Measuring the gas in sludge incineration as an energy source

This week one of our Rapidox 7100 analysers has been sold to a company whose objective is to measure the gas from sludge incineration in wastewater treatment. Sludge incineration is an activity with a future both in renewable energy and in the disposal of the waste itself.

The gases this instrument is able to measure include oxygen (O2), carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), ozone (O3), moisture (H2O), hydrogen (H2), hydrogen sulphide (H2S), nitric oxide (NO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), nitrous oxide (N2O), sulphur dioxide (SO2), chlorine (Cl2), methane (CH4) and ethylene (C2H4), among others, which it calculates and shows on its touch screen. A device able to measure across 10 channels, fitted with electrochemical and infrared sensors.

It includes internal flow and pressure sensors and an internal sampling pump.
