The precision, accuracy, and reproducibility of IRGASTM systems
Problem Statement What is the precision, accuracy, and reproducibility of an FTIR instrument? A seemingly relatively easy question with a not so relatively easy answer. Unfortunately, there is no straight-forward answer to this question, and the answers that there are can get complicated and confusing. Hopefully this application note will give some insight into signal/noise ratio, standard ...

Monitoring and control of a partially packed biological aerated filter (BAF) reactor for improving nitrogen removal efficiency
This paper examines on-off systems and automatic monitoring and control of a biological aerated filter to identify the end point of nitrification and denitrification processes, and chemical oxygen demand (COD), ammonia-nitrogen removal (NH3-N) and aeration savings. Oxidation-reduction potential (ORP), pH and dissolved oxygen (DO) were measured on-line and chemical parameters were measured in the ...

Response time testing of temperature sensors using loop current step response method
The Loop Current Step Response (LCSR) method is used for in–situ response time testing of temperature sensors as installed in an industrial process. This paper presents the theoretical foundation of the LCSR (test theory, LCSR equation and test procedures) and the author's research to validate its use in nuclear power industry applications. The validity of the LCSR method depends on how ...
