The project of CEMS installation guidance and management for the stationary sources.

Absrtact
The purposes for this project are focus on review and control the system operation, running and management of the effects for CEMS. The targets of this project also included that helping Taiwan EPA to amend audit manual and CEMS DAHS system development. We improve the air pollution control operations and grasp that should be set the stationary sources continuous monitoring facilities and assist local competent authority in the management of public or private premises monitoring facilities operation and maintenance situations, computer programs, and monitoring data whether is true. Based on these results, we promote the specialized ability of applied management for CEMS business contractor personnel. To avoid public and private premises falsify CEMS emissions data, we need to understand the management mechanism between CEMS data and the system parameters and the development process of home and abroad CEMS control operations, then we develop CEMS control regime as these reference. We continued to build the localized emission characteristics for screening 9 stacks which were announced 1-3 batches by EPA, analyzing the correlation, trends and other emission characteristics profile between the various parameters and emissions data. Simultaneously, we compared emission differences of the same type and scale sources, and compared the differences and rationality between the domestic and foreign reference. We also collect 40CFR63 NESHAP regulations relating CPMS, then we compared the correlation of CEMS and pollution control equipment operational parameters with RTO combustion chamber temperature and NMHC CEMS monitoring data which were belong to a domestic optoelectronics company. We develop standard of air pollution control facility operating parameters by referring to the U.S. EPA PS-17 draft, 40CFR63 and domestic CEMS management practices performance specifications, then we pick 5 public and private premises to conduct velocity coefficient test, and assist the real plant to test the connection rate with TTLA and TSIA, and verify the feasibility between the speed coefficient in CEMS amendment draft and the assessment of in response to the announcement management approach connection rate control standards in optoelectronics industry and the semiconductor industry. We not only amend to the site inspections, legal document review procedures manuals and guidance manuals, but also establish the standard installation procedures of monitoring facilities and counseling manual for CEMS business to refer, and we develop action audit tools and back-end data management system that allows CEMS audit more quickly and efficiently. We complete the build CEMS DAHS management platform, including DAHS design code management system to upload the database and encryption mechanism design, and combined with natural system account credentials and account management as a generic electronic management platform. With natural credentials dual authentication and non-repudiation, we strengthen CEMS DAHS system and integrate electronic document management platform, to enhance the efficiency of the authority CEMS management and achieve the purpose of convenience. In view of all previous counselling and audit work, we develop the counselling question registers, establishment quantity as well as fitting in law control index of public or private premises. The semiconductor industry CEMS for 15 stacks and the general industrial waste incinerators for 5 stacks have set counseling. The optoelectronics industries for 10 stacks have carried out relative accuracy test audit on site. We audit 15 sessions with the plan of air pollution fee checking, and then we select 5 flues to test the standard gas concentration. By this audit work, we assess the ability to confirm the domestic monitor facility standard gas by the domestic standard gas authentication organization, which can be used as the basis for future standard gas control and repair method. In order to enhance the specialized ability of applied management for CEMS business contractor personnel, we held 6 sessions CEMS seminars which were based on CEMS application management curriculum teaching materials in 2012. To grasp the quality of the management for EPB, we visit the 16 counties EPB for checking records, Self-management system and database. We also assist EPA to revise the "public and private premises stationary sources of volatile organic compounds monitoring facility performance specifications reference draft", conduct public hearings for 2 sessions and provide regulations, management systems manual, on-site technical support and other consultancy services.
