Application: The majority (around 60%) of the coal seams currently being extracted worldwide are so far underground that open cast mining cannot take place and, therefore, underground mining techniques need to be used. Consequently, workers have to enter and work in confined spaces. One of the major problems that this creates is the dangers from Methane (CH4) gas which occurs in Mine ...

Fast, accurate and reliable measurement of CH4. Mining is the extraction of valuable minerals or other geological materials from the Earth. Coal mining refers to the process of extracting coal from the ground. Since the 1880s, coal has been extracted due to its energy content has been widely used to generate electricity. For example, steel and cement industries use coal as a fuel for extraction of iron and for cement production. Coal mining has seen many developments in recent years, from the early days of men ...

Fast, accurate and reliable measurement of CO2 and CH4 concentration. Biogas is the mixture of gases produced by the process of anaerobic digestion, which is the breakdown of organic matter in the absence of oxygen. Biogas can be used as a source of energy and is produced from raw materials such as agricultural waste, manure, municipal waste, plant material, sewage, green waste or food waste. Biogas primarily consists of methane and carbon dioxide, but also may have small amounts of hydrogen sulphide, moisture and ...

Application: Anaerobic Digestion plants produce various gas components from a source material (or feedstock) that can be composed either solely or as a mixture of slurries, purpose-grown crops, food and organic waste material. The composition of the gas produced varies depending upon the feedstock and the Anaerobic digestion process itself. As a consequence, it is normal to measure various components of the resultant gas produced to evaluate the efficiency of the Anaerobic Digestion process. Furthermore, due to ...

Application: In March 1986 an explosion destroyed a bungalow adjacent to a landfill site in Loscoe, Derbyshire. Subsequent measurements showed that 150-200 cubic meters of gas per hour were being generated by landfill waste. This event triggered a change in the way the waste industry considered and regulated gas generated at landfill sites; resulting in the landfill regulations of 2002, and in particular LFTGN03: the Guidance on the Management of landfill ...
