Results are presented from the collaborative test of EPA Method 6-B for the twenty-four hour analysis of SO/SUB/2, CO/SUB/2, and emission rate. Using both the intermittent and continuous options of Method 6-B, nine laboratories simultaneously sampled the stack at a flue gas desulfurizing unit of a coal burning electric power plant. The precision and accuracy of the method was based on results of 145 continuous determinations performed by the collaborators over a five day period.
