Evaluation Of Arrayed-Field Concentration Measurements And U. S. Epa-Regulatory Models For The Determination Of Mixed-Source Particulate Matter Emissions, Derek Jones Dec 2008

Evaluation Of Arrayed-Field Concentration Measurements And U. S. Epa-Regulatory Models For The Determination Of Mixed-Source Particulate Matter Emissions, Derek Jones

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

With the continued population growth and the blurring of the urban and rural interface, air quality impacts associated with agricultural particle-producing processes are becoming increasingly important. There is a lack of emission rate data from these source types and no prescribed measurement technique available to the agricultural and regulatory communities. One technique that has shown promise is combining field measurements with inverse modeling. This approach was used herein to examine particulate emissions from an almond harvesting operation, a cotton ginning facility, and comparative emissions from conservation versus conventional tillage practices. EPAapproved models ISCST3 and AERMOD were used with AirMetrics samplers. …
