VAPOR SAMPLING <br /> i• I 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 with out 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 <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 3.nfluent 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 />} <br /> The vapor sample is then infected into a FID (Flame Ionizing <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 /> t concentrations . <br /> F <br /> E <br /> f <br /> f <br /> I <br /> I <br /> E <br /> 4 <br />
