3.5.2.1
Constant Flow Tests
**************************************************************************
NOTE: This procedure is appropriate for a system
without blowers or with a single constant speed
blower.
**************************************************************************
Each unit shall be operated at a constant flow rate of approximately
[_____] cubic meters per second cubic feet per second (actual) for the
capacity test. Samples shall be taken of the influent and effluent at [[1]
[8] hour] [1 day] [1 week] intervals for analysis.
3.5.2.2
Variable Flow Tests
**************************************************************************
NOTE: This procedure is appropriate for a system
with variable speed blowers regulated by a pressure
controller.
**************************************************************************
Each unit shall be operated at flow rates varying between [_____] and
[_____] cubic meters per second [_____] and [_____] cubic feet per second
(actual). Samples shall be taken of the influent and effluent at the high
flow rate and [1 intermediate rate] [[2] [3] [_____] intermediate rates]
for analysis.
3.5.2.3
Cyclic Flow Tests
**************************************************************************
NOTE: This procedure is appropriate for a system
with constant speed blowers operated by on/off
control.
**************************************************************************
flow rate of approximately [_____] cubic meters per second cubic feet per
second (actual)] [through the complete range of flows]. Samples shall be
taken of the influent and effluent at the beginning and end of each cycle
and at [1 intermediate time] [[2] [3] [_____] intermediate times] for
analysis.
3.5.3
Sampling and Analyses
**************************************************************************
NOTE: Verify that analyses are included in
Paragraph Process Gas and Particulate Emission
Sample Methods of Section 01450A CHEMICAL DATA
QUALITY CONTROL.
**************************************************************************
Samples of influent and effluent off-gas shall be collected and analyzed
for the parameters listed in Paragraph Off-Gas Composition in accordance
with the Sampling and Analysis Plan developed to conform with Section 01450A
CHEMICAL DATA QUALITY CONTROL.
3.5.4
Test Logs
A complete log of each test shall be made, giving the following data:
