Abstract: In one embodiment, active (continuous or intermittent) passivation may be employed to prevent interaction of sticky molecules with interfaces inside of an instrument (e.g., an infrared absorption spectrometer) and thereby improve response time. A passivation species may be continuously or intermittently applied to an inlet of the instrument while a sample gas stream is being applied. The passivation species may have a highly polar functional group that strongly binds to either water or polar groups of the interfaces, and once bound presents a non-polar group to the gas phase in order to prevent further binding of polar molecules. The instrument may be actively used to detect the sticky molecules while the passivation species is being applied.

Abstract: A technician uses a wireless apparatus and system to vary air or fuel in the burner to optimize efficiency and safety. A wireless remote sensor unit has a probe in a flue to draw a sample of combustion gas from the flue for gas sensors and a temperature sensor. The sensors generate analog signals of gas identity, concentration and temperature that are converted to digital signals by an A-to-D converter. A wireless transceiver sends digital signals to a hand held unit or central computer via wireless transmission. The hand held unit receives the digital signals and displays an analysis of the signals. The analysis may be performed by any one of the remote sensor unit, the hand held unit, or the central computer. The wireless unit also receives control signals for the hand held unit or the central computer.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a system and method to detect hydrogen leakage. The system uses a fluid sensing apparatus (104), a light source (120) and a photo detector (122). The nano-crystallized palladium gratings (118) are used as sensors which expand sensitively upon exposure to the hydrogen (H2). In an embodiment, the hydrogen sensing is based on monitoring the changes in the diffraction efficiency (DE) which is defined as the ratio of the first and the zeroth order diffracted beam intensities. The diffraction efficiency undergoes large and sudden changes as the nano-crystalline Pd grating becomes highly disordered due to PdHx formation. An embodiment of the present disclosure also relates to producing nanocrystalline Pd diffraction gratings along with the design and fabrication aspects of an indigenously built optical diffraction cell for H2 sensing.

Abstract: A mobile device comprises a CPU operating a display and other user interface circuitry. Further, it comprises a gas sensor as well as a sensor hub connecting the gas sensor and other sensors to the CPU. In order to save power, the device can be brought into a low-power operating mode, where the CPU is idling or switched-off and the gas sensor itself has a low-power and a high-power operating mode. However, even in this low-power operating mode, the sensor hub still monitors for changes of the signal from the gas sensor and wakes the device up if such a change is detected.

Abstract: A system and method for quantifying an emission source is provided. The system and method obtain a plurality of emission concentration measurements at one or more sampling points and wind data over the time the emission concentrations are measured. For each sampling point, a virtual sampling arc can be constructed using the emission concentration measurements taken at the sampling point, the wind data for when the emission concentration measurement were taken and an approximate distance to the emission source. The virtual sampling arcs can then be used to construct one or more virtual sampling grids and the amount of emissions emanating from the emissions source approximated from the virtual sampling grids.
