The international standard was prepared by Technical Committee146, Air quality, of the International Organization for Standardizati

12、on (ISO) with the active participation and approval of the UK. BS 6069 is being published in a series of Parts and Sections that will generally correspond to particular International Standards arising from the UK participation in the work of ISO/TC146. This Section of BS6069 is one of several relati

Topics relating to other aspects of air quality characterization will be published as further Parts or Sections of BS6069. The

14、 following Parts of BS6069 have already been published: Part 1: Units of measurement; Part 2: Glossary. Methods for the determination of particular consitituents of ambient air are being published as Parts of BS1747 Methods for the measurement of air pollution. The Technical Committee has reviewed t

When adopting the text of the International Standard, the following textual error was discovered. It has been marked in the t

16、ext and has been reported to ISO in a proposal to amend the text of the International Standard. In Table 1, note2, line5, “HN” should read “HF”. Additional information. Further information on the sampling of flue gases (stationary source emissions) may be found inBS1756-1:1971. A British Standard ba

17、sed on an ISO Standard is under development on this subject. Under UK conditions, a typical measuring range for sulfur dioxide in furnaces for hard coal fitted with stack gas desulfuration plant would be0g/m 2to0.5g/m 2(Table 2).

This standa

20、rd has been updated (see copyright date) and may have had amendments incorporated. This will be indicated in the amendment table on the inside front cover.BS6069-4.4:1993 BSI 08-1999 1 1 Scope This International Standard specifies a complete set of values of performance characteristics for automated

21、 measuring systems for the continuous measurement of the mass concentrations of sulfur dioxide in stationary source emissions. NOTE 1If the performance characteristics of an automated measuring system are listed according toTable 1, this ensures that the automated measuring system is reliable and gi

22、ves satisfactory continuous results. The set of data listed inTable 1 refers to the performance characteristics of measurement methods, including all steps from sampling to recording and, if necessary, storage of data. This International Standard is applicable to extractive and non-extractive automa

23、ted sulfur dioxide measuring methods. For both methods it implies the applicability of zero and calibration gas and the availability of comparable samples. The automated measuring system can be calibrated with calibration gases, by applying the manual method described in ISO7934, or by applying an a

24、utomated measuring system previously verified according to this International Standard using a different principle of detection. The value of the integral performance(3.7) is determined by using ISO7934 or an automated measuring system verified according to this International Standard with a differe

25、nt principle of detection. At present, the range over which this specification applies is between0g/m 3to0,1g/m 3and0g/m 3to8g/m 3(seeTable 2 for details). NOTE 2Although it is impossible to give precise testing details, the requirements and testing principles are also applicable to non-extractive s

36、tionary source emissions containing sulfur dioxide 3.7 integral performance, s A the integral performance is a measure of the working accuracy of the AMS. It is calculated according to the formula for standard deviations the integral performance is derived from the difference in the pairs of measure

37、d values of sulfur dioxide by the AMS under investigation, and by an ISO manual method or a verified AMS of different measuring principle on the basis of a sufficient number of comparative measurements spread over the period of unattended operation (seeAnnex A) NOTE 3It is not possible to determine

38、the standard deviation of an AMS under repeatable working conditions because commercially available calibration gas mixtures containing sulfur dioxide do not have all the properties of actual waste gas and do not cover all possible influences; the mass concentration of sulfur dioxide in waste gas us

39、ually varies with time; it is not possible to maintain the properties of a waste gas present in the waste gas flue when it is transferred into a vessel. NOTE 4The reason that the integral performance is defined as a measure of the working accuracy, is that it contains, in addition to random errors,

40、all the effects of interfering substances, changes in temperature and power line as well as zero drifts and span drifts. It also includes the standard deviation of the ISO manual method or the verified AMS using a different principle of detection, which can be determined separately and eliminated if

41、 necessary. Furthermore, it includes the effects, for the different methods, of a different response time to variations in the composition of the waste gas. The integral performance defined in this subclause is an upper limiting value for the AMS. Relevant systematic errors of the measured values of

42、 the ISO manual method, or the verified AMS using a different principle of detection, have to be known and taken into account. 3.8 chimney stack or final exit duct on a stationary process used for the dispersion of residual process gases 3.9 mass concentration the concentration of a substance in an

44、.1 Introduction There are two types of automated measuring systems: extractive methods; non-extractive methods, known as in-situ or cross-duct measuring methods. Examples of the components of these systems are given inFigure 1 andFigure 2. Using the extractive method, the representative gas sample i

45、s taken from the stack with a sampling probe and conveyed to the analyser through the sample line and sample gas conditioning system. The values determined are often recorded or stored by means of electronic data processing. The non-extractive method does not require any sample processing. In additi

46、on, it takes into consideration a larger part of the waste gas. Most of the methods described in4.2 and4.3 are able to determine sulfur dioxide specifically. Methods which rely on conductometry determine total sulfur oxides. 4.2 Extractive methods The extractive methods enable separation of the samp

47、ling and analysis parts, thereby facilitating maintenance operations. The main parts are a sample probe; a sample line; a gas conditioning system; an analytical part. Certain extractive methods also include sample dilution. The sample probe is placed inside the duct containing gaseous effluents. The

48、 choice of locations may sometimes be difficult, since the measurement to be made needs to be representative and calibration should be possible.BS6069-4.4:1993 BSI 08-1999 3 The design of the sample probe and the gas conditioning system essentially depends on physicochemical characteristics (composi

49、tion of the gaseous phase, particle concentration, temperature, water dew point, etc.) of the effluents to be analysed and the principle of the analyser used. Since particulate matter and humidity may influence the measurement, the line contains a particulate filter and a humidity elimination device. In order to limit sulfur dioxide losses and inconsistent readings, the line is frequently heated. The analytical detection methods most commonly used are absorption, using infrared or ultraviolet radiation, fluo
