Application of Sensor Technology to Aerial Emission Sampling NATIONAL CENTER FOR ATMOSPHERIC RESEARCH Application of Sensor Technology to Aerial Emission Sampling Brian Gullett U.S. ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY Bill Mitchell1, Xiaochi Zhou2, Johanna Aurell3 1U.S. ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY, OFFICE OF RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT 2DUKE UNIVERSITY, STUDENT SERVICE CONTRACTOR, U.S. EPA 3UNIVERSITY OF DAYTON RESEARCH INSTITUTE JULY 17, 2014 Workshop: “Applications of UAS to Land and Natural Resource Management,” Argonne National Laboratory

EPA/ORD Aerial Emission Sampling PURPOSE: Quantification of emissions from open area sources Aerostat-lofted emission sampling system Developed in 2010 to sample open burning and open detonation of military ordnance Applied to 11 field campaigns 3 OB/OD measurements at Tooele Depot, UT At-sea measurements of burning BP oil, Gulf 4 prescribed forest fires at Eglin AFB, Camp Lejeune, Ft. Jackson Open burning of wastes (“burn pit” simulation) for USAF Agricultural field burning in ID and WA OB/OD for Canadian Department of Defence, Saskatchewan Selected for Bagram Air Base burn pit measurements 4/22/2017 U.S. Environmental Protection Agency

U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Sampling Campaigns 4/22/2017 U.S. Environmental Protection Agency

Maneuverability of Aerostat and Flyer Shipboard winch ATV with winch ATVs with winches Single or double Spectra tethers on electric, remote control winches The use of tethers and ATVs can create challenges for positioning (e.g., trees) and equipment (e.g., shrapnel) as well as limit plume residence time and, hence, the ability to collect sufficient sample.

We can solve the payload issues: EPA/ORD is testing and verifying the performance of commercial gas sensors. These lightweight sensors can replace larger emission monitors for certain applications. We are also developing miniature samplers. We have produced a replacement for the Flyer instrument package… 4/22/2017 U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
