Consulting
Our team stands ready to assist you with compliance analysis, test planning and management, reporting, and regulatory reviews.
Compliance Testing
Numerous industries have regulatory limits for air emissions of various pollutants. The basis of these limits may be in the form of a Title V or other air permit, an industry-specific EPA NESHAP regulation, or a consent decree negotiated with a regulatory agency. Air Regulations often require direct air emissions testing to verify that a facility is in compliance. Regulations may require initial performance testing, or ongoing verification. The ACE team has broad capabilities to perform these tests within EPA and state guidelines, to ensure compliance.
RATAs
Facilities that use continuous emissions monitoring systems (CEMS) are required to certify those systems periodically, usually by way of a Relative Accuracy Test Assessment (RATA). Our team is experienced in a comprehensive suite of measurement technologies to conduct successful RATA programs.
Process and Engineering Testing
Many clients desire data prior to the compliance test, to characterize their systems’ performance under different operating conditions, or to develop emission factors. We have designed numerous customized testing programs to provide clients with the information they need, to transform data into knowledge.
