Demonstration of an Ethane Spectrometer for Methane Source Identification

ABSTRACT: Methane is an important greenhouse gas and tropospheric ozone precursor. Simultaneous observation of ethane with methane can help identify specific methane source types. Aerodyne Ethane-Mini spectrometers, employing recently available mid-infrared distributed feedback tunable diode lasers (DFB-TDL), provide 1 s ethane measurements with sub-ppb precision. In this work, an Ethane-Mini ...

Expert insight: test method basics for oxidizer permit requirements

Whenever a new oxidizer is installed to control Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) emissions, the question often comes up: What test method should I use to demonstrate that the device meets permit ...

Oil’s methane emissions higher than feared

Global methane emissions from oil production between 1980 and 2012 were far higher than previously thought – in some cases, as much as double the amount previously estimated, according to a new scientific study The reason for the discrepancy ...

Multi-Gas Sensor

Infrared multi gas sensors are based on the principle of non-dispersive infrared spectroscopy (NDIR). The multi gas sensor uses light of a specific wavelength in the infrared range to illuminate the sample depending on the type of gas to be analyzed. It measures the absorption of light when crossing the sample chamber and indicates the concentration of the gas in the sample chamber. A chemical ...
