What are the feaures of SmartCEM and the statistical hybrid engine?
The statistical hybrid approach is a unique empirical predictive system that requires only a fixed sample of paired process and emissions data. A statistical hybrid PEMS has the following features: · Robust model that is accurate across the full load range of the unit; · Valid for normal operations and during transitional states such as startup and shutdown; · Equivalent accuracy as a CEMS with superior reliability – tied to the plant control system; · Flexibility to be implemented using existing process instrumentation and data interfaces; · Certified as an alternative system under U.S. EPA for continuous compliance monitoring; · Can be assessed using quality control procedures required under programs of the U.S. EPA; · Can be developed and retrained by non-technical onsite staff or consultants; · Can be tested against EPA reference methods; · Has been demonstrated under 40 CFR Part 60, Performance Specification 16; and · Has been demonstrated under 40 CFR Part 75, Subpart E.
