Air Monitoring
Greenhouse Gas Analyser
Apr 04 2012
The University of Wollongong (UOW) and Ecotech (Australia) are pleased to announce a partnership to manufacture and distribute a comprehensive greenhouse gas analyser to worldwide markets.
Based on technology developed by researchers at UOW’s School of Chemistry, the new Ecotech instrument, known as the Spectronus analyser, delivers a high precision, real-time analysis of all principal greenhouse gases, capabilities unmatched by its competitors.
The analyser has applications in background air monitoring and in quantifying the emissions and uptake of greenhouse gases by ecosystems and industries, especially agriculture.
“Policy decisions based on climate change research demand precise, highly accurate and repeatable data for all greenhouse gases, not just CO2,” said Professor David Griffith, Head of the UOW Research Team.
Other gases such as methane, nitrous oxide, carbon monoxide, along with water vapour, are all important in any comprehensive assessment of atmospheric effects on and by climate change. The Spectronus analyser offers, for the first time, a single high-accuracy instrument which simultaneously measures important greenhouse gases.
“One of the major benefits of the analyser is its long-term performance stability without the need for frequent calibration,” said Nicholas Dal Sasso, Ecotech’s Managing Director.
The Spectronus hardware is complemented by powerful operating software which results in a flexible, fully-automated system that can be controlled remotely.
