PROJECT EXPERIENCE SECTION OF THE QSTI/QSTO

PROJECT EXPERIENCE SECTION OF THE QSTI APPLICATION - EXAMPLE  - For those persons who have taken the exam (or plan to) and are preparing their applications for submittal to the QSTI Review Committee, the project experience section may prove a little open-ended. What are “they” looking for? How much information should I include? Do “they” want a copy of a test report? First, definitely do not send in any test reports. The committee is not equipped to handle such confidential business information. What the committee does need is information about your experience and knowledge sufficient to demonstrate that you can conduct a test project successfully and produce reliable results. As a guideline for completing this element of the application, the QSTI Review Committee has provided two examples for your use. The components of these examples coincide with those outlined in the SES application form. Group II Application (example 1)  Project One  EPA Method 7  I led a project to measure NOx em

Air Pollution Control: A Design Approach 4th Edition

 A 25-year tradition of excellence is extended in the Fourth Edition of this highly regarded text. In clear, authoritative language, the authors discuss the philosophy and procedures for the design of air pollution control systems. Their objective is twofold: to present detailed information on air pollution and its control, and to provide formal design training for engineering students.

New to this edition is a comprehensive chapter on carbon dioxide control, perhaps the most critical emerging issue in the field. Emphasis is on methods to reduce carbon dioxide emissions and the technologies for carbon capture and sequestration. An expanded discussion of control technologies for coal-fired power plants includes details on the capture of NOx and mercury emissions. All chapters have been revised to reflect the most recent information on U.S. air quality trends and standards. Moreover, where available, equations for equipment cost estimation have been updated to the present time. Abundant illustrations clarify the concepts presented, while numerous examples and end-of-chapter problems reinforce the design principles and provide opportunities for students to enhance their problem-solving skills.

Not-for-sale instructor resource material available to college and university faculty only; contact publisher directly.

Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

"I loved the previous edition, and this edition is even better. The addition of the CO2 chapter is excellent." -- Marko Princevac, University of California, Riverside

"This is a classic textbook. I have used the second, third, and now the fourth editions over the past fifteen years. I like the detailed coverage of critical control technologies and its application to real-world solutions. Students prefer the textbook for its problem-solving approaches and rigorous worked examples." -- John Kuruvilla, University of North Texas

"One of the best books in air pollution." -- Shekar Viswanathan, San Diego State University

"This new edition is a timely publication of emerging topics such as CO2 control and indoor air quality." -- Chang-Yu Wu, University of Florida

"I liked the third edition, so I am very much pleased with the fourth. Inclusion of the chapter on carbon sequestration is quite beneficial. My thanks to the authors!" -- Stephen Zemba, Tufts University

    Sources of Air Pollution are four mobile sources, stationary sources,point sources andarea sources

     Sources of Air Pollution In discussions of air pollution sources, four terms are routinely used:  Mobile sources  Stationary sources  Point sources  Area sources  Mobile sources Mobile sources are generally related to transportation. Mobile sources are not included within the general parameters for fugitive emissions and, therefore, will be given no further consideration in this course.  Stationary sources Stationary sources define emission sources that are fixed and include all forms and types of manufacturing, chemical and petroleum processing, power generation, and small business facilities. Point sources A stationary point source refers to any place within a facility from which emissions are possible. For a given facility, a stack may be one point source. An emission leak within a process is also considered a point source. An automobile or a truck would represent a point source or mobile source. Area sources Area source refers to any one of several sources contributing to the air

    Dual Detectors FID and PID

    Dual Detectors The benefits of each individual detector are very clear: both the FID and the PID have their  advantages and disadvantages. However, with either detector alone, the number of organic  and inorganic vapors that one can detect is limited by the measurement capabilities of that  detector. With the TVA-1000B, users can obtain complete information about more organic and inorganic  vapors more quickly and easily than with single detector technology alone. Since both detectors may be displayed and logged simultaneously, the relative response of the  two detectors may give some clues about the identity of the compound being measured. For  instance, the PID does not respond to methane at all, but the FID responds very well. A high  FID reading with virtually no PID response might indicate the presence of methane. Consequently,  PIDs respond very well to some inorganic gases that FIDs cannot detect. A high PID  reading with no FID reading might suggest the presence of an i
