Fugitive Air Emissions Monitoring Services
SOURCE environmental consultants with engineering degrees and other specialists perform consulting services related to fugitive air emission monitoring. These services include establishing plant monitoring programs utilizing piping and instrumentation drawings (P&ID) or in-plant line tracing of those components that require monitoring, preparing plant monitoring plans, performing quality assurance of monitoring procedures and defining report formats, as well as assisting clients during agency audits and compliance meetings.
In-plant fugitive emissions monitoring services are provided by the Emissions Control Services (ECS) branch of TEAM. This branch is the nation`s leader in plant emissions identification, control, monitoring and maintenance. The ECS branch is also very active in developing plant specific emission factors for leaking equipment components by performing "bagging studies" at many chemical plants. These studies typically result in significantly lower reported emissions from the chemical plants than would be reported using standard emission factors.
