ESS began regularly stack testing stationary reciprocating internal combustion engines (RICE) in 2010 due to the promulgation of 40 CFR 63 Subpart ZZZZ on March 3rd, 2010. Since then, ESS has conducted over 600 stack tests on RICE engines.
The EPA has three regulations that govern stationary engines:
ESS sets the standard for client support when it comes to stack testing. Our dedicated RICE mobile laboratory is equipped with backup analyzers and its own power source. We offer solutions that include wellness checks, temporary stack construction, operational data documentation and verification, and notification of compliance (NOC) preparation. ESS regularly conducts stack tests from Northern NY to Southern Florida in every state west of Colorado.
EPA has developed version 11.0 of a proposed screening level methodology that will be used to further examine whether the policy decision to exclude air and water exposure pathways from the risk evaluations will lead to a failure to identify and protect fenceline communities.
Condensable Particulate Matter emission limits have been on the rise in multiple states and are affecting many industries. EPA Method 202 was written to quantify particulates that condense at ambient conditions and has been revised numerous times to reduce interference and increase effectiveness.
Ethylene Oxide (EtO) and ethylene glycol have been on the Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) toxic chemical list since its inception in 1987, but not all facilities that use these chemicals have been subject to TRI reporting requirements.
ESS assists LEED builders and property owners globally by providing Air testing utilizing EPA, ISO and ASTM methodologies and Blower Door testing in accordance with ANSI/ASTM-E779-03 Standard test method for determining air leakage rate by fan pressurization.
