2. Sampling Of Gaseous Pollutants
• Sampling Flow Rate is required as per test
method(0.2 – 1.0 lpm)
• Unfiltered air is bubbled through reagents , which
either react or dissolve the gas of interest.
• Impingers can be arranged in series or parallel.
• Individual flow control.
• Flow adjustment by Rotameter.
• Ice tray.

5. Monitoring of Gaseous Pollutants
Sampling Period
• Sampling period are decided based on objectives.
• Care is required in deciding sampling period it should be for duration of available
standard.
Deciding Sampling Reagent
10-30ml is reasonable volume need to be decided based on detection limit of pollutant,
expected ambient concentration and flow rate decided by duration of sampling.
Criteria for valid samples
Accept sample if it has run for 75% of decided sampling duration otherwise reject the
sample.
Sl. No. Period Rate of Sampling/lpm
1. 30 min 2
2. 1 hr. 1
3. 1-4 hr. 0.5
4. 8 hrs. 0.2
5. 8-24 hrs. 0.1-0.2
