Course Name
PERM247 - Control of Gaseous Emissions (Formerly APTI 415)
Who Should Attend
This basic course is designed for individuals within a regulatory agency whose role is to evaluate gaseous emission sources for permitting and determine the ongoing compliance status of such emission sources. This class is intended for new permit and compliance engineers and scientists who are responsible for permitting and compliance and SIP planning activities.
Leaning Objectives
Those completing this course will gain a basic understanding of the different types and the operating characteristics of control devices that are available for specific gaseous emission sources. Attendees will be able to perform regulatory reviews involving the following elements of gaseous emissions and control:
• Basic concepts of gas behavior
• Sources of gaseous contaminants
• Emission testing and monitoring
• Carbon bed adsorbers
• Thermal incinerators (or oxidizers)
• Catalytic incinerators
• Absorbers
• Condensers
• Hood and fan effect on control systems
• Basic concepts of gas behavior
• Sources of gaseous contaminants
• Emission testing and monitoring
• Carbon bed adsorbers
• Thermal incinerators (or oxidizers)
• Catalytic incinerators
• Absorbers
• Condensers
• Hood and fan effect on control systems
Description
This course presents fundamental operating principles of gaseous control systems used at air pollution control sources. Introductory material concerning gas stream characteristics and sources of gaseous contaminants is provided as a basis for this course. This course provides a foundation for later courses concerning source sampling, inspection, and permit review.
