Stack emissions control

Emissions from coal generating stations and mine sites operating under controlled circumstances (using filters, scrubbers, chimney stacks or other discharge channels), must satisfy certain environmental limits and concentrations. SGS conducts air measurements according to the highest quality standards.  Our expertise includes:

• Determining of flue gas parameters (O2, CO, NxOy, SO2, CxHy, VOC, CO2).
• Calibration and certification of continuous on-line measuring equipment.
• Measuring emissions of inorganic components (chlorine, HCl, HF, metal, acid vapors).
• Measuring emissions of organic components (dioxins, furans, solvents, PAH).
• Measuring emissions (air pollution at population level).
• Measuring dust particles (total dust and particle size distribution).
• Measuring moisture level, flow rate and temperature.
• Calculating dispersion (according to various international models).
• Measuring odor.
• Monitoring fugitive emissions.

SGS also offers technical advice relating to emission-reducing techniques.
