AERIAL SAMPLING OF EFFLUENT FROM WASTE FIRES. Project 6(1-9964)
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:4336229
An airborne sampling device was modified and tested. This device makes it possible to obtain representative samples of air and particulate matter at altitudes up to 1000 feet and in winds up to 25 mph. The sampling apparatus consists of two model airplane engines which draw air through filters for continuous sampling of particulate matter; and two one-gallon jugs containing balloons whieh, by deflation, take volumetric samples of air. The sampling apparatus is carried aloft by means of a helium-filled kite balloon. The equipment is used to obtain samples of effluent from waste fires for use in diffusion studies.
