Sharing our knowledge of stack emissions monitoring

Our team has written a series of training documents that encompass all the basic checks and calculations to conduct compliant and accurate stack emissions testing. The series includes what equipment is required, testing methods that can be used, and detailed explanations of how calculations are performed in air emissions monitoring. The guides were written to aid Air Quality Officers and our clients to navigate this niche field of stack emissions testing. Our goal through this series is to help technical and non-technical readers understand the ins and outs of legitimate emissions testing. We want to be a part of helping others clean up our air!
