| Emission
inventories are required for approval/permit applications
and for such initiatives as the National Pollutant
Release Inventory (NPRI) in Canada, Regulation
127 in Ontario and the Toxics Release Inventory
(TRI) in the United States.
There is a danger in “over-reporting”
and “under-reporting” emissions from
a source. Over-reporting can bring on unnecessary
attention to the facility from not only regulatory
agencies but community groups. Published emission
factors are not always representative of a particular
source and may require a monitoring/sampling campaign
to effectively identify and quantify its constituents.
Emissions testing can be valuable in characterizing
discharges from a new process or modifications
to an existing process. Several projects have
involved confirming an emission model for a particular
process or developing a site-specific emission
factor. Testing can be carried out on both sides
of a pollution control device to determine the
pollutant removal efficiency.
