Download or read book Chemical Methods for the Measurement of Nonregulated Diesel Emissions written by Emissions Systems Forum Committee and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This SAE Recommended Practice encompasses analytical proceduresfor measuring nonregulated diesel exhaust emissions. Methods arerecommended for the measurement of aldehydes and carbonylcompounds, sulfates and the characterization of diesel exhaustparticulates. Informational methods are presented for themeasurement of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) in dieselexhaust particulate samples. The procedures are based on currentproven chemical and engineering practices. However, it should benoted that the procedures are subject to change to keep pace withestablished experience and technology.The procedures are intended for use in the collection, analysis,and characterization of emissions from diesel engines. They are tobe used as a guide in standardizing practices so that the resultsfrom various sources can be compared with some degree of accuracy.The specific purpose of each chemical method is presented at thebeginning of each method section.
