摘要: |
On September 30 through October 3, 2002, National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) researchers evaluated control of carbon monoxide (CO) emissions and exposures at Callville Bay Marina on Lake Mead, Nevada. Evaluations involved 3 houseboats rafted together, each having 9-foot, vertical exhaust stacks that were connected to gasoline-powered generators. The vertical exhaust stacks were designed to comply with the recently revised American Boat and Yacht Council's (ABYC) Standard P-1 for generator exhaust titled, 'Installation of Exhaust Systems for Propulsion and Auxiliary Engines.' Several production emission control devices (ECDs) with substantial hours of use were also evaluated. These ECDs had been retrofitted onto two different houseboats' gasoline-powered generators. |
