Description
Diesel particulate matter (DPM) poses significant carcinogenic risks in industrial workplaces. Emissions-based maintenance (EBM) programs offer a proactive approach to controlling diesel engine exhaust while improving operational efficiency.
This session covers the fundamental components of successful EBM programs, including systematic emissions monitoring, statistical analysis of engine emissions data, and development of actionable target values. Attendees will learn practical approaches to emissions data collection, quality control procedures, and interpretation techniques.
The session addresses common implementation challenges and integration with existing maintenance management systems. Real-world case studies demonstrate both successful applications and potential pitfalls. Participants will gain hands-on experience analyzing emissions datasets and developing maintenance decision frameworks. Tools and resources shared include target value calculation methods, data quality assessment techniques, and program evaluation metrics.
