Stack Emission Testing

Stack emission testing is a process used to measure the pollutants released into the air from industrial facilities, power plants, and other sources. During this testing, technicians collect samples of gases emitted through a stack or chimney while the facility operates under normal conditions. The collected samples are then analyzed in a laboratory to determine the concentration of various pollutants, such as particulate matter, sulfur dioxide, and nitrogen oxides. This information helps ensure compliance with environmental regulations, assess the impact on air quality, and guide improvements in emissions control technologies.
