1 Scope
This document describes a method for sampling and determining the concentration of gaseous emissions
to atmosphere of multiple species from ducts and stacks by extractive Fourier transform infrared (FTIR)
spectroscopy.
This method is applicable to periodic monitoring and to the calibration or control of automated
measuring systems (AMS) permanently installed on a stack, for regulatory or other purposes.
