Hydrogen in Natural Gas with TDLAS

News / Publications / Tech - April 3, 2023

Blending Hydrogen (H2) with natural gas (NG) using existing pipeline networks is seen as a possible first step towards decarbonizing natural gas systems. Measuring H2 in NG with TDLAS, however, is not as simple as one might assume. The main components of NG are methane, ethane, and propane; a look into the HITRAN database reveals there is a potential for cross interference at high hydrocarbon concentration levels.

Smart Combustion Analysis

“Recent advances in TDLAS, and especially the way a spectrum is analysed, has opened new opportunities and added functionality to combustion analysers.This article will discuss a new signal processing approach that helps extract more information than before from the acquired spectrum. The approach has been designed to help create a new path forward for smart […]

A Smorgasbord of measurements

Gas concentration measurements for process control, emissions monitoring and safety purposes are ubiquitous in refineries. The instrumentation is dominated by gas chromatographs, but over the past few years another technology has slowly found its way into many refineries: gas analysers based on tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy (TDLAS). This article is the first of a […]
