EMC: Continuous Emission Monitoring Systems | US EPA
WEBAug 25, 2024 · A continuous emission monitoring system (CEMS) is the total equipment necessary for the determination of a gas or particulate matter concentration or emission rate using pollutant analyzer measurements and a conversion equation, graph, or computer program to produce results in units of the applicable emission limitation or standard.
Burning Clear: Navigating the New Flare Guidelines (OOOOb …
WEBApr 1, 2024 · The EPA’s new rules, NSPS OOOOb and EG OOOOc, aim to reduce methane (CH4) and volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions from the onshore oil and natural gas (O&G) industry. This blog post specifically examines the compliance requirements for flares used to meet these emission limits.
WEBMeasurement of GHG emissions directly at the point of release, e.g. a Continuous Emissions Monitoring System (CEMS) that measure the exhaust gas flow rate and the concentration of the GHG emissions at an exhaust stack.
40 CFR 63.671 -- Requirements for flare monitoring systems.
WEBThe CPMS monitoring plan must contain the information listed in paragraphs (b) (1) through (5) of this section. (1) Identification of the specific flare being monitored and the flare type (air-assisted only, steam-assisted only, air- and steam-assisted, pressure-assisted, or non-assisted).
Proposed Changes to EPA GHG Reporting Rules Affecting Flares …
WEBAug 17, 2023 · Cimarron’s flare and enclosed combustion devices using our Sytelink360™ system can continuously monitor the pilot flame and record flow rate data from the flare meter. Also, the system can track, store and report hours that a pilot flame was present for an ECD and flare system.

A Flare System Digital Twin for CO2e Emissions Inference
WEB1 day ago · The flare digital twin will estimate the CO 2 e produced from the combustion of hydrocarbons released into the flare; if the gas contains sulfur, SO 2 emissions are also quantified, and flare efficiency is calculated. The digital twin can run on-premise or cloud-based, and two additional features can be added: a forecasting tool and a ...
Using Continuous Monitoring To Detect Incomplete Combustion …
WEBSep 16, 2024 · Case Study: Using Qube Sensors To Identify Incomplete Combustion at a Customer’s Site . Background: Qube deployed continuous-monitoring devices with CH 4 and CO sensors throughout a customer’s natural gas processing facility. The Qube sensors detected elevated emissions—specifically, increased CO concentrations—and reported this data to the customer via Qube’s dashboard.
Stay atop the EPA’s new flare-monitoring regulations
WEBSep 13, 2018 · The new flare rule sets flare operating limits, requires a flare management plan (FMP), and requires a continuous parameter monitoring system (CPMS). It also covers pilot flame monitoring, visible emissions and flare tip velocity, which were also in earlier versions of 40 CFR 63.
