Fater, Manager, Industrial Hygiene Sandra Wroblewski, Manager, Marketing sampling durations ranged between 93 and 570 minutes with m

18、ost durations longer than 6 hours. Short-term samples were taken to approximate peak exposures and ranged between 8 and 35 minutes with most sample durations within the 15-20 minute range. 1-1 API PUBL*4625 95 = 0732290 0548328 454 The long-term and short-term samples were often collected concurrent

19、ly. Therefore, if a significant exposure occurred during a specific task or special event, such as during carburetor repair or a fuel spill, the exposure is also included within the full-shift sample for those individuals also undergoing full-shift sampling. Table 1-1 presents the numbers of samples

20、 collected during the Winter Phase from mid-February to mid-April and during the Summer Phase from mid-July to mid-August. The air samples were collected according to the method described in Appendix H. Following collection the samples were shipped to the analytical laboratory for analysis according

21、 to the methods described in Appendix I. During both Winter and Summer sampling studies, there were a few cases when data from two employees were combined to represent an approximate 8-hour full-shift exposure. These cases resulted when the first employee completed a partial shift and was relieved b

22、y a second employee or, in a couple of cases, declined to participate during the second part of the day. In most cases, the sampling pump was transferred to a second station employee who completed the shift and a second sampling tube was attached to the second employee. Each set of these samples was

23、 combined in a time-weighted manner prior to use in statistical calculations to generate a full-shift equivalent exposure that was comparable with other data. In several other cases, a single sampling tube was used to measure the exposure of two employees. After completing the sampling on the first

24、employee, the same sampling train was transferred to the second employee for the remainder of the shift. During the Winter Phase, 95 long-term exposures and 105 Short-term exposures were sampled. One of the long-term exposures, represented by samples AZ4-02A 5 stations in Northern New Jersey and 2 i

25、n Connecticut. In the summer, 6 service stations; 4 stations in Northern New Jersey and 2 in Connecticut. 3 Service Stations in Oregon 3 truck drivers were monitored during bulk fuel deliveries.

26、90 0548330 002 = OXYGENATE AND AROMATIC CONTENT OF BULK LIQUID FUELS At each station, two samples of each octane grade of dispensed gasoline were collected. One buik sample set was submitted to determine volatility by determining the Reid Vapor Pressure (RVP). The second set was initially analyzed b

27、y mass spectrophotometry (MS) to identi9 the species of oxygenate and the aromatic content and subsequently analyzed by gas chromatography (GC) to determine the percentage of each component. Table 1-2 summarizes the Winter and Summer data on oxygenate content. The buik analysis data is presented in

28、Appendix A. The bulk sample analysis was used to determine which oxygenates were present and which should be subject to analysis in the air samples. Although the percent of the oxygenate was measured, the purpose of this analysis was only to determine which oxygenate was present. Since the oxygenate

29、s are more volatile than the remainder of the gasoline, this analysis should - not be considered a definitive quantitative indicator of the amount of oxygenate which had been added to the fuel. In two cases during the Winter Phase, OR1 (88 octane) and MN2 (92 octane), the bulk sample submitted to th

30、e laboratory had leaked into the shipment case. However, a sufficient quantity of fuel remained to conduct the GC/MS analysis. The loss of part of the sample may have affected the character of the sample. Although 16 stations were initially included in the study, an additional station was added (as

31、discussed on page 1-2) and a bulk sample was analyzed fkom this station during the Winter Phase. 1 -4 API PUBL*4625 95 0732290 0548131 T49 = Service Stations Az- 1 Az-2 Az-3 Az-4 MN-2 MN-3 MN-4 NY-1 NY-2 NY-3 NY-4 NY-6 NY-7 NY-9 OR- 1 OR-2 OR-3 Service stations Az-1s Az-2s Az-3 s Az-4s MN-2s MN-3 s

35、 identified fuels from nine service stations which contained ethanol and fuels from eight service stations which contained MTBE. In addition to ethanol and MTBE, the fuels of three service stations contained TAME in relatively low amounts (0.11 - 3.7%). Where TAME was detected, MTBE was the main oxy

36、genate . present. The results of the bulk fuel analysis for the Summer Phase identified fuels from two service stations which contained ethanol and fuels fkom seven service stations which contained MTBE. Again, fuels from three service stations contained TAME in relatively low amounts (0.1 - 2.2%).

37、Where TAME was detected, MTBE was the main oxygenate present. As expected with the end of the winter CO oxyfuel program, generally lower oxygenate concentrations and fewer numbers of stations with oxygenated fuels were present in the summer months, although ethanol levels in gasohol fuels increased.

38、 Oxygenates are used during the summer season to increase fuel octane. The results of the aromatic analyses are summarized by geographical area in Table 1-3. The complete buk analysis data is provided as Appendix A. Oxygenates and aromatic components detected in the bulk liquid fuels were assayed in

39、 the air samples with the exception of p-xylene, which is included in the total xylene result. 1-6 API PUBL*1i625 75 0732290 0548333 833 = Geographic Area Southwest Midwest Northeast Northwest Geographic Area Southwest Midwest Northeast Northwest TABLE 1-3 _ - Bulk Liquid Samples - Aromatic Content

42、wind speed, wind direction, relative humidity and barometric pressure were recorded at each station on each day of the study. An electronic weather station was set up on the service station property. Temperature and relative humidity measurements were recorded both inside (Ti, Hi) near the mechanic

43、and outside (To, Ho) near the refueling attendants. For the outside measurements, the temperature and relative humidity probes were placed out of direct sunlight (a radiant energy source). The 1-7 windspeed and direction were recorded, as was the average barometric pressure (inches of mercury). Baro

44、metric pressures during the winter phase were obtained from the National Weather Service for the date and location of sampling. During the summer sampling phase the barometric pressure was recorded on site. The meteorological data are summarized in Table 1-4. The daily averages are presented in Appe

49、POR RECOVERY SYSTEMS To help control gasoline vapor emissions, many service station pump nozzles are equipped with Stage II vapor recovery systems. Stage II vapor recovery systems capture vapors displaced from the vehicle fuel tank during refueling (Stage I systems capture vapors displaced from service station storage tanks during tank truck fuel deliveries). The presence of “Stage II Vapor Recovery Systems“ was recorded (Table 1-5) during the study. The presence of Stage II systems would be expected to lower potential exposure in refueling attendants since they often work in
