“…With one exception, air pollution emissions from foundry operations can generally be assessed using the procedures and tools now in routine use by air pollution engineers. Equipment and procedures for this purpose are described by a number of authors including Magill, Holden, and Ackley, 1 the Manufacturing Chemists' Association, 2 Dalla Valle, 3 the Western Precipitation Corporation, 4 Kanter, Lunche, and Fudurich, 5 and the American Society of Mechanical Engineers. 6 Fairly well standardized procedures for the collection of both particulate and gaseous source samples from stacks and ducts are described along with procedures for area sampling, e.g., dustfall measurements, high-volume sampling of atmospheric air, etc.…”
