Fundamentals of Air Dispersion Modeling

In this flagship course, students receive a thorough introduction to air dispersion modeling theory and application. Topics of discussion include the regulatory requirements for modeling, modeling study design, and U.S. EPA modeling guidelines and protocol.

AERMOD Modeling Computer Laboratory

This two-day course to provide hands-on instruction on the use of AERMOD, the U.S. EPA's preferred computer model recommended for estimation of ambient impacts of air pollutants emitted from industrial sources. Students will gain experience using the multitude of productivity tools in BREEZE AERMOD.

The course will also cover how to process results for the new short-term NO₂ and SO₂ standards using the brand-new tool built into BREEZE 3D Analyst.

Advanced Spreadsheet Functionality for Air Quality Compliance

Unleash the hidden power inside Microsoft Excel to streamline your environmental tasks and reduce the amount of time and potential human errors in future permitting,

Air Pollution Emission Management

This three-day course will enhance your technical understanding for air pollution emission sources from process industries. Tops include emission quantification methods for various types of sources (e.g., heaters, flares, compressor engines, tanks, process emissions) as well as pollution reduction via source control technologies and good engineer practices. Attendees will learn the basics of quantifying emissions from typical industrial sources, gain the basic understanding of the formation of particulate and gaseous emissions, and how to minimize these emissions with appropriate chemical/physical mechanisms. The sources for obtaining further information on these topics will be provided for future application. The course also reviews physical, chemical, and engineering principles of emissions quantification and control devices.

Modeling Analysis for Flammable/Toxic Releases

This course focuses on source analysis and air quality impact assessments for industrial accidental releases. The course covers model assumptions, strengths, and shortcomings. Attendees will learn to select analysis strategies and reliably critique work.

Emissions Quantification and Reporting

This course provides an overview of emissions inventory requirements, emission quantification methodologies, and the applications of various emission programs. Learn to apply the best approach to quantify emissions from common industrial processes.

Stack Testing Workshop

This workshop introduces EPA stack testing methods and their observation checklists as well as discussions of managing stack testing requirements, observing stack testing (e.g. trial burns), verifying calculation of emission data, validating analytical data, and various sampling methods. The workshop provides the fundamental skills necessary for meeting stack testing regulatory requirements and evaluating the data for decision-making purposes.

Managing Continuous Emissions Monitoring Systems

This course presents regulatory requirements and technical issues necessary to manage a successful continuous emissions monitoring (CEM) program. The course highlights Federal requirements, sampling and analytical methods, and certification and quality assurance requirements. Techniques for specifying, evaluating, and purchasing CEM systems will also be discussed. The course is designed for engineers and other technical personnel responsible for the development or regulation of CEM programs.

Practical Air Dispersion Modeling Workshop

This 3-day workshop provides both theoretical and hands on computer application of BREEZE  AERMOD GIS Pro. Course participants will gain a conceptual understanding of the modeling interface and leave with a solid foundation for conducting modeling studies.

Emission Reduction Technology & Compliance Management

The goal of this course is to provide information that will help environmental professionals to address present and future air pollution control issues. The course will enable students to be familiar with the various interrelated aspects of air pollution control, understand the operating principles of air pollution control system, and have a good understanding of some of the technical aspects of controlling air pollution.

Chemical Accidental Releases Prevention Program

This two-day course provides an overview of three key elements of a chemical accident prevention program: accidental release modeling analysis, process safety management, and emergency response system. Modelled based on the USEPA Risk Management Program (RMP) Rule, the course focused on the technical requirements of the chemical prevention program that are the most challenge part of the rule. The accidental release modeling analysis will include source term calculations, selecting appropriate models, and dispersion modeling analysis for various release scenarios for typical chemical releases. The process safety program (PSM) will provide an overview of key elements of PSM and introduce the HAZOP methodology for chemical processes. The course will conclude with an overview of the key elements of an effective emergency response system.

Dispersion Modeling for Managers - Planning & Review

This is a one-day course for environmental managers who review, manage, or use dispersion modeling as a tool for completing air quality studies as part of compliance studies or permitting submittals. The course covers the fundamentals of modeling concepts and regulatory requirements for state and federal permitting. Both screening and refined modeling tools are presented within the context of the basic physics of the atmosphere as well the practical aspects of model set up, model objectives, source characterization, meteorology, and interpretation of results. Hands on example problems give the manager a practical view of modeling and dispel the sometimes daunting science of modeling allowing a better comprehension of model differences, complicating factors, and uncertainties.

BREEZE AERMOD On-line Training

This 7 hour training course focuses on the practical use of the popular air dispersion modeling software AERMOD. AERMOD is the preferred U.S. EPA models for computing ambient impacts of air pollutants emitted from industrial sources.

Students will be provided a complimentary license of the BREEZE AERMOD Standard air quality modeling system to use during and after the class.

Students will walk away from the class with the knowledge of how to setup, execute, and analyze AERMOD model runs in an efficient manner.
