Question 1.
Define emission rate.
Show hintHide hint
Think about how emissions are measured.
Question 2.
What are fugitive emissions?
Show hintHide hint
Consider where you may find unintentional emissions in industry.
3Question 3.
What comprises the emission rate?
- Emission Factor
- Activity Rate
- Both A and B
Show hintHide hint
Remember that these two components are essential for calculating emissions.
4Question 4.
True or False: Fugitive emissions are planned and controlled releases of pollutants.
- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Think about the nature of 'fugitive' in this context.
Question 5.
Design a monitoring system for an industrial facility to track both point and fugitive emissions. Consider factors like frequency, technologies, and reporting.
Show hintHide hint
Think about what technologies can be used and how often inspections should occur.
Question 6.
Using the Gaussian Dispersion Model, estimate the air quality impact of a specific industrial emission over 24 hours when the emission factor is given.
