Technical Equipment

The technical equipment of the system optimization working group for the field of emission measurements at biogas plants includes various analytical devices:

Technical plantPerformance spectrum
FID (TESTA FID-2010T)Selective determination of total C and methane C concentrations using an integrated methane catalyst (“cutter”), measuring range 0 to 100,000 ppm

Mobile Gas camera SENSIA

 
PORTAFID M3K (Sewerin)Measuring range  0-10.000 ppm methane

Gaschromatograph with autosampler and (FID) 

Detection of methane
ECD (Agilent 7890A GC System)Detection of nitrous oxide

TDLAS
