Project description
Breakthrough technology allows low-cost, real-time natural gas and biogas analysis
Spectroscopy is widely used to gain insight into the chemical composition of matter. Molecular-level information is critical for process optimisation, energy efficiency and environmental protection. However, existing analysers are not well-suited for gas analysis. They might be accurate and affordable, but they are very slow. The EU-funded SRSensor project is developing a cost-effective, real-time analyser for a wide range of gases. Its breakthrough technology utilises stimulated Raman scattering, hi-spec lasers and optics to create a new sensor for faster and more precise gas analysis. Currently, the target markets for SRSensor include real-time monitoring of natural gas and biogas, but others are envisaged.
