Fence-Line Monitoring of Fugitive Emissions
The Opsis open-path monitoring system is an excellent tool for monitoring air quality, fugitive emissions and gas leaks at industrial sites. By arranging monitoring paths strategically at locations outside the borderline of an industrial area, fugitive emissions and gas leaks will effectively be detected. By combining the measured gas data with meteorological parameters information such as where the pollution sources are located and the strength of the emissions can be calculated, using the EnviMan software.
Gas Parameters
The Opsis system can monitor a majority of the gas pollutants that would be of interest for an industrial fence line application. Gas parameters such as nitrogen dioxide, sulphur dioxide and ozone can be monitored together with specific aromatic compounds such as benzene, toluene, and xylenes, and smelling compounds such as ammonia, styrene and phenol. Many more gases can be found in the List of Gas Parameters.
Why Opsis?
- Path measurements cover more area and provide more information than traditional point monitoring systems
- Multiple gas capability is especially useful at industrial applications where a complex mixture of gas pollutants is expected
- The lack of a sampling system provides fast detection and requires a minimum of maintenance
- With multiple gas monitoring capability, and fast response time, the Opsis open-path system also a powerful tool for gas leak detection, providing alarms at given limit levels
- Complete solutions for compliance with environmental regulations and the environmental management system ISO 14000
- International approvals
