Air Pollution Potential from Electroplating Operations

Abstract

Measurements were made of emission rates from electroplating operations considered to have maximum air pollution potential. Sampling was performed at McClellan and additional data from a previous survey at Hill Air Force Base was used. Values obtained were extremely low. Based on existing Federal standards, no collectors are specifically required for electroplating emissions. Experience of State and industry air pollution personnel, however, indicates that chrome plating and strong caustic emissions do require collectors.
