Abstract
This report covers wood stove testing carried out by ORD during May 2018 to June 2018. Testing and
analysis was completed as of October 2018. Three stoves of varying design and certification level were
tested using the Black Carbon Protocol developed by the International Cryosphere Climate Initiative.
The protocol specifies the determination of black carbon emissions from wood stoves. This protocol
consists of an ignition phase with hardwood (oak twigs and cordwood) followed by a pretest phase with
oak cordwood and the test phase using spruce cribs. The pretest and test phase are repeated twice for a
total of three replicates. Filter samples are collected during the ignition phase and each of the three tests
phases and the black carbon content on the filters are analyzed by a thermal optical method following
the NIOSH 870 protocol. The protocol is carried out on two consecutive days, one day under a low burn
rate condition and the other day under a high burn rate condition. Additional measurements not specified
in the protocol are made of the gas phase emissions (carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, total
hydrocarbons, and nitrogen oxides) and particle phase emissions (sampled on filters and analyzed for
particulate matter (PM) mass, elemental and organic carbon). Continuous measurements of black carbon
concentration were also made. Black carbon emission factors were calculated using a total capture
assumption as specified in the protocol. Additionally, emission factors for all pollutants for each stove
and test phase were calculated using the carbon balance assumption. Emissions of pollutants associated
with incomplete combustion (carbon monoxide, total hydrocarbons, and PM) were generally highest
from the low fire condition. The overall efficiency of each stove varied by stove type/vintage, with the
newest stove showing the highest efficiency and the oldest stove showing the lowest. Filter-based black
carbon emission factors calculated following the protocol were generally higher than those calculated
using a carbon balance emission factor calculation method. The differences in emission factors are likely
due to the adjustment to account for particle losses in the duct and sampling systems, inaccuracies in the
duct flow measurement or inaccuracies in the fuel moisture.

1.0 Introduction
Black carbon (BC) is an important pollutant linked with adverse health effects in humans. Combustion
of wood in residential appliances for heating is a major source of BC to the atmosphere in colder
climates. Although particulate matter (PM) emissions from residential wood combustion (RWC) have
been extensively studied, BC emissions have been less studied in part due to the lack of a standardized
measurement method. There are a variety of different BC measurement technologies available but there
has been no agreement by the research or regulatory communities as to the optimal measurement
method to quantify BC emissions. Consistent BC measurement methods are needed to support the
development of emissions inventories, emissions certification testing, and the assessment of the impact
of BC from RWC on air quality in colder climates.
The term "black carbon" is commonly used to refer to BC derived from many different measurement
approaches, although it is sometimes used to refer to optical based measurement techniques specifically.
The term "elemental carbon" is commonly used to refer to BC measured using a thermal optical
technique. In this report we will use BC in the general sense and to refer to the quantity measured by the
protocol, to maintain consistency with the terminology used in the protocol. However, it should be noted
that the protocol BC is measured by a thermal optical method.
The objective of this project was to determine BC emissions from wood stoves using a method
developed by the International Cryosphere Climate Initiative (ICCI), "A Protocol for Black Carbon
Emissions" (Andersen and Jespersen, 2016). This "BC protocol" was carried out on three wood stoves
of varying makes, certification levels, and sizes.
2.0	Methods
2.1	Test Facility
Testing was carried out in the wood stove test facility located in EPA's research laboratories in Research
Triangle Park, NC (Shen et al. 2017). The test facility was designed to follow EPA's method 5G
"Determination of Particulate Matter Emissions from Wood Heaters" (EPA, 2017). A diagram of the
facility is shown in Figure 1. The wood stove was installed on a scale (Ohaus, Model CD-I 1 electronic
scale, Model B250P display) to monitor weight loss of the fuel during testing. Heat from the test stove
was dissipated into the laboratory. The emissions from the stove were routed through a non-insulated
single wall black pipe chimney (Duravent Durablack) installed on each stove according to manufacturer
instructions. The chimney was connected to a double-walled insulated flue that extends 12.6 ft above the
stove. Emissions from the flue were drawn through a rectangular hood (2 ft x 4 ft) into a dilution tunnel
(6" duct, Inner Diameter = 6 in), and then through a secondary dilution tunnel (10" duct, Inner Diameter
= 10 in) that was diluted with HEPA filtered room air. Emissions were drawn through the dilution tunnel
with a variable speed blower, and the air velocity in the secondary dilution tunnel was kept at 8.79 m/s
(1730 fpm) to ensure turbulent flow in the ducts and maximize the amount of dilution achieved in the
tunnel. The draft at the hood was kept below 0.005 in of H2O (vacuum pressure) to ensure that it did not
affect the performance of the stove. Air flow through each duct was determined from measurements of
temperature, pressure, and velocity measured with Ultratech (Garner, NC) Airflow Measuring Stations.

Emissions were sampled in the chimney to allow for the calculation of stove efficiency following the
test method specified in the Canadian Standards Association (CSA) B415.1-10 "Performance testing of
solid-fuel-burning heating appliances". Emissions were also measured in the 6" duct (sampling port 1 in
Figure 1) for determination of exhaust pollutant concentrations. Filters for PM were sampled from the
10" duct (sampling port 2 in Figure 1). A tertiary dilution system was used to further reduce the PM
concentration for online instrumentation. The tertiary system sampled from the 10" duct through sample
port 3 (Figure 1) and consisted of a custom made porous probe (Lyyranen et al. 2004) and an eductor
(DI-1000, Dekati, Kangasala, Finland) leading to a sampling manifold from which multiple instruments
could draw. The sampling manifold consisted of a stainless steel pipe with multiple ports for continuous
PM instrument sampling.
2.2 Wood Stoves
Three wood stoves representing a range of technologies were tested to determine the suitability of the
BC protocol to quantify emissions from different type and size of stoves. The stove manufacturer,

2.3	Fuel
Wood stoves were tested with fuel according to the BC protocol, with seasoned hardwood (Red oak 16-
20% moisture, dry basis) used for kindling and pre-charges burned before each test charge. The test
charge consisted of seasoned spruce (Sitka spruce 16 - 20% moisture, dry basis) that were machined
into sticks (49 mm x 49 mm) and nailed into three stick cribs with spruce spacers (25 mm x 13 mm)
using stainless steel finishing nails. The cribs were of variable lengths (12 - 18"). A sample of each fuel
was analyzed for composition (ASTM D3176 Standard Practice for Ultimate Analysis of Coal and Coke
and ASTM D3172 Standard Practice for Proximate Analysis of Coal and Coke) and higher heating value
(ASTM D5865 Standard Test Method for Gross Calorific Value of Coal and Coke) by Galbraith Labs
(Knoxville, TN). The fuel moisture content was measured with a conductivity based moisture meter
(Delmhorst, J-2000 or G30) and was validated by an oven drying method (ASTM D4442-07 Standard
Test Methods for Direct Moisture Content Measurement of Wood and Wood-Base Materials).
2.4	Test Protocol
The three stoves were tested following the BC protocol for a high burn rate condition and a low burn
rate condition, which were done on separate days. Each condition consisted of four sampling phases
separated by a pre-charge phase as shown in Table 2. The amount of fuel loaded was within the range
was specified by:
Lower fuel mass limit = Firebox Volume [m3] * 101 kg/m3	Eq. 1
Upper fuel mass limit = Firebox Volume [m3] * 123 kg/m3	Eq. 2

Ignition and lighting and pre-charge phases were conducted with the air controls partially open to burn
the required amount of fuel in the required amount of time. Additional fuel was added if necessary to
meet the required amount of time for the test phase. The burn rate is specified in terms of dry fuel mass
consumed per hour for each class of stove (class I stove with <5 kW heat output, burn rate < 0.8 kg dry
fuel/hr or class II stove < 5kW heat output, burn rate <1.25 kg dry fuel/hr as described in the BC
protocol). The low fire burn rate was achieved by completely closing the stove's air controls. The high
fire burn rate was achieved by having the air controls fully open.
2.5 Emissions Measurements
The BC protocol only specifies collection conditions for quartz filter sampling. However, a range of
continuous emissions measurements were conducted and Teflon filters were collected in addition to the
quartz filters. Continuous emissions and ancillary measurements, instruments, and sampling location are
listed in Table 3.

Batch filter samples were taken with 47 mm quartz filters (QF, Pall Tissue Quartz) and a simultaneous
47 mm Teflon (TF, Pall Teflo), with a quartz back filter following to estimate the organic carbon
absorption artifact (QBF). The 47 mm filter size was a deviation from the protocol to allow for
determination of PM on the 47 mm Teflon filters. Quartz filters were baked at 800 °C oven for 10 hrs
and stored in a -65 °C freezer. After collection the quartz filters were returned to the freezer (maintained
at -40 °C) for storage. Teflon filters were equilibrated at 25 °C and 35% relative humidity for at least 24
hr before they were weighed on a microbalance (Sartorius, MC-5). Quartz filters were analyzed using an
organic carbon (OC) / elemental carbon (EC) analyzer using aNIOSH 870 temperature protocol
(Panteliadis et al., 2015) as specified in the BC protocol.
2.6 Sampling Procedures
Mass of fuel consumed was monitored during the test with an electronic scale (Ohaus, CD-I 1, B250P
Parsippany, NJ). The scale was tared before stove installation and the mass was recorded before each
batch of fuel was loaded. As required in the BC protocol, the end of the test phase was determined when
the scale reading was back to the baseline value before the test charge was loaded.
Emissions in the chimney were sampled according to the CSA B415.1-10 (2010) to be able to calculate
the energy efficiency of each stove. In this method, flue gas is sampled in the chimney through a heated
filter and condenser to measure carbon dioxide (CO2) and carbon monoxide (CO). After the first stove
(stove C) the Teflon sampling line was replaced by a heated sample line to reduce contamination from
condensed species. After the second stove (stove B) a water impinger was added between the heated
5

-------
filter and the condenser to further reduce contamination from condensed species in the sample line to the
CO and CO2 analyzers.
CO2, CO, methane (CH4), total hydrocarbons (THC), and nitrogen oxides (NOx) were also sampled in
the dilution duct (sampling port 1 in Figure 1) through a heated filter, heated pump, and heated sample
line to the back of the analyzers. Additionally, the sample passed through a condenser to the NOx
analyzer.
Dilution ratios in the 10" duct and the dilution manifold were monitored by measuring the CO2
concentration in each location. Continuous BC and PM scattering and absorption measurements were
made by sampling from the dilution manifold through Vi" flexible anti-static tubing. Additionally, the
semi-continuous OC/EC analyzer sampled from the dilution manifold.
Extractive samples were taken from an isokinetic probe to obtain Teflon and quartz filters for PM and
BC protocol filters. Filter sampling deviated from that specified in the BC protocol in that filters were
sampled from the 10" duct sampling port (sampling port 2 in Figure 1) to obtain lower particle
concentrations to reduce potential overloading of the filter. Additionally, multiple filters were taken
during each test to further reduce filter loading. A three-way ball valve was added upstream of the filter
holders to allow for rapid change out of filters for the final stove (stove A) tested. A rotary vane pump
(Gast, Benton Harbor, MI) was used to pull flow through each filter sample. Flow was controlled with a
digital mass flow controller (Sierra Instruments, Monterey CA).
2.7 Data analysis
BC emission factors (EFs) were calculated for filter samples following the BC protocol. The BC
protocol relies on the total capture emission factor methodology:
T7T7 	 1.82 (CflcQlO" duct)0'83	*7
BC - 	mfuel/ 		h
-------
C02, CO, THC (assuming CH4), and BC over the background mass concentration, fc is the fraction of
carbon in the fuel.
Continuous emissions data was averaged over the test period to obtain EFs for each pollutant over the
test phase. When multiple batch filter samples were taken during a single test phase the concentrations
for each filter sample were combined using a time weighted average to arrive at a test phase averaged
EF. Stove efficiency was calculated according to CSAB415.1-10 (2010).
2.8 Deviations from the BC Protocol
Several deviations from the protocol were necessary to accomplish sampling objectives using available
sampling equipment. The complete list of deviations from the protocol are specified in Table 4. The
majority of the deviations were associated with the filter sampling to accommodate the smaller filter
holder (47 mm) and Teflon filter size used for PM measurement. The sampling location, nozzle size, and
sample flow rate were adjusted to reduce the sample volume to prevent filter overloading. These
deviations were made to preserve isokinetic PM sampling conditions and likely had minimal if any
impact on the PM emissions measurements. Initial testing resulted in filters that appeared overloaded,
therefore more than one filter was taken during the test phase to further reduce filter loading. Taking
more than one filter per tests results in times when the PM emissions are not being sampled while the
filters are being replaced. By not capturing this time the PM emission factors may be biased high or low,
depending upon how the PM emissions during the switchover period compare to the rest of the test. To
determine the potential impact from this missing period the test phase average was compared to the filter
collection period average for the chimney CO2 and CO concentrations. The collection time weighted
average CO2 was 97.5% the test phase average with an r2 of 0.99 and the CO was 93% with an r2 of
0.99. This indicates that the PM emission factors may be biased slightly low when multiple filters are
taken during a test phase. To avoid the uncertainty introduced by the filter switchover period future
testing should be done either with larger filters or from the dilution manifold to allow for a single filter
per test phase without being overloaded.

Despite reducing the sample flow rate and sampling time, filters were heavily loaded with PM,

particularly OC, resulting in off-scale readings during the portion of the thermal optical analysis when
the carbon is evolved under helium gas. To reduce the concentration of OC measured by the analyzer a
smaller punch diameter was used. Table 5 shows the filter concentrations from 5 filters which were
analyzed with both punch sizes. OC concentrations on exposed filters (QF) analyzed with the small
punch were 10% larger than when a larger punch was used. The EC concentration was 27 - 45% lower
when a small punch was used, demonstrating that off-scale OC measurements also impacted the EC
measurement, despite being within the instrument range for EC. When the OC concentration was within
the instrument's measurement range, the punch size had negligible impact on the measurement.
However, repeat punches of different sizes within the instrument measurement range were only
available for the back up quartz filters (QBF), which did not have any EC.

Another major deviation was from the target low burn rate. Despite closing all air controls, burn rates
remained higher than the target value. The older stove (A) had only minimal air controls consisting of a
grate on the front and a damper on the flue. Moreover, the stove front door had no seal and allowed
additional air flow into the firebox. This resulted in burn rates greatly elevated from the target value of
1.25 kg/hr. As shown in the stove results below, low burn rates generally resulted in larger emission
factors of pollutants associated with incomplete combustion (CO, THC, and PM). Therefore, the
emission factors for these pollutants for the low burn condition on stove C are likely lower than they
would be had we been able to achieve the low burn condition.
3.0 Quality Assurance/Quality Control
This project was performed under an approved Category B quality assurance project plan (QAPP) titled

4.0 Results
Summary parameters for each stove are presented in the following tables. Data from each test are
presented as the average and standard deviation of three test charges. Individual phase values are
presented in Appendix B. Summary of testing parameters are shown in Table 7. The test charges were
moderately repeatable with relative standard deviation in burn rates of less than 20%. The pre-charge
burn rates tended to have greater variability as it was more difficult to determine the stove settings
needed to achieve the proper burn rate.

The average emission factor for the major pollutants for each stove and each condition are summarized
in Table 8 and Figure 2. The complete emission factor data set is included in Appendix D. Phase
concentrations are shown in Appendix C. Emissions of pollutants generated from incomplete
combustion (e.g. CO, THC, and PM) were generally greatest from the low burn rate for all three stoves.
Emission factors of pollutants associated with flaming combustion (e.g. CO2 and BC) were generally
highest from the high burn rate as well as during the ignition and lighting phase. Stove A emission
factors varied little among the low and the high fire conditions as there was minimal control of air flow
into the stove. The door to stove A was unsealed and the air control was a sliding grate, therefore the air
flow into the stove was about the same for all conditions. The emission factors for the low fire condition
for stove B and C was widely variable, since it depended on how long it took for the load to transition
from smoldering to flaming combustion. This transition time is likely dependent upon the placement of
fuel in the stove and the configuration of the fuel load, which despite using crib wood, was highly
variable.

Figure 2. Emission factors for the major pollutants by stove and test phase. Ignition phases are the average
relative difference between the repeat ignition phases.
BC emission factors were calculated by several different methods: total capture, carbon balance, and
online sampling/measurement. The total capture method is specified in the BC protocol and requires
accurate measurement of the duct velocity, sample velocity, and mass loss during the test. The carbon
balance requires measurement of all carbon containing pollutants and assumes that all the carbon in the
fuel is emitted in the exhaust. The online method uses the carbon balance for calculating the emission
11

-------
factor, but relies on the online BC measurement from the AE-33 as opposed to the filter measurement of
EC used in both the BC protocol and the BC carbon balance emission factor. For many of the tests PM
emissions were not collected for the entire test duration because multiple filter samples were taken. PM
sampling stopped while filters were switched out. Online measurements also had some discontinuities
during testing. The PASS-3 periodically stops sampling to conduct a filtered air check to adjust the
instrument baseline and the aethalometer stops sampling when the attenuation at the current
measurement location becomes large and advances the to a new measurement location on the filter tape.
The BC protocol emission factors are generally higher than the other two methods (0.9 - 3.8 times
greater, see Table 9). However, for most tests the BC protocol and the online BC emission factors were
similar, with a few tests skewing the average ratio high (Figure 3). The protocol calls for an adjustment
to account for particle losses in the duct and sampling system, which increases the emission factor. The
particle losses in the duct and sampling system are likely to be different for each test facility and may
change during testing as particles deposit on the duct walls and the sample probes. Therefore, the
assumption of constant particle losses may introduce error in the emission factor from one facility to the
next as well as from one test to the next. Further study of the particle losses in test facilities is needed to
determine the magnitude and the variation of particle losses to accurately assess the impact of this
correction on the BC protocol emission factors.
Inaccuracies in the duct flow measurement and the fuel moisture measurement will impact the BC
protocol emission factor calculation. Differences between the filter based and online measurement may
be due to the different collection period for each as well as differences in the measurement
methodology. The BC content on the filter was determined by a thermal optical analysis as opposed to
the light attenuation measurement made in the online instrument.

Figure 3. Comparison of BC emission factors between methods.
BC content on the filter was estimated using images as described in the report "BC measurements by the
EN13240" (Danish Technological Institute, 2017). The images were taken with an iphone 6
approximately 80 mm above the filter with indoor lighting without a flash. The filter images
encompassed a variety of colors ranging from light gray, greenish brown, to black. The varying colors
made it difficult to determine the matching BC loading category using only the human eye. As an
alternative, the images were converted to grayscale using the PowerPoint view option and the grayscale
tone determined by matching to a 20-point grayscale (Appendix E). The comparison between the
grayscale and the EC content on the analyzed filter is in Figure 4.

5.0 Conclusions
Three stoves spanning a range of manufacturing year/certification status were tested using a slightly
modified ICCIBC protocol at the U.S. EPA wood stove test facility. Continuous measurements of gas
phase emissions (CO2, CO, THC, and NOx) and particle phase emissions (PM, BC) were made
throughout the test. Filter samples were collected as specified in the BC protocol to derive BC emission
factors. Most of the deviations from the BC protocol were made to address the high PM concentration
and to prevent filter overloading. Stoves with larger firebox volumes had longer test durations, which
also made it difficult to avoid overloading the filter.
ICCI BC emission factors were generally higher than those calculated using the carbon balance method,
likely due to the adjustment for particle losses included in the ICCI calculation. Further study of particle
losses is recommended to determine the impact of the test facility on the BC emission factor.
Inaccuracies in the duct flow measurement or fuel moisture may have also contributed to inaccuracies in
the BC protocol calculation. Filter-based emission factors varied from the continuous BC emission
factors, likely due to the low bias introduced by changing emissions during the filter change out period
and to differences in the measurement method. Increased dilution for filter samples would reduce the
need for multiple filter samples and reduce the uncertainty due to the filter change out period.
