Air Sampling During NPP Accident

There has been considerable interest recently generated regarding emergency air sampling protocols as a result of the Fukushima accident in Japan. A major concern involving air sampling requirements is the accurate determination of gaseous-radioactive iodine species emitted from the NPP to the environment as a result of an accident. During normal NPP operation gaseous radioactive iodine ...

Continuous Gas Analyzer for Hydrogen and Noble Gas

Specializing in hydrogen and noble gases: For continuous measurement of hydrogen and noble gases, the specific thermal conductivity of the sample gas mixture is measured and used to calculate the concentration. Only binary gas mixtures can be measured directly. If more than two components are present, the concentrations of all other components must be measured separately using other measuring ...
