Reduce formaldehyde or THC emissionsi. Select the sampling port location and the number/location of traverse points at the inlet and outlet of the control device; and(a) For formaldehyde, THC, O2, and moisture measurement, ducts ≤6 inches in diameter may be sampled at a single point located at the duct centroid and ducts >6 and ≤12 inches in diameter may be sampled at 3 traverse points located at 16.7, 50.0, and 83.3% of the measurement line (`3-point long line'). If the duct is >12 inches in diameter and the sampling port location meets the two and half-diameter criterion of section 11.1.1 of method 1 of 40 CFR part 60, appendix A, the duct may be sampled at `3-point long line'; otherwise, conduct the stratification testing and select sampling points according to section 8.1.2 of method 7E of 40 CFR part 60, appendix A. ii. Measure O2 at the inlet and outlet of the control device; and(1) Method 3 or 3A or 3B of 40 CFR part 60, appendix A-2, or ASTM D6522-00 (Reapproved 2005) 1 3 (heated probe not necessary)(b) Measurements to determine O2 concentration must be made at the same time as the measurements for formaldehyde or THC concentration. iii. Measure moisture content at the inlet and outlet of the control device as needed to determine formaldehyde or THC and O2 concentrations on a dry basis; and(2) Method 4 of 40 CFR part 60, appendix A-3, or method 320 of 40 CFR part 63, appendix A, or ASTM D6348-03 1 3(c) Measurements to determine moisture content must be made at the same time and location as the measurements for formaldehyde or THC concentration. iv. If demonstrating compliance with the formaldehyde percent reduction requirement, measure formaldehyde at the inlet and the outlet of the control device(3) Method 320 or 323 of 40 CFR part 63, appendix A; or ASTM D6348-03, 1 3 provided in ASTM D6348-03 Annex A5 (Analyte Spiking Technique), the percent R must be greater than or equal to 70 and less than or equal to 130(d) Formaldehyde concentration must be at 15 percent O2, dry basis. Results of this test consist of the average of the three 1-hour or longer runs. v. If demonstrating compliance with the THC percent reduction requirement, measure THC at the inlet and the outlet of the control device(4) (1) Method 25A, reported as propane, of 40 CFR part 60, appendix A-7(e) THC concentration must be at 15 percent O2, dry basis. Results of this test consist of the average of the three 1-hour or longer runs. 3. Stationary RICEa. Limit the concentration of formaldehyde or CO in the stationary RICE exhausti. Select the sampling port location and the number/location of traverse points at the exhaust of the stationary RICE; and(a) For formaldehyde, CO, O2, and moisture measurement, ducts ≤6 inches in diameter may be sampled at a single point located at the duct centroid and ducts >6 and ≤12 inches in diameter may be sampled at 3 traverse points located at 16.7, 50.0, and 83.3% of the measurement line (`3-point long line'). If the duct is >12 inches in diameter and the sampling port location meets the two and half-diameter criterion of section 11.1.1 of method 1 of 40 CFR part 60, appendix A, the duct may be sampled at `3-point long line'; otherwise, conduct the stratification testing and select sampling points according to section 8.1.2 of method 7E of 40 CFR part 60, appendix A. If using a control device, the sampling site must be located at the outlet of the control device. ii.
