RESEARCH REPORTING SERIES
Research reports of the Office of Research and Development, U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency, have been grouped into nine series. These nine broad cate-
gories were established to facilitate further development and application of
environmental technology. Elimination of traditional grouping was consciously
planned to foster technology transfer and a maximum interface in related fields.
The nine series are:
1. Environmental Health Effects Research
2. Environmental Protection Technology
3. Ecological Research
4. Environmental Monitoring
5. Socioeconomic Environmental Studies
6. Scientific and Technical Assessment Reports (STAR)
7. Interagency Energy-Environment Research and Development
8. "Special" Reports
9. Miscellaneous Reports
This report has been assigned to the SPECIAL REPORTS series. This series is
reserved for reports which are intended to meet the technical information needs
of specifically targeted user groups. Reports in this series include Problem Orient-
ed Reports, Research Application Reports, and Executive Summary Documents.
Typical of these reports include state-of-the-art analyses, technology assess-
ments, reports on the results of major research and development efforts, design
manuals, and user manuals.

1.0 Introduction
The Fine Particle Emissions information System (FPEIS) is a computerized
information system which contains data on primary fine particle emissions
to the atmosphere from stationary point sources and includes data on con-
trol device performance. The purpose of the system is to provide a cen-
tralized source of fine particle measurement information for use by en-
gineers and scientists engaged in fine particle control technology devel-
opment and in the environmental assessment of industrial processes.
The contents of the FPEIS may include source test data with particle size
distributions; chemical, physical, and bioassay testing results from anal-
yses of particulate samples; and design and performance data on any par-
ticle control systems applied. Also included are process descriptions of
the sources and descriptions of the sampling equipment and techniques em-
ployed. This information is classified and arranged so as to enable users
to correlate FPEIS data with information contained in other data bases.
For this reason, the NEDS Source Classification Codes, the SOTDAT par-
21
ticulate chemical identification indices, and the Chemical Abstracts
Services registration numbers are used in the FPEIS.

A uniform protocol for units and terminology has been developed along with
standard data input forms and output report formats. Each data element
in the system has been defined in detail for clarity. These standards and
definitions will allow all data in the system to be stored or retrieved
on a common basis*
The FPEIS has been implemented at the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
National Computer Center (NCC) at Research Triangle Park, on the UNIVAC
1110 computer, using SYSTEM 2000ฎ, a flexible data base management system.
SYSTEM 2000, developed by MRI Systems, Inc., of Austin, Texas (no rela-
tion to Midwest Research Institute (MRI)), will provide users with a vir-
tually unlimited potential for data analysis. Features of SYSTEM 2000 in-
clude sorting, comparing, and retrieving information from the FPEIS in
a variety of arrangements.
This document constitutes a basic Reference Manual for the FPEIS. Topics
covered include a detailed description of the FPEIS data base with defi-
nitions of all data types and elements, a list of available information
request procedures, sample data input forms, output format capabilities,
and a listing of the emission sources and control devices currently re-
ported in the FPEIS data base, in order of unique Test Series Number. A
companion document, the FPEIS User Guide (EPA-600/8-78-006), contains de-
tailed instructions for encoding and submitting new data to the FPEIS,
as well as specific procedures to be used for retrieving information
from the data base.

2.0 Introduction
The FPEIS contains industrial source emissions test data and any applied
control device design and operating data. It attempts to describe com-
pletely the aerosol at the point from which the particulate sample is
collected from the gas stream. General categories of information include
source characteristics, control system descriptions, process operating
conditions, particulate mass train results, physical, biological, and
chemical properties of the particulates, information on the particulate
size measurement equipment or method, and particulate size distribution
data. Each category of information includes a number of related data
elements, each of which is a unique variable essential for the descrip-
tion of the source tested.
The discussion in this section is intended to introduce the new FPEIS
user to the data base. This section includes a narrative description of
the structure, organization, and format of the FPEIS. The specific defi-
nition of each data element is contained in Section 3 while encoding in-
structions are given in Section 2 of the User Guide, Users should be
thoroughly familiar with the contents of both documents before attempt-
ing to encode data.

2.1 FPEIS Structure
The structure of the FPEIS data base includes data elements sufficient
to provide information for source tests where fine particle measurements
were made. A data element is defined as a computer variable correspond-
ing to a particular source test data item. The completeness of informa-
tion for any given source test within the data base is limited only by
the availability of such information as contained in the test report or
original test data from which the FPEIS input was derived and as pro-
vided by the testing group.
The organization of the FPEIS is shown in Figure 2.1-1. The input data
to the FPEIS have generally been derived from source test reports, pub-
lished papers, or FPEIS Data Input Forms as standard practice. Each re-
port or paper may have test data on one or more source/control device
combinations. (An uncontrolled source is defined as a combination of
source and no control devices.) All the data pertaining to a source/
control device combination obtained at a certain time are given a unique
test series number. For example, all data obtained on the Union Electric
Meramec plant, Boiler Unit 1, as a part of "Refuse Firing Demonstration
Study," were given five test series numbers. They are Test Series Nos.
19, 28, 29, 30, and 31, which were tests conducted during December 1973,
November 1974, March 1975, May 1975, and November 1975, respectively.
During each Test Series, coal only and/or coal-plus-refuse was burned,
and the boiler was operated at various power loads. These Test Series
Numbers are unique numbers which are assigned by the FPEIS project officer
June 1978

KM-2.1-2
and may be used to retrieve all of the data pertaining to a particular
source test; that is, no two test series will have the same Test Series
Number.
Each test series consists of a number of subsets or subseries which rep-
resent all the data pertaining either to a given combination of source
and control device operating parameters or to data taken at either the
inlet or outlet of the control device. The subseries ties different sam-
pling activities together and gives a complete description of the gas
stream for the various operating conditions of the source and control
device. Subseries are numbered sequentially from one within a given test
series.
The test run, which is the fundamental unit of the FPEIS system, is de-
fined as any test measurement of a specific source/control device combi-
nation for a specific length of time, and using a specific particle size
measuring instrument or method. For example, one size distribution mea-
surement using an impactor train constitutes a run. Another size distribu-
tion measurement using an optical particle counter made at about the same
time, with the source and control device operating parameters unchanged,
constitutes another run. The mass train results such as those using EPA
Method 5 are not treated as a test run since the focus is upon particle
size distribution data, and these results are included at the subseries
level as additional information.
June 1978
-------
KM-2.1-3
The test run as defined above has some advantages and disadvantages. The
i
disadvantages stem from the fact that the test run data being obtained
by a single particle size measuring instrument or method may not cover
the entire size spectrum of the particles; therefore, it may be necessary
to group several test runs representing data from different instruments
to obtain a complete size distribution. On the other hand, this approach
has flexibility in that the data obtained by each instrument can be eval-
uated separately. This may be important in view of the history of varia-
tions in sampling system performance. For example, if six optical parti-
cle counter runs are made within the time of one impactor run, all the
optical particle counter runs can be averaged and compared with the im-
pactor run, or the six runs of the optical particle counter can be
treated separately, getting a time resolution for the optical data.
An advantage of the test run, as defined, is that it simplifies data cod-
ing and verification; that is, a discrete sample is a test run. Further-
more, editing the data obtained by different instruments is also simpli-
fied. As an example, the cut points of an impactor which are found to be
erroneous can, at a later date, be changed very easily. Test runs are num-
bered sequentially from one within the same subseries.
A test subseries is defined as a group of test runs at a specified loca-
tion and under the same source/collector operating characteristics. Sig-
nificant changes in source or collector operation as part of the test
protocol define a new subseries. Examples of different subseries are: a
planned change in the air-to-cloth ratio for a fabric filter under test;
June 1978
-------
RM-2.1-4
a change in source feed material; or the charging cycle, melting cycle,
lancing, and pouring for an arc furnace. Similarly, a change in measure-
ment location (e.g., inlet or outlet of a collector) also defines a new
subseries. Associated with each test subseries are the relevant data for
source operating characteristics, control device operating parameters,
sampling conditions, and any other data which describe the situation ex-
isting during the period of the test subseries. These data should be nom-
inal values which are representative of the actual values of the various
parameters in all the runs of the subseries. Supplemental information may
be included, such as subsequent chemical analysis or biological testing
of the collected particulate on a total mass basis or as a function of
particle size. Additionally, provisions are also made for narrative com-
ments which can be used to provide information not elsewhere classified.
Test subseries are numbered sequentially within a test series by the en-
coder when the data are compiled for entry into the system. This arrange-
ment allows for the grouping of simultaneous test runs into a common data
set.
Subseries data sets for a source/collector test program are contained
within a test series. Again, a test series is defined as all the test
runs and subseries for an identifiable testing program. Samples taken
from the same source/collector combination at different periods will re-
sult in different test series. Samples taken from other sources at the
same site or plant, or at separate plants, will also define a different
test series. The specific definition of a test series will depend upon
June 1978
-------
RM-2.1-5
the nature of the testing program itself* Usually, a test report or samp-
ling activity at a site will contain data for only one test series; how-
ever, it is possible to define several test series from the same activity
or report* A table of Test Series Numbers and sources presently contained
in the FPEIS data base is given in Section 5.3.
It should be emphasized that the definitions given for test series and
subseries are not inflexible. The user (or encoder) has the complete dis-
cretion to define the test series and subseries in a way that most closely
satisfies his data needs or that is most compatible with his test program.
The definitions as given are merely guidelines to the user.

2.2 .FPEIS Organization
FPEIS data are grouped into five general categories of information. These
include: (a) general source description and related information; (b) con-
trol device characteristics and design parameters; (c) source process con-
ditions and control device operating parameters; (d) biological and chemi-
cal analysis results; and (e) particle size measurement equipment and data,
Each of these categories is described in the following subsections. The
relationship between these general categories of information and the data
base structure discussed in the previous section is shown in Table 2.2-1.
This table also lists the discrete data elements which comprise the data
base itself.

2.2.1 Source and Test Series Related Information
This group of data elements identifies the stationary source that was te ted,
the source location, and the origin of the data which comprise the test se-
ries. To enable a general grouping of sources to be made, each source has
been described in terms of the NEDS Source Classification Codes- that are
applicable. The use of the NEDS codes is by specification of the word de-
scription, not the associated numeric code. The source location is de-
scribed by address as well as by Universal Transverse Mercator zone and
X-Y coordinates as defined by the U.S. Geological Survey maps with scales
less than 1:62,500.-
The name of the testing organization and the reference (report, journal
article, etc.) from which the data have been extracted are included. Ad-
ditionally, remarks or data may be included which may be pertinent to the
test series, but for which a specific data type is not available.
An important feature to note is that the FPEIS can protect confidential
or proprietary source data like site name and address. The FPEIS will ac-
cept the entry "CONFIDENTIAL" for any source whose identity cannot be dis-
closed by the encoding group. This enables the FPEIS to store important
particle size data from sources which would otherwise be unavailable to
the FPEIS. EPA will have no knowledge whatsoever of the identity of the
source.

2.2.2 Control Device Characteristics and Design Parameters
The definition and description of the control system tested (if any) for
the test series as well as pertinent design parameters are contained in
this grouping of data elements. Standard nomenclature (see Sections 3.1
and 3.2) is used to characterize the device by category, class, generic
type, commercial name, and manufacturer. Additional device descriptive
material is provided that may be necessary for novel or hybrid control
systems. The device descriptive elements are arranged such that maximum
flexibility exists for cases where multiple devices are involved. Up to
three control devices in series on a given source may be reported.
Control device design parameters are indicated by type and value, where
known. A tabulation of suggested minimum specification types are provided
as standard nomenclature (see Section 2.1.6 of the User Guide, EPA-600/8-
78-006) for the four most common generic device types: Electrostatic Pre-
cipitator, Cyclone, Wet Scrubber, and Fabric Filter. The units to be used
are also given. The FPEIS uses metric units throughout.

-------
RM-2.2-5
2.2.3 Test Characteristics and Control Device(s) Operating Parameters
Data contained in this group of data elements identify and define the test
subseries date and time, sampling location description, and specific source
operating parameters. Items such as the source operating rates and mode,
feed material and its composition, and stack gas conditions are also in-
cluded. Ancillary test results such as mass train, analysis of gas composi-
tion (Orsat, Fyrite, etc.), physical measurement of the particulate (den-
sity, resistivity, etc.), and trace gas analysis can be reported. Additional
remarks or data pertinent to the test subseries or test run which may be of
use to the FPEIS users are also given.
Control device(s) operating parameters are indicated by type and value, and
are described by standard nomenclature with units to be used also given (see
Section 2.1.6 of the User Guide, EPA-600/8-78-006). As in the case of design
parameters (see Section 2.2.2), suggested operating parameters are given for
the four most common generic device types: Electrostatic Precipitator, Cy-
clone, Wet Scrubber, and Fabric Filter. The user may define and include
additional parameters as required.
June 1978
-------
RM-2.2-6
2.2.4 Biological and Chemical Analysis Data
Bioassay and chemical analyses which were performed on collected particu-
late matter are included in this data group. The specific protocol for en-
tering bioassay test results into the FPEIS will be added at a later date.
Particulate Chemical Composition: Present chemical analysis techniques
do not provide for real time, in situ analysis of the particulate matter
in a gas stream. Generally, particulate samples are extracted from the
gas stream by means of some type of inertial collection device such as
a multiple cyclone collector or cascade impactor, and chemical analyses
are performed on the material collected on each stage. In some cases, only
the material collected from a mass train filter or from the pooling of
collector stages is analyzed. The FPEIS has the capability of storing the
results of chemical analyses (expressed as a concentration in micrograms
per cubic meter) either as a function of particle size or as a mass train
filter catch or pooled stages. When data are given according to particle
size, the particle diameters may be based upon the Stokes, the aerodynamic,
or the impaction diameter definition and may be either calibrated or cal-
culated values.
The FPEIS provides considerable flexibility for the identification of chem-
ical species when data are to be encoded. This flexibility is in recogni-
tion of the fact that there presently exists a variety of ways to identify
a particular element or compound. The chemical ID used in reporting chemi-
cal data is likely to be one with which the user is most familiar. A user's
June 1978
-------
RM-2.2-7
familiarity with a chemical ID scheme will be due largely to the nature of
the project on which he is working* The FPEIS enables users to choose from
among four chemical ID schema when they encode their data. These are the
SAROAD/SOTDAT-i/ system, the Chemical Abstracts Services (CAS) Registration
Numbers,' the Multimedia Environmental Goals (MEG) for Environmental Assess-
ment Numbers,~ and the EPA Environmental Assessment Level 1 Fractions.
Each scheme has a unique entry code which will identify the type of chemical
ID encoded to the FPEIS.
Where possible, the preferred ID is the CAS Registration Number; however,
any of the four may be used.
While the input protocol requires that a specific chemical ID be used,
the FPEIS SERIES and SUMMARY Reports will give the name of the chemical
species as well as additional pertinent data. A typical SERIES Report is
given in Section 5.2 of this Reference Manual.
General types of chemical analysis methods have been identified for the
FPEIS. A standard one- or two-character alphabetic code is used to iden-
tify the chemical analysis method when the data are encoded. As with the
chemical ID's, the complete name of the analysis method will be given on
output and not the alphabetic code.

2.2.5 Particle Size Measurement Equipment and Data
This group of data elements provides identification of the measurement
instrument or method, specific run data, and sampling conditions. Measure-
ment instruments are defined in standard nomenclature (see Section 2.1.6
of the User Guide, EPA-600/8-78-006) by generic class and type. Indication
is given of the general size range covered by the equipment and, for impac-
tors, a description of the collection substrate and its specifications.
Comments on the measurement are in text form where details of equipment
calibration methods or protocol can also be included.
Among the sampling conditions identified in this group of data elements
are the temperature, pressure, and percent moisture of the gas stream. For
in situ sampling, the gas temperature and stack pressure are the same for
both the sampling and measurement locations (data cards D03 and 101, re-
spectively). However, for an ex situ measurement instrument, the gas tem-
perature and stack pressure at the measurement location are the conditions
at which the instrument was operating.
Particle size distribution data are entered as mass fractions or number
fractions in order of decreasing particle diameter. The class boundary di-
ameters are given along with whether the diameters are obtained from cali-
bration or from calculations. Designation of Stokes, classical aerodynamic,
or aerodynamic impaction diameter is required.
June 1978
-------
RM-2.2-9
When the maximum particle size (upper boundary) is unknown, some arbitrary
value (e.g., 100 |im) may be used. If the last stage represents a filter,
and the lower boundary is not known, then an assumed value, usually the
filter's outpoint, is entered into the data. For example, cascade impac-
tors have a finite number of stages which break a continuous particle size
distribution into a series of discrete particle size intervals. Each mass
or number fraction corresponds to a particle size interval, thus resulting
in an extra particle size diameter entered for each size distribution.
The data are given in terms of mass concentrations per size interval (i.e.,
micrograms per dry normal cubic meter) or number concentrations per size
interval (i.e., number per cubic centimeter). By assuming the particles
to be spherical and by using a required value for particle density, output
may be obtained which includes calculation of mass and number size distri-
butions. All particle concentrations entered into the FPEIS should be re-
ported on the basis of 20ฐC and 1 atm pressure. This is the SI standard
temperature and pressure and should not be confused with the metric equiv-
alent of the English units (e.g., 21ฐC and 1 atm).

BM-2.3-1
2.3 Derivation of Particle Size Distribution Equations
Aerosols can be characterized in a number of different ways depending upon
the particular area of interest. For example, in the field of air pollu-
tion, concentrations and size distributions based on aerosol mass are of
most interest. An FPEIS output option provides concentration and size dis-
tributions based on particle mass or number. Moreover, these distributions
are provided on both a differential and a cumulative basis.
Although there are a variety of data reduction techniques in the litera-
ture, a simple, general and straightforward procedure has been adopted.
Each run consists of several classes or stages. The raw data generally
are mass or number concentrations in each class and the upper and lower
Stokes, classical aerodynamic, or aerodynamic impaction boundary diame-
ters. For example, in the case of impactors, the mass collected on each
stage per unit volume of gas sampled and the effective cut-off diameter
of each stage are available. The upper boundary for the first stage and
lower boundary for the final filter can usually be estimated.
The FPEIS allows the encoder to enter particle diameters based on either
the Stokes, classical aerodynamic, or aerodynamic impaction diameter defi-
nition. Although only one particle definition is used for data input, the
SERIES Report will include diameter values based on all three definitions.
The equations used for these conversions are shown in Table 2.3-1. Because
the unknown diameter appears on both sides of these equations, an iterative
technique is needed to perform the conversions.

The slip correction factor, as used in the particle diameter definition
equations, is given by:
C(D) = 1 + [1.246 + 0.42 exp(-0.87 D/2X)] (1)
where X = mean free path of gas molecules, and
C(D) = 1 + 0.162/D for air at standard temperature and
pressure (20ฐC and 1 atm)
The equations and definitions used to describe the mass and number con-
centrations are as follows:
D. = particle diameter midpoint (M-m) (upper boundary x
lower boundary)
AM. = mass in lAg/rrr within the class
= -j:D.3pAN. (2)
AN. = number of particles per cubic centimeter within
the class (No./cm^)
The underlying assumption that all the particles are spherical is, in many
cases, not valid. For nonspherical particles, the encoder must use a shape
factor whose value depends upon the definition of the diameter of the non-
spherical particle itself.

The distributions AM/Alog Dae and AN/Alog Dae are usually displayed
on a semi- log graph with the distribution function as the ordinate and
log Dae as the abscissa.
The cumulative size distributions are calculated by summing mass or num-
ber concentrations in the classes below the class of interest and divid-
ing it by the total concentration.

3.0 Introduction
This section provides definitions for all data elements contained in the
FPEIS. Specific data input instructions and encoding criteria are given
in the User Guide.-
Standard nomenclature is specified for certain data elements. For exam-
ple, on page 3.1.1-1, the Source Classification Codes from the NEDS Sys-
21
tern- are used for information related to source description (word de-
scriptions, not numeric codes). Other standard nomenclature for data are
discussed in detail in Section 3.2. All FPEIS data are reported in metric
units. While every attempt has been made to conform to SI (International
System of Units), for clarity other metric units have been used in some
places. This protocol has been developed in an attempt to standardize and
categorize the input data to the FPEIS. Such standardization will allow
data from different test series to be compared or used without the need
for costly conversions. In addition, the use of standard nomenclature will
greatly enhance the users' ability to retrieve data from the FPEIS. This
retrieval capability is more fully explained in Section 4.0 of this manual,
_!/ "Fine Particle Emissions Information System User Guide," EPA-600/8-78-006.

1135, NTIS No. PB 212-231, March 1973.

The protocol provides a system which is extremely flexible, yet standard-
ized. Establishment of these parameters in this manner will allow for ex-
pansion, modification, and additional capabilities for these particular
portions of the FPEIS. As the system grows, users may obtain the widest
possible spectrum of information in a common format.

3.1 Data Elements and Definitions
Data element definitions are grouped in the following subsections gener-
ally as discussed in Section 2.2. These definitions identify the particu-
lar data element and give an example of a typical value. Data elements
which require the use of FPEIS standard nomenclature are identified in
Section 3.2.

RM-3.2-1
3.2 Standard Nomenclature
Computerized information systems require that some standardization of
data be present in order for specific data selection to be made* Comput-
ers search for and select data by comparing the selected value to a
known value. When alphanumeric characters are used, such as in the name
of a control device, the known value and the selected value must match
exactly. For example, if a search is made for the value "ESP," all en-
tries in the data base whose value is "ESP" will be selected; however,
entries having the value "ELECTEDSTATIC PRECIPITATOR" will not, although
it is technically correct.
To ensure that uniform selection criteria are possible, the FPEIS uses
standard nomenclature for certain data elements. The permitted values
for these data elements are given in the FPEIS User Guide (Section
2.1.6). Whenever data from one of these data elements are requested,
it is essential that correct spelling be used or the request will fail.
Data elements in the FPEIS data base which require the use of standard
nomenclature are given in Table 3.2-1.

3.3 Use of Metric Units
It is EPA policy to use metric units in all publications. Consistent with
this policy, the FPEIS uses metric units throughout. Every attempt has
been made to use SI (International System of Units) protocol; however,
some data elements are given in the metric equivalent of their English
units for clarity. For example, the SI unit for pressure is the pascal
(Pa). The FPEIS reports pressure in units of millimeters of mercury (mm
Hg) which is analogous to the more common inches of mercury (in. Hg).
The specific units in which a particular data element should be encoded
are given in the FPEIS User Guide (Section 2.1.6).

4.0 Introduction
In order to simplify the retrieval of data from the FPEIS data base, a
catalog of predefined (or "canned") programs has been developed as a user
aid. Each program or procedure is identified by a unique number and is
called a System Request Command, or SRC. The SRC's will allow users to ob-
tain reports without having special expertise in either UNIVAC data pro-
cessing or SYSTEM 2000 data base management system natural language. This
feature will greatly enhance the usefulness and usability of the FPEIS to
a wide audience of users.
Each entry in the SRC catalog is identified by the unique SRC number and
by the title of the activity to be performed. Since most SRC's will be ap-
plicable to both demand and batch processing, step-by-step procedures for
executing the SRC in both modes are given in the User Guide. For demand
processing, it is assumed that the user has successfully established com-
munications with the UNIVAC 1110 computer as described in the User Guide.
It is assumed that batch users have established communications with the
UNIVAC 1110 through a remote job entry terminal or have the capability of
submitting jobs locally at the National Computer Center at Research Triangle
Park, North Carolina.
This section contains abstracts of the SRC's currently available to the
FPEIS user community. As new SRC's are developed and made available to
users, this section will be updated.

Title; FPEIS SERIES Report
The FPEIS SERIES Report (SRC-1) is the basic report for the FPEIS. The
only input parameter required by the SERIES Report is the unique test ser-
ies number which identifies the particular test series of interest. The
SERIES Report lists all of the data contained in the test series in sub-
series and run number order. A typical SERIES Report is given on the fol-
lowing pages and is discussed below.
The first page of the SERIES Report lists the data pertaining to the
source, the test series remarks, and the control device. Depending upon
the number of control devices in series on the gas stream and the number
of design specifications given, these data may carry over to page 2. The
next page begins with data from the subseries level* The data contained
here are, in order, test characteristics, control device operating param-
eters, particulate mass train results, particulate physical properties,
bioassay results, and chemical composition data. Following these data,
all data at the run level are given. The SERIES Report uses the particle
concentrations and stage boundaries stored in the data base to calculate
a particle size distribution as well as DM/DlogD, DN/DlogD, and CUMULATIVE
MASS % LESS THAN SIZE. Usually, one run will be reported on a single page.
The total SERIES Report, then, will be of varying length, depending upon
the number of runs and subseries.

4.2 SCR Number; SRC-2
Title; FPEIS SUMMARY Report
The FPEIS SUMMARY Report (SRC-2) provides a listing of all data in the
data base for a specific source category in SERIES Report format. Allow-
able source category values are given in the User Guide. The data are or-
dered by test series number within the given source category; that is,
the SUMMARY Report consists of several SERIES Reports for the same source
category. (See Section 4.1 for an example of a SERIES Report.)
The SUMMARY Report produces a large volume of computer output, possibly
several thousand pages. There are several restrictions on the use of this
SRC which are discussed in Section 5.0 of the User Guide.

RM-4.3-1
4.3 SRC Number: SRG-3
Title; Fractional Penetration Program (PENTRA)
The Fractional Penetration Program PENTRA (SRC-3) enables users to calcu-
late the efficiency of fine particle control devices (expressed as penetra-
tion) for specific test series, subseries, and runs. The FPEIS PENTRA has
been adapted from a series of data reduction procedures developed for im-
pactor measurements by Southern Research Institute. FPEIS PENTRA is, how-
ever, independent of measurement equipment since equipment-dependent param-
eters have already been accommodated when the data are first loaded into
the FPEIS data base.
The input requirements for FPEIS PENTRA are very simple. First, it is as-
sumed that the user has access to and has studied the SERIES report (see
SRC-1) prior to executing this program. The user will identify the inlet
and outlet runs to be compared by specifying the inlet subseries and run,
and the outlet subseries and run. The capability also exists to enable the
user to average groups of inlet or outlet runs in order to obtain composite
data.
The PENTRA program will retrieve the specified data from the data base.
The mass (or number) concentrations and stage boundary diameters will be
used to calculate cumulative mass loadings and differential size distribu-
tions. A curve is fitted to the inlet and the outlet values of the cumula-
tive mass concentrations less than the stage diameter versus the diameter.
June 1978
-------
RM-4.3-2
Next, the derivative of each of these curves is calculated at specified
diameters and the average and standard deviation of the differential mass
distributions are calculated. The control device efficiency (expressed as
penetration) is determined by comparing the two curves at the same diam-
eter.
The output from PENTRA will include basic process and control device data,
and a tabulation of the inlet and outlet data. A computerized plot of con-
trol device efficiency as a function of particle size will be given for
each of three types of boundary definitions used in the FPEIS; e.g., Stokes,
classical aerodynamic, and aerodynamic impaction.
(Example to be added at a later date.)

4-.4 SRC Number; SRC-4
Title; TALLY WHERE, TALLY ALL
One of the command features of SYSTEM 2000 natural language is the TALLY
command. This command enables a user to determine the frequency of occur-
rence of a particular data element and how many unique values it assumes*
The TALLY command actually has two options: the TALLY/EACH and the TALLY/
ALL. The TALLY/EACH option produces a list of each unique value for the
specified element along with the frequency of occurrence for that unique
value. The TALLY/ALL option, on the other hand, lists only the minimum and
maximum unique values, not each value.
The natural language TALLY command is limited to key data elements; that
is, those which have been specifically identified for sorting keys. To
broaden the applicability of the TALLY command for the FPEIS, SRC-4 has
been developed to provide the TALLY WHERE and TALLY ALL commands. The out-
put is the same as for the TALLY/EACH and TALLY/ALL commands, respectivelyi
SRC-4 does, however, allow the user to qualify the data element to be tal-
lied. Examples of the TALLY WHERE and TALLY ALL commands are given on the
following pages.

4.5 SRC Number; SRC-5
Title; PRINT WHERE
The PRINT WHERE command (SRC-5) enables the user to screen data in the
FPEIS while searching for a specific piece of information; that is, it aids
data searching by allowing users to move from general to more specific se-
lection criteria. This concept is best illustrated by an example: a user
wants to know if there are any data in the FPEIS from copper smelters that
use electrostatic precipitators as control devices. The PRINT WHERE command
will enable the user to obtain a list of test series numbers that meet the
given selection criteria. The user may then obtain SERIES reports for each
test series number using SRC-1.
In using the PRINT WHERE command, the user has available a variety of data
elements to select for both sorting and qualification. Up to three levels
of qualification are permitted. For example, a user may print the measure-
ment equipment method/name where the test series number equals a given value
and the subseries number equals a given value and the run number equals a
given value.
The following example illustrates the use of the PRINT WHERE command. Suppose
that a user wishes to know which of the first 10 test series does not include
chemical data. In addition, he wishes the output to be ordered by test series
number. The output shown below would be the result of the proper use of SRC-5.

4.6 SRC Number; SRC-6
Title; Chemical Data Search (CHEMSEARCH)
The CHEMSEARCH command (SRC-6) enables the user to search all or parts of
the FPEIS data base for the presence of a particular chemical species. The
user must supply a chemical identification number, and, if he wishes to
search only a part of the data base, he must also specify the test series
number(s). Chemical ID's permitted include SAROAD/SOTDAT, Multi-Media Envi-
ronmental Goals (MEG'S), Chemical Abstracts Services Registration Numbers,
and Level 1 Fractions.
The output from SRC-6 will identify the particular test series in which the
chemical species of interest appears. The user may then retrieve the SERIES
report using SRC-1.
The following is an example output of SRC-6 in which the user was interested
in those test series which include information about lead, with a SAROAD
number of 2128. The entire data base was to be searched.

16. ABSTRACT Tne report jg a basic reference manual on the Fine Particle Emissions
Information System (FPEIS), a computerized database on primary fine particle
emissions to the atmosphere from stationary point sources. The FPEIS is a compo-
nent of the Environmental Assessment Data Systems (EADS) which is designed to aid
researchers in environmental assessment and fine particle control technojogy devel-
opment activities. The FPEIS will contain source test data including particle size
distributions; chemical, physical, and bioassay testing results performed on parti-
culate samples; design and typical operating data on particulate control systems
applied; process descriptions and the sources; and descriptions of the sampling
equipment and techniques employed. The FPEIS, a successor to the MRI Fine Parti-
cle Inventory developed in 1971, report describes in detail the data types contained in
the database. It identifies and discusses the input data requirements and protocol. A
detailed catalog of analytical procedures available to users is discussed, and a list
of the source types presently contained in the database is given.
