conducted to determine what effects the type of pollutants, storage conditions, storage time, and method of sample conditioning have on the reported weight of an air pollutant collected by filtration. Samples were collected from a refuse dump, an arc furnace smelting nickel ore, and a rotary kiln...

Creator:: Hudson, Arthur E.
Abstract:: An emmission sampling system was developed to measure pollutants emitted from a mobile agricultural incinerator developed at Oregon State University. The system was designed to collect a particulate sample on an 8" x 10" fiber glass filter and collect a gaseous sample in a plastic bag. Pollutants measured were particulates...

Creator:: Shigehara, Roger T.
Abstract:: A source test was conducted to determine the particulate and the total gaseous hydrocarbon emissions from a gas heated veneer dryer. Samples were taken on eight separate days from the exhaust stacks while the dryer was processing Douglas fir veneer. Of the eight days, three was used to determine the...

Creator:: Nelson, William George
Abstract:: An integrating nephelometer was set up at the Eugene Airport which is located five miles north of Eugene, Oregon, on Highway 99 West. Continuous atmospheric scattering coefficient readings were obtained from July 1, 1969, to August 28, 1969. These data are converted to meteorological range through the use of the...

Creator:: Augustine, Frank Edward
Abstract:: A high volume sampling system, employing Nuclepore filters and designed for sampling particulate in the plumes from industrial sources using a light aircraft, is described. The effluent of kraft paper mills was sampled using this system and then analyzed by electron microscopy. Size distributions of particles were obtained at several...

Creator:: Addicott, Donald James
Abstract:: Oxides of nitrogen are a concern as effluents to atmospheres because they participate in photochemical reactions which produce smog, because they attenuate sunlight which gives the atmosphere a reddish brown cast, and because of their toxic properties and the health hazards associated with the photochemical products they produce. Oxides of...

Full Text:: to eliminate pulsations in the intake air flow, thus allowing easier measurement of the fresh air

Creator:: Anderson, Bruce Conrad
Abstract:: The study of aldehydes in diesel exhaust is important because of their relationship to diesel odor, to air pollution, and to the development of a theory of combustion. Therefore, a study is made of the low order aliphatic aldehydes using gas chromatography in conjunction with standard wet chemical tests. The...

Creator:: Bessey, Eric G.
Abstract:: Air compressors are a significant industrial energy user and therefore a prime target for industrial energy audits. The project goals were to develop a software tool, AIRMaster, develop a methodology for performing compressed air system audits, and conduct field audits to refine the methodology and assess savings potential from six...
