SPECIFICATIONS FOR CONTINUOUS MEASURING D EVICES OF SUGAR FACTORY EMISSIONS

This paper looks at the provisions of the German regulations concernin g continuous monitoring of dust emissions. The following are the main conclusions: Exact knowledge of the composition, temperature, moisture , particulate size distribution, and flow conditions of the waste gas to be measured is required prior to analysis. The place of measurement can only be determined after thorough specific investigation. In the case of gases with a high water vapour content, eventual employment of a continuous dust measuring device largely depends on the possible fo rmation of condensate and drip. The effectiveness of a dust measuring device depends on regular maintenance in accordance with manufacturer' s instructions.
