QUESTIONS
1. Describe the rationale for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's establishment of a
standard reference method for measurement of National Ambient Air Quality Standard
air pollutants.
2. Under what conditions can another method be substituted for a standard reference method?
3. Describe the potential interferences (a) in the nondispersive infrared (NDIR) method for
measuring CO and (b) in the chemiluminescent method for measuring NO 2.
4. The electrical aerosol analyzer and the optical counter are used to measure particle size
distributions. Describe the size range and resolution characteristics of each of these instru-
ments.
