Questions and Answers

Which gas component is specifically measured in the flue gas analysis to determine combustion efficiency?

  • Carbon dioxide (CO2)
  • Oxygen (O2) (correct)
  • Carbon monoxide (CO)
  • Nitrogen (N2)

What is the primary purpose of stack emissions monitoring?

  • To analyze the products of combustion in the flue gas
  • To measure the various individual components of the flue gas
  • To determine the efficiency of the combustion process
  • To monitor the components emitted to atmosphere above certain limits (correct)

How are flue gas constituents typically listed?

  • By mole fraction
  • By parts per million (ppm)
  • By percent weight
  • By percent volume (correct)
