What is PD CEN/TS 17286 about?
PD CEN/TS 17286 is an international standard that covers the features of stationary source emissions.
PD CEN/TS 17286 specifies the performance characteristics to evaluate the acceptability of sorbent trap monitoring systems used to monitor the total vapor-phase mercury (Hg) emissions in stationary source flue gas streams. These monitoring systems involve continuous repetitive in-flue sampling using paired sorbent traps with subsequent analysis of the time-integrated samples.
PD CEN/TS 17286 is suitable for both short-term (periodic) measurements and long-term (continuous) monitoring using sorbent traps. The operator of the industrial installation is responsible for the correct calibration, maintenance, and operation of this long-term sampling system.
PD CEN/TS 17286 discusses measuring equipment, sorbent trap monitoring system equipment specifications, monitoring system, moisture removal device, vacuum pump, total sample volume measurement, sample flow rate meter, and controller, temperature sensor, absolute pressure sensor, automatic con...
