Stack Emission monitoring is referred to as Stack emission you looking for.
testing, stack emission monitoring, stack sampling, Source
Emission Monitoring or Source Testing. It is a process to
measure the emission of industrial waste or pollutants
emitted into the atmosphere. The pollutants emitted from
the stack can be solid, gaseous, liquid organic or inorganic.

What is Stack?
The stack is nothing but chimney which is used to disperse
the hot air at a great height, emissions & particulate
matters that are emitted from the various types of stacks
like boiler, �ue gas etc. At these heights, the polluted air
disperses in a very large area so that concentrations at the
ground are within permissible limits and not harmful for
humans, animals and vegetation.


There are several types of �ue-gas stack based on fuel
injections. Eg. DG set stack, �ue gas stack, process stack,
furnace stack, boiler stack, chimney etc.

CPCB guidelines for Stack

Height
Chimney, Boiler, DG set, DG exhaust pipe etc. Stack height
calculation plays an important role in determination of
dispersion of pollutants in upper level of air relevant to
local building height.

Chimney / Boiler/ Stack Height Calculation

Formula

H = h + 0.2 * √KVA

Where,

H = Total height of stack in metre

h = Height of the building in metres where the generator

set is installed

KVA = Total generator capacity of the set in KVA

Based on the above formula stack height to be provided

can be categorized as follow: This is inline with
CPCB guidelines for stack height. 

It is the most Important that sample collected must truly
represent the conditions of �ue gas stack. Accurate
measurement of Pressure, moisture, humidity, gases,
velocity, temperature and Particulate matter is required
during Industrial stack monitoring procedure.
It is also required to measure accurately rate of �ow gases
accurate of weight and volume of samples collected.
Also When a wide range of particles are present in emission
�ow, there is a possibility that only smaller particles can
enter into sampler inlet and larger particles may not enter
due to their inertia. So to avoid this situation Calculating
isokinetic ratio i.e. Isokinetic Stack Sampling method can be
helpful to achieve accurate results in gas boiler emission
monitoring.

Dear Abhishek,

The Central Pollution Control Board, New

Delhi evolved the following formula for
calculating minimum stack height to be
provided to each Diesel Generation set for
industrial, commercial, domestic and other
purposes.

H = h + 0.2 * capacity of DG in KVA.

H = Total height of stack in meter.
h = Height of the building in meters where
the generator set is installed.
KVA = Total generator capacity in the set of
KVA.

For Pin Oil and IPA (Isopropyl Alcohol), the

speci�c stack monitoring parameters and
standards may vary depending on the local
regulations and guidelines. However, some
common parameters that are typically
monitored include particulate matter (PM),
volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and
combustion gases such as carbon monoxide
(CO) and nitrogen oxides (NOx). The
standards for these parameters are usually
set by environmental agencies to ensure
compliance with air quality standards and to
minimize the impact of emissions on human
health and the environment.

Regarding the requirements for ducts and

fans in the context of stack emissions, it is
important to ensure that the ducting system
is properly designed to e�ectively capture
and convey the emissions from the source
to the stack. The ducts should be sized
appropriately to maintain a consistent �ow
and minimize pressure drop. Additionally,
the fans should be adequately sized and
positioned to provide su�cient air�ow and
ensure proper stack exhaust.

It is crucial to consult the speci�c

regulations and guidelines applicable to the
region where the Pin Oil and IPA emissions
are being monitored to determine the exact

stack monitoring parameters, standards, and
 requirements for the ducts and fans.
Compliance with these requirements helps
to maintain good air quality and minimize
the environmental impact of industrial
operations.

Several factors are considered when

determining the frequency of stack emission
testing. These include regulatory
requirements, industry standards, the nature
of the emissions, the type of pollutants
emitted, the operating conditions of the
facility, and the potential impact on the
surrounding environment and public health.
Regulatory agencies often set speci�c
guidelines or mandates regarding the
frequency of stack emission testing based
on the type of industry and the pollutants
emitted. Additionally, factors such as the
size of the facility, the type of equipment
used, the volume of emissions, and any
previous compliance history can in�uence
the frequency of testing. The goal is to
ensure regular monitoring and assessment
of emissions to maintain compliance with
environmental regulations and identify any
potential risks or deviations that may require
corrective actions.

HI Ankush,

The frequency of DG stack monitoring and

noise monitoring for a 300kVA DG (Diesel
Generator) can vary depending on the
speci�c regulations and guidelines set by
local authorities and environmental
agencies. However, as a general guideline,
stack emissions from the DG may need to be
monitored annually or biannually to ensure
compliance with air quality standards. Noise
monitoring, on the other hand, may be
conducted periodically, such as every three
to six months, to assess the noise levels and
take necessary measures to mitigate any
excessive noise pollution. It is important to
consult local regulations and guidelines to
determine the speci�c monitoring frequency
requirements for DG stack emissions and
noise levels in a particular area.

Please refer to your Consent received from
