What is BS EN 13284-2 - Mass concentration of dust in Automated measuring system about ?
BS EN 13284-2 is the second part of the multi-series European standard that specifies requirements for the calibration and validation (QAL2), the ongoing quality assurance during operation (QAL3) and the annual surveillance test (AST) of automated measuring systems (AMS) used for monitoring dust emissions from stationary sources to demonstrate compliance with emission limit values (ELV) below 50 mg/m3 at standard conditions. It specifically deals with measurements in wet gases and at low concentrations.
BS EN 13284-2 is derived from EN 14181 and is only applicable in conjunction with EN 14181.
BS EN 13284-2 is applicable by direct correlation with the standard reference method (SRM) described in EN 13284‑1.
Who is BS EN 13284-2 - Mass concentration of dust in Automated measuring system for ?
BS EN 13284-2 on stationary waste emissions is relevant to:
- Product Engineers
- Chemical Engineers
- Quality assurance department
- Manufacturers and industries using furnaces and gas towers
- Researchers and scientists
Why should you use BS EN 13284-2 - Mass concentration of dust in Automated measuring system ?
The gravimetric method in analytical chemistry is used to determine the amount of analyte based on the mass of a solid substance.
BS EN 13284-2 describes the quality assurance procedures related to automated measuring systems (AMS) for the determination of dust in the waste gas, to meet the uncertainty requirements on measured values given by regulations.
BS EN 13284-2 was primarily developed for the measurement of emissions from waste incinerators. From a technical point of view, it can be applied to other processes, for which measurement at an emission limit is required with defined uncertainty.
Overall, BS EN 13284-2 provides manufacturers with technical information and test methods for measuring low range mass concentrations using a variety of methods and provides quality assurance for automated devices that will save time and improve productivity.
