RE: Coke Oven ICR method questions


Hello all  -  Sorry for the delay in this response, but I was out on vacation last week and did not hear back from measurement people in time before I left for the day/week. 

We are fine with your approach. Please also include a detailed description of the procedure for the combined analysis in your analytical report.

Subject: Coke Oven ICR method questions

Donna  -  EQ is performing the testing at AK Steel Middletown for the Coke Oven ICR and I had a sampling method question.  In Table 1-B of Enclosure 2, it says we can perform CARB 428 & 429 together for the semi-volatile HAPs.  I wanted to see if it was approved to combine these into one train if we spiked the traps for both semi-volatiles and dioxin/furans.  We would use acetone, methylene chloride, and toluene as our solvent rinses (acetone and methylene chloride in one bottle and toluene in a second) and water as our impinger solution.

Please let us know if this approach is acceptable or if there was anything we should modify.

Thanks
Doug
