8 New Method Summary Beam Configuration: OP-FTIR (or other OP method) multiple beams to determine vertical and horizontal gradients Optimization algorithms to directly reconstruct the mass equivalent plume downwind from the source No need for tracer release or inverse dispersion modeling approach for plume characterization Plane-integrated concentration x wind speed = emission flux

9 Example: Oxford NC Test

10 Radial Scanning

17 Controlled Validation Design Soaker hose in ‘H’ pattern to simulate area source Point release to simulate a “hot spot” Ethylene (area), N 2 O test gas (point) Plane-integrated OP-FTIR downwind Radial scanning OP-FTIR over the source Met station and optical anemometer for wind Self-calibrated Gilson Tapered-tube flowmeter Weigh the gas cylinder before and after a 1-hour run to confirm the flowmeter

18 Controlled Validation Design

19 Demonstration Actual area sources at DoD installations will be measured and protocols refined Examples: WWTP, Landfills, Flightline Operations Methodology and actual costs to be documented

20 Technology Transfer Published EPA Method Optimization algorithms will be licensed to equipment manufacturers Optimization algorithms will be licensed to A&E firms providing base support services

21 Summary New OP multiple beam method can provide accurate quantification of area sources, with lower cost and complexity than conventional methods. This project will validate/demonstrate this method. This demonstration is strongly supported by the EPA. The project objective is to publish a standard protocol for measuring nonpoint sources. The OP multiple-beam method can become a powerful tool for DoD and industrial facility managers to solve P2 and compliance problems.
