FTIR: Advanced Gas Analysis

In the pursuit of precise and efficient emission monitoring, Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy stands out as a cutting-edge technology. Widely recognized for its accuracy and versatility, FTIR analyzers are essential tools for detecting and measuring multiple gas components simultaneously. When integrated with gas scrubbers, FTIR analyzers enhance the efficiency and reliability of emission control systems.
At Ravebo, we incorporate FTIR technology into our gas scrubbers to provide real-time insights into pollutant levels, enabling our clients to achieve unparalleled emission control and regulatory compliance.

FTIR, or Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy, is a powerful analytical technique that uses infrared light to identify and quantify gases in a sample. The principle behind FTIR lies in the unique way molecules absorb specific wavelengths of infrared light. By analyzing the absorption patterns, FTIR can detect the presence and concentration of various gas components.

How does FTIR work?

The process of FTIR spectroscopy involves the following steps:

1. Infrared Light Emission:
   A broad spectrum of infrared light is passed through a gas sample.
2. Molecular Absorption:
   Molecules in the gas sample absorb light at specific wavelengths based on their unique chemical structure.
3. Spectrum Analysis:
   The remaining light is collected and transformed into a spectrum that reveals the gas composition and concentration.

FTIR analyzers are capable of measuring multiple gas components simultaneously, making them ideal for complex industrial emissions.

FTIR analyzers are used in various industrial applications where gas scrubbers are deployed, including:

1. Chemical Manufacturing
   Monitoring and controlling emissions of hazardous gases like hydrogen chloride (HCl) and ammonia (NH₃).
2. Power Generation
   Measuring sulfur oxides (SOx) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) in flue gas streams from coal and biomass power plants.
3. Oil and Gas Refining
   
4. Waste Management
   Tracking methane (CH₄) and other odorous compounds in incinerators and landfill gas treatment systems.

FTIR technology provides numerous benefits when integrated into gas scrubbers:

• High Sensitivity:
  Capable of detecting trace levels of pollutants with precision.
