Appendix K Sorbent Traps for "Total"/ "Speciated"
Mercury Testing
On March 15, 2005, EPA issued the Clean Air Mercury Rule (CAMR)
to reduce and cap mercury emissions from coal-fired Power Plants.
The CFR 40, part 75 - Continuous Emissions Monitoring outlined
as Appendix K entitled “ Quality Assurance and Operating
Procedures For Sorbent Trap Monitoring Systems” enable Power
Plants to use a low cost alternative to CEMM’s which have
much higher capital cost, installation/certification and maintenance
cost. Use of Sorbent Traps with the Direct analysis by Thermal
Method is allowed as a compliance reporting procedure by these
regulations.
Mercury Emissions Testing Traps and portable Direct Sorbent
Trap analyzer available from Ohio Lumex satisfy the strict QA/QC
procedures outlined in the method. We guarantee the test results.
