Why Not the Lab?
• Accuracy
• Cost
• Practicality
• Sample Bias and Recruitment
• New Technology is Available

Better Data Collection Methods
• Data collection is expensive– Recruiting costs from $2,000 to $100,000 per engine
– Data collection budgets have diminished dramatically
• New approach and changes in datacollection needed– Laboratory based recruitment and testing is a
compromise both in terms of sampling and geography
– Laboratory testing regimes don’t reflect real world, in-use operation of vehicles and engines

Real World vs. Lab

Measuring Emissions in the Field
• Portable emission measurement systems– Allows us to bring the lab to the car or engine and test it on
the road or in the field under normal operating conditions• These conditions are not adequately represented by laboratory driving
cycles and “correction” factors used in models
• Shows both how and where emissions are generated
– Frees us from the few laboratories around the country• We can test anywhere, any time
– Reduces problems related to sampling and modeling• Can test anything we can recruit
• Less intrusive technology increases chances of high recruitmentparticipation

Emissions Where They Occur

Technology Development
• Goals– Bring technology to market– Make accurate, accepted equipment readily available– Specify EPA needs so manufacturers can respond
• Approach– Cooperative Research and Development Agreements
• Measure gasoline and diesel emissions• Operate unattended for extended periods of time• Accuracy requirements approach lab measurement• Goal is to have commercially available products in ~6 months
– OTAQ lab and contractor development• PM and toxics measurement capability• Measurement strategy development

PM Development
• Developing related measurement capability– Proportional sampling system
– Humidity conditioning of exhaust sample
– Preclassifier
• Evaluating continuous PM monitoring– Quartz crystal microbalance
– Tapered element oscillating microbalance
• Time line– Expect prototype evaluations completed by Summer
