EPA Method 0010

This is a modified method to allow for simultaneous sampling and analysis for polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs), polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs), and semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs) from stationary sources.  This is often commonly referred to in the industry as a joint train because two sampling methods are combined in order to save costs when sampling from the same source at the same conditions.

The 0010 Sampling Train uses a Modified Method 5 system with the addition of a riserless Method 23 extension glassware. This extra glassware consists of the "S" connector from the filter, horizontal Pyrex coil condenser, XAD sorbent trap and moisture knockout impinger. We also carry the vertical Pyrex coil condenser for use with a riser box that will accommodate the extra height required by the condenser and XAD trap mounted on top of the first impinger. An 8-impinger coldbox is recommended to accommodate the required M23-RC coolant recirculating pump, the standard Method 5 impinger set and the Method 23 extension glassware. This 0010 Sampling System can also be used for Method 23 Dioxins.
