Peroxyacetyl nitrate and methanol data from FT-IR spectral records during the 1986 Carbonaceous Species Methods Comparison Study. Final report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6099218

Peroxyacetyl nitrate (PAN) and methanol (CH3OH) concentrations were derived from the longpath FT-IR spectra which were recorded during the Carbonaceous Species Methods Comparison Study (CSMCS) held on August 12-21, 1986 at Glendora, California. Both the detailed instantaneous and hourly average values of PAN and CH3OH were determined. The FT-IR PAN data are compared with measurements by another laboratory using gas chromatography with electron captive detection (EC-GC).
