• 11/05/92 <br /> I <br /> Unit running on arrival. Ad]ust unit. Check the influent and <br /> effluent from the system and the vapor from the wells using a <br /> Photovac 1OS50 chromatograph. Collect bag sample of influent <br /> for WEGE laboratory. System set at 23% air dilute. <br /> 11/17/92 <br /> Unit running off arrival. Drain water from collection traps. <br /> Restart and ad]ust unit. Collect bag sample of influent and <br /> effluent for WEGE laboratory. System set at 26. 9% air dilute. <br /> The VOC emissions have never exceeded the 52 lb/day emission limit <br /> for the site. No evidence of Tetrachloroethylene (PCE) was found <br /> during examination of the chomatograms of the samples taken to the <br /> WEGE laboratory. <br /> VAPOR SAMPLING <br /> COLLECTING LABORATORY SAMPLES <br /> Influent Sample <br /> The influent sample is obtained from a sample port located after <br /> the system vacuum pump before the REMOX Unit. Sterile poly tubing <br /> is then used to attach a 1 liter tedlar bag, fitted with a special <br /> septum "valve" and tubing bib, to the sample port. The sample port <br /> is on the pressure side of the pump and therefore the bag will <br /> fill without need of a pump. Once the tedlar bag is filled, its <br /> valve is closed and locked; the appropriate label is placed on the <br /> tedlar bag. <br /> Effluent Sample <br /> A sample port for the effluent is located in the exhaust stack of <br /> the Remox system. The flow pressure from the exhaust is great <br /> enough to fill a tedlar bag. Sterile poly tubing is fitted to the <br /> exhaust port and the tedlar bag. Then the sample valve of the <br /> tedlar bag is opened and the bag is filled with the sample. Once <br /> the tedlar bag is full, the valve is closed and locked, the sample <br /> port closed, and the appropriate label is placed on the bag. <br /> The labels for both the influent and effluent tedlar bag samples <br /> show the date, time, sample ID# and analyses to be run. <br /> Both the influent and effluent tedlar bag samples are then placed <br /> within a cooler, on ice, and are hand delivered to WEGE ' s <br /> laboratory that same day. <br /> Tne vapor sample is Lhen 1njeumed into an E LD (rlau'+c ionize==y { <br /> Detector) chromatograph and the resulting chromatogram compared to <br /> standard chromatograms of known TFH (Total Fuel Hydrocarbons, <br /> gasoline) and BTEX (benzene, toluene, ethlybenzene, and xylenes) <br /> concentrations. <br /> page 3 of R603, 11/23/92 <br />
