Why CleanAir’s MET-80 is the BEST 
SOLUTION for mercury monitoring 
under MATS.
So, MATS requires utilities to 
monitor mercury 24/7/365
Unless you have an extension, 
MATS compliance starts 
April 16, 2014
THAT’S LESS THAN 
8 MONTHS AWAY
It feels like we’ve been here before…
Remember CAMR?
Utilities spent 
$millions on mercury 
CEMS hardware as 
they prepared for 
CAMR
A lot of it didn’t work…
or it cost a fortune to operate…
OR BOTH!
Lucky for 
them, most 
plants didn’t 
need it… 
The rule was vacated 
by the courts in 2008
Recognizing the deficiency in Hg 
CEMS, a few plants went with 
sorbent trap systems instead
They had their reasons
 Cheaper than CEMS 
 Back-up for CEMS 
 More sensitivity than CEMS 
 More reliable than CEMS 
 Simpler than CEMS
CleanAir created the MET-80 in 2004 
to address these customers’ needs
Before the MET-80, sorbent trap 
systems (aka Appendix K Samplers) 
were essentially re-purposed stack 
testing equipment
Before the MET-80, sorbent trap 
systems (aka Appendix K Samplers) 
were essentially re-purposed stack 
testing equipment 
They were viewed as back-ups to the primary 
CEMS, not known for their long-term reliability
They They were viewed were as kind back-of ups cheap 
to the primary 
CEMS, not known for their long-term reliability
They They were viewed were as kind back-of ups cheap 
to the primary 
CEMS, not known for their long-term reliability 
And they were giving the technology a bad reputation
We designed the 
MET-80 from the 
ground up to be 
the Primary 
Mercury 
Monitoring 
System
And we had a philosophy…
MET-80 DESIGN PHILOSOPHY 
It would be reliable
MET-80 DESIGN PHILOSOPHY 
It would be reliable 
> 95% availability
MET-80 DESIGN PHILOSOPHY 
It would be robust
MET-80 DESIGN PHILOSOPHY 
It would be robust 
Able to handle the worst stack and 
weather conditions out there, 
24/7/365
MET-80 DESIGN PHILOSOPHY 
It would be simple
MET-80 DESIGN PHILOSOPHY 
It would be simple 
A technician could operate and 
maintain it on their first day
MET-80 DESIGN PHILOSOPHY 
It would be CEMS-like
MET-80 DESIGN PHILOSOPHY 
It would be CEMS-like 
Integratable, rack-mounted, 
industry-standard components and 
quality manufacturing
We succeeded
The first compliance-reporting 
sorbent trap mercury 
monitoring systems in the U.S. 
were at Dominion’s Salem 
Harbor Power Station. 
And they were…
The first compliance-reporting 
sorbent trap mercury 
monitoring systems in the U.S. 
were at Dominion’s Salem

And they were… 
Three MET-80s, Fully integrated, certified, and 
reporting for the Massachusetts Mercury Rule
The industry took note…

MATS-Tailored Software
We installed 33 systems prior to 
the vacatur of CAMR in 2008
We installed another 10 
systems post-CAMR for 
state permitting 
purposes
In total, prior to MATS, 
CleanAir installed over 40 
MET-80s for the utilities
35 of these systems are 
still in operation today
7 years and counting for 
the oldest

It all adds up to a lot 
of operating experience!
And we’ve had a lot to SAY 
about sorbent trap monitoring 
over the years…

And we’ve collected and 
published a lot of data…
A LOT of Data
And we have a long history of 
operational and design 
improvements of the MET-80 
The MATS design is our 4th Generation
The word is out…
So far this year, 40 MET-80s have 
been purchased for MATS
Why MET-80?
Three good reasons…
1) Experience 
No other sorbent trap system has 
the installed base and operating 
hours than the MET-80
1) Experience 
No other sorbent trap system has 
the installed base and operating 
hours than the MET-80 
Literally millions of operating 
hours…no one comes close
