  • POWER GENERATION

    For decades, the power generation industry has faced many challenges in meeting global energy needs.  The grower need for reliable power generation has never been greater. About 20% of the world’s electricity comes from renewable sources. However, most of the fossil-fuel based power generation is responsible for about one-quarter of total CO2 emissions.  Reducing CO2 emissions is an important aspect of power generation.  Industry must implement combustion control must be in place on diesel, natural gas, propane, gasoline, compressed gas, biogas, landfill gas, coal mine gas, sewage gas, and combustible industrial waste.  Harmful components like Carbon Monoxide (CO), hydrocarbons, and Nitrogen Oxides can be monitored with the right real-time gas analyzers for industrial off-gas, enrichment, and combustion control, to meet environmental compliance.

    Our solutions include:

  • HYDROGEN

    Hydrogen is a rich source of energy.  Its popularity is growing.  Hydrogen purification and purity analysis requires high chemical purity of the hydrogen gas. Hydrogen fuel cell use chemical energy to cleanly and efficiently produce electricity.  One key issue with fuel cells is that the performance is dependent on the purity of the hydrogen.  While impurities in hydrogen must be monitored along many steps of the supply chain, only the final product dispensed at the fueling station is typically tested for the full suite of analytes listed in the ISO/SAE standards, as required by regulations. 

    Our high-performance TIGER OPTICS™ Cavity Ring-Down Spectroscopy (CRDS) gas analyzers are used in many demanding measurement applications from ultra-high purity electronic gases for semiconductor manufacturing to industrial and medical gases.

    NUCLEAR ENERGY

    Nuclear requires safety-critical process control.  From trace HCl measurements to comply with US EPA rules to continuous monitoring of ammonia slip for reducing the cost of abating NOx, we can deliver reliable emissions gas analyzers 24/7/365.  Our durable gas analysis solutions can help power plant operators quickly identify emissions gas analyzer problems quickly and reduce downtime. Be assured that our portfolio of CRDS gas analyzers can deliver the accurate and stable measurement of gas compositions such as CO, CO2, H2, and CH4 in the biomass gasifier to improve the gasification quality.  Our industrial quadrupole mass spectrometers provide accurate measurement of Heating Value (BTU), Wobbe Index/Density, Combustion Coefficient, Methane, Sulfurs, CO2, non-methane organics, and even moisture.

  • FLUE GAS DESULFURIZATION

    Flue gas desulfurization removes sulfur dioxide (SO2) from flue gas emissions of coal-fired power plants. Coal-burning plants cause environmental and human health hazard.

    Flue gas desulfurization wastewater systems can contain contaminants that may interfere with certain laboratory analyses.  Effluent water monitoring must be fast and accurate.  This can be effectively and efficiently treated using our online water analysis solution.

    Our solutions also include:

    • Fast, Multi-Cycle Total Sulfur Fuel Gas ATOM INSTRUMENT™ FGA-1000™ 
    • Direct Heating Value Analyzer for BTU, CARI, Wobbe and Density COSA XENTAUR™ 9610 CXc™  Calorimeter
    • In Situ O2 and COe for Combustion Monitoring for Burner Optimization COSA XENTAUR™ O2CX™  Monitor
    • Industrial Mass Spectrometers for Real-Time, Multi-Stream Fuel Compliance and Fuel Control EXTREL™ MAX300-RTG™  2.0
  • BIOFUELS & RENEWABLES

    Biomass can be converted directly into liquid fuels – “biofuels,” to help meet the world’s transportation fuel needs.  Pyrolysis is the heating of an organic material, like biomass, in the absence of oxygen. Our VeraSpec MB system can be used to probe the in-situ chemical dynamics in hot supercritical and gas-phase hydrocarbons. The ability to identify, by direct observation rather than inference, the key species along the reaction coordinate can be used to generate a “roadmap” for thinking about how these chemical systems differ from those that are already widely understood.

  • PROCESS WATER AND WASTEWATER

    PROCESS WATER & WASTEWATER

    Energy production using water is commonly referred to as hydropower or hydroelectric power. It involves harnessing the energy of moving water, typically in the form of rivers or large bodies of water, to generate electricity.
