Channeled PM₁₀, PM_2.5 and PM₁ Emission Factors Associated with the Ceramic Process and Abatement Technologies.

ABSTRACT: A sampling methodology and a mathematical data treatment were developed that enable to determine not only total suspended particulates (TSP) emitted at channeled sources but also the PM₁₀, PM_2.5, and PM₁ mass fractions (w₁₀, w_2.5, and w₁) and emission factors (E.F.), using a seven-stage cascade impactor. Moreover, a chemical analysis was performed to identify the elements present in these emissions. The proposed methodology was applied to different stages of the ceramic process, including ambient temperature (milling, shaping, glazing) and medium-high-temperature (spray-drying, drying, firing, and frit melting) stages. In total, more than 100 measurements were performed (pilot scale and industrial scale), which leads to a me
