| A Field Study Using Open-Path FTIR Spectroscopy to Measure and Map Air Emissions from Volume Sources |
| Piper, A.R.; L.A. Todd; K. Mottus. Field Analytical Chemistry and Technology, Vol 3 No 2, p 69-79, 1999 |
In this study, open-path Fourier transform infrared (OP-FTIR) spectrometer measurements and point samplers were used to evaluate two short-term refined Gaussian dispersion models for predicting the fate of volume source emissions. These data also were used for a pilot Environmental CAT scanning system using two scanning OP-FTIR spectrometers and eight retroreflectors. An environmental CAT scanning system processes a network of intersection OP-FTIR spectrometers using a tomographic reconstruction algorithm that converts real-time measurements to two-dimensional chemical concentration maps of an area. As described in this paper, the authors evaluated the Industrial Source Complex-Short Term (version 3) (ISCST) model and the American Meteorological Society/Environmental Protection Agency Regulatory Model Improvement Committee (AERMOD) model. |
