What is Method 17?

Determination of Particulate Matter Emissions From Stationary Sources

Particulate matter is withdrawn isokinetically from the source and collected on a glass fiber
filter maintained at stack temperature. The PM mass is determined gravimetrically after the
removal of uncombined water.

For more information and documents about Method 17, please consult the EPA's Method 17 webpage.
