Recent amendments made to 40 CFR 60 and 63 have enhanced EPA regulation of flare gas. Fenceline monitoring requirements are also encouraging the incorporation of real-time gas analysis solutions at a range of different industrial sites, all the way from oil refineries to downstream hydrocarbon manufacturing.

Industrial mass spectrometers提供所需合规参数的快速,持续更新,并进一步澄清整体过程控制和安全性。利用实时质谱仪气体分析仪,本文提供了来自火炬气,围栏,燃气和空气监测环境应用的几个示例和数据。
Mass spectrometry is an analytical method that leverages the molecular mass of substances for identification and quantitation inside a vacuum chamber where the ionization of gas and vapors takes place.
Electric fields are then generated by the quadrupole to filter the ions. Ions of a certain mass are picked out to go to the detector. From the ion current measured, the composition of the gas sample is calculated and fed back in real-time to the user.
Mass spectrometers, by nature, are all-rounders: there is no class ofmoleculesbeyond its analysis capabilities, and it is rather fast. When measuring 80 or 100 sample points that are distributed throughout a facility, many dedicated analyzers would typically be required, with all of the extra and necessary maintenance that comes with it. However, a mass spectrometer can do it all in one.
