The ability of advanced, laser-based sensors to detect moisture, hydrogen sulfide and other contaminants in gases can smooth the way for biogas as a resource for electric utilities. Wouldn’t it be great if some of the expensive Green Power programs you hear about actually worked? Experts and financiers are predicting it will take billions of investment dollars and decades to get any meaningful quantity of energy from alternative resources. Maybe not. Maybe not. One of the oldest and most widespread forms of potential energy – methane gas – promises to give those efforts a sizable boost – right now.

Tunable-Diode Laser-based moisture sensors help ensure long catalyst life, reduce operational costs,and offer the lowers overall cost of ownership.
Refineries and chemical plants have long been subjected - perhaps unwittingly - to high costs incurred from failure of conventional moisture analyzer to accurately read moisture intrusion in feedstocks and hydrogen recycle streams, vital to optimizing product yield and catalyst life.

Ultra-fast and highly accurate, a new Tunable Diode Laser analyzer technology is being adopted by petrochemical plants, refineries and gas processors, reducing maintenance while providing enhanced control over process integrity.
“That enabled us to offer a highly accurate moisture analyzer that requires virtually no maintenance. Natural gas producers and pipeline operators love it because it can help them generate more revenue by making sure that wet gas does not get into the line. Also, natural gas contains H2S (hydrogen sulfide), which becomes sulfuric acid when mixed with water, and pipeline operators certainly don’t want that wreaking havoc on their system.” Today, a broad variety of low maintenance TDL gas analyzers are commercially available to measure moisture as well as hydrogen sulfide, carbon dioxide, acetylene, hydrogen chloride and ammonia.
