Abstract

Entropy Environmentalists, Inc. has performed a number of field and laboratory studies using a FTIR spectrometer for the analysis of gas phase samples and sample streams. The field studies, undertaken in conjunction with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), included several weeks of continuous monitoring at a hazardous waste incinerator, a sewage sludge incinerator, and a coal-fired boiler. Results of the analyses of both cold and hot samples, using several types of infrared absorption cells, will be discussed and compared to the results of other continuous monitoring systems.
