EPA Method 0051

MIDGET IMPINGER HCl/Cl2 EMISSION SAMPLING TRAIN

This method describes the collection of hydrogen chloride (HCl) and chlorine (Cl2) in stack gas emission samples from hazardous waste incinerators and municipal waste combustors. The collected samples are analyzed using Method 9057. This method is designed to collect HCl/Cl2 in their gaseous forms. Use of this method is limited to the sampling of relatively dry, particulate-free gas streams. Sources, such as those controlled by wet scrubbers, that emit acid particulate matter (e.g., HCl dissolved in water droplets) must be sampled using an isokinetic HCl/Cl2 sampling train (see Method 0050). This method has potential for collection of all halogens and halogen acids, but has not been fully evaluated for that use. For analytical determination of additional halides, Method 9056 is used rather than Method 9057.
