What Is Optical Gas Imaging? Explanation In A Nutshell…
This is a short overview on what is Optical Gas Imaging. Before we dive into the technical explanation, we need to understand why do we need to detect gas? There are a few reasons. First one is health and safety -by detecting a leak early, we can prevent explosions and toxins. Second is environmental responses. Greenhouse gasses reduction and regulation compliance. Lastly is Operational ...

The Ability to Detect From a Distance
Observing this series of photos taken every 30 seconds by OPGAL’s OGI camera (EyeCGas 2.0), shows a significant volatile organic compounds emission (VOCs) event, including methane released into the air. The gas flows through a cold pipe (the black flare structure), and its temperature evens out with the ambient air temperature upon release to the atmosphere. However, since all VOCs emit an ...
