How to Run EPA Method 10 | Continuous CO Emission Testing
Learn the complete technical workflow for US EPA Method 10 (Determination of Carbon Monoxide Emissions from Stationary Sources using Instrumental Analyzers).
While Method 10 permits both integrated sample bag collection and continuous instrumental setups, modern source evaluation relies heavily on real-time NDIR (Non-Dispersive Infrared) or similar analytical technologies. In this video, we break down the hardware configuration, sample conditioning adjustments (such as moisture and CO2 interference removal), and the critical QA/QC performance metrics required by Method 7E that you must satisfy to validate your stack test runs. Key Equipment & Specifications Highlighted: • Carbon Monoxide Analyzer (NDIR or Gas Chromatography) • Interference Removal (Silica Gel & Ascarite/CO2 Traps) • Moisture Removal System (Air-Cooled Condenser) • EPA Protocol 1 Calibration Gases (Zero, Mid, High Spans) Master US EPA Method 10 for continuous Carbon Monoxide (CO) emissions testing! This step-by-step field guide breaks down instrumental analyzer setups, mandatory calibration error limits, system bias checks, and calculations for compliance and QSTI prep.
