Stationary source emissions - Determination of PM10/PM2,5 mass concentration in flue gas - Measurement at low concentrations by use of impactors (ISO 23210:2009)

ISO 23210:2009 specifies a standard reference method for the determination of PM10 and PM2,5 mass concentrations at stationary emission sources by use of two-stage impactors. The measurement method is especially suitable for measurements of mass concentrations below 40 mg/m3 as half-hourly averages in standard conditions (273 K, 1 013 hPa, dry gas). It is an acceptable method for the measurement in the flue gas of different installations, such as cement and steel production plants, as well as combustion processes.
ISO 23210:2009 is not applicable to the sampling of flue gases that are saturated with water vapour.
ISO 23210:2009 is not applicable where the majority of the particles are likely to exceed PM10, for example, in the case of raw gases or plant operating failures.
ISO 23210:2009 cannot be used for the determination of the total mass concentration of dust.
ISO 23210:2009 describes the design, use and theory of round-nozzle impactors. It does not exclude other types of impactors, provided these systems meet the performance criteria specified in ISO 23210:2009 in a validation of the impactor performed by an independent testing laboratory.

Emissionen aus stationären Quellen - Ermittlung der Massenkonzentration von PM10/PM2,5 im Abgas - Messung bei niedrigen Konzentrationen mit Impaktoren (ISO 23210:2009)

Diese Internationale Norm legt ein Standardreferenzmessverfahren zur Ermittlung der PM10- und PM2,5-
Massenkonzentrationen an geführten stationären Quellen mit Hilfe eines zweistufigen Impaktors fest. Das
Messverfahren ist insbesondere zur Messung von Massenkonzentrationen unterhalb von 50 mg/m3 auf der
Basis von Halbstundenmittelwerten und im Normzustand (273 K, 1 013 hPa, trockenes Gas) geeignet. Es hat
sich bei der Messung in Abgasen unterschiedlicher Anlagen bewährt, beispielsweise bei Anlagen zur
Herstellung von Zement und Stahl sowie bei Verbrennungsprozessen.
Diese Internationale Norm ist nicht anwendbar bei mit Wasserdampf gesättigten Abgasen.
Diese Internationale Norm ist nicht anwendbar, wenn die Mehrzahl der Partikel offensichtlich größer als PM10
ist, beispielsweise bei Rohgasmessungen oder Betriebsstörungen der Anlage.
ANMERKUNG 1 Messungen bei Staubkonzentrationen oberhalb von 50 mg/m3 als Halbstundenmittelwert im Normzustand
(273 K, 1 013 hPa, trockenes Gas) können zu einer Überladung der Sammelplatten und des Endfilters und auch
zu kürzeren Sammelzeiten führen.
ANMERKUNG 2 Die Sammelplatten und Endfilter können für weitere chemische Analysen verwendet werden.
Diese Internationale Norm kann nicht zur Ermittlung der Gesamtstaubmassenkonzentration herangezogen
werden.
ANMERKUNG 3 Zur Beurteilung der Daten kann es sinnvoll sein, zeitgleich zu den PM10- und PM2,5-Messungen auch
Gesamtstaubmessungen durchzuführen.
Diese Internationale Norm beschreibt die Gestaltung, Verwendung und Theorie von Runddüsenimpaktoren.
Die Verwendung anderer Impaktortypen wird nicht ausgeschlossen, soweit die Einhaltung der in dieser
Internationalen Norm festgelegten Mindestanforderungen durch diese Systeme im Rahmen einer Validierung
des Impaktors, die durch ein unabhängiges Prüflaboratorium durchgeführt wird, nachgewiesen wird.

Émissions de sources fixes - Détermination de la concentration en masse de PM10/PM2,5 dans les effluents gazeux - Mesurage à des faibles concentrations au moyen d'impacteurs (ISO 23210:2009)

L'ISO 23210:2009 spécifie une méthode de référence permettant de déterminer la concentration en masse de particules PM10 et PM2,5 au niveau de sources d'émissions fixes au moyen d'impacteurs à deux étages. La méthode est particulièrement adaptée au mesurage de concentrations en masse inférieures à 40 mg/m3 sous forme de moyennes toutes les demi-heures dans des conditions normales (273 K, 1 013 hPa, gaz sec). Il s'agit d'une méthode applicable au mesurage des effluents gazeux émis par différentes installations, telles que les installations de production de ciment et d'acier ainsi que par les procédés de combustion.
L'ISO 23210:2009 n'est pas applicable à l'échantillonnage de fumées saturées de vapeur d'eau.
L'ISO 23210:2009 n'est pas applicable lorsque la majorité des particules est susceptible de dépasser PM10, par exemple dans le cas de gaz bruts ou de dysfonctionnements de l'installation.
L'ISO 23210:2009 ne permet pas de déterminer la concentration totale en masse de poussières.
L'ISO 23210:2009 décrit la conception, l'utilisation ainsi que la théorie des impacteurs à buse ronde. Les autres types d'impacteurs ne sont pas exclus à condition que ces systèmes répondent aux critères de performance indiqués dans l'ISO 23210:2009 dans une validation de l'impacteur réalisée par un laboratoire d'essais indépendant.

Emisije nepremičnih virov - Določevanje masne koncentracije PM10/PM2,5 v odpadnih plinih - Meritve pri nizkih koncentracijah z uporabo impaktorjev (ISO 23210:2009)

Ta mednarodni standard določa standardno referenčno metodo za določevanje masne koncentracije PM10 in PM2,5 v stacionarnih emisijskih virih z uporabo dvostopenjskih impaktorjev. Merilna metoda je primerna predvsem za masne koncentracije pod 40 mg/m3 kot polurna povprečja pri standardnih pogojih (273 K, 1013 hPa, suhi plin). Je sprejemljiva metoda za meritve v odpadnih plinih različnih objektov, kot so proizvodnja cementa in jekla ter procesi zgorevanja. Ta mednarodni standard ne velja za vzorčenje odpadnih plinov, ki so nasičeni z vodno paro. Ta mednarodni standard ne velja tam, kjer je verjetno, da večina delcev presega PM10, npr. v primeru neočiščenih plinov ali okvar delovanja obrata. Ta mednarodni standard se ne more uporabiti za določevanje skupne masne koncentracije prahu. Ta mednarodni standard opisuje zasnovo, uporabo in teorijo impaktorjev z zaobljeno razpršilno šobo. Ne izključuje drugih vrst impaktorjev, če ti sistemi ustrezajo merilom za zmogljivost, določenim v tem mednarodnem standardu, pri validaciji impaktorja, ki jo opravi neodvisen preskusni laboratorij.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

ISO 23210:2009(E)
Introduction
In order to quantify the amount of PM and PM particles in stationary source emissions or to identify the
10 2,5
contribution sources of PM and PM in ambient air, it is necessary to measure fine particulate matter in the
10 2,5
flue gas of industrial sources.
This International Standard describes a measurement method for the determination of mass concentrations of
PM and PM emissions, which realizes the same separation curves as those specified in ISO 7708:1995
10 2,5
for PM and PM in ambient air. The method is based on the principle of impaction. During sampling, the
10 2,5
particle fraction is divided into three groups with aerodynamic diameters greater than 10 µm, between 10 µm
and 2,5 µm and smaller than 2,5 µm.
The measurement method allows the simultaneous determination of concentrations of PM and PM
10 2,5
emissions. The method is designed for stack measurements at stationary emission sources.
The contribution of stationary source emissions to PM and PM concentrations in ambient air can be
10 2,5
classified as primary and secondary. Those emissions that exist as particulate matter within the stack gas and
that are emitted directly to air can be considered “primary”. Secondary particulate consists of those emissions
that form in ambient air due to atmospheric chemical reactions. The measurement technique in this
International Standard does not measure the contribution of stack emissions to the formation of secondary
particulate matter in ambient air.
This International Standard includes normative references to ISO 12141:2002. The corresponding
requirements in ISO 12141:2002 are identical to those in European Standards EN 13284-1:2001 and
EN 15259:2007.
