Calculating Removal Efficiencies: Confidence Limits and Hypothesis Tests
Emerging environmental control technologies are frequently characterized in terms of their removal efficiencies. Based on a limited number of tests, the environmental engineer must typically predict the true removal efficiency along with its level of uncertainty. This paper provides a “road map” (based on the number of non–detects, the underlying distribution of data, and whether data are paired or unpaired) for calculating such uncertainty. Both confidence intervals and hypothesis tests are considered.
