Fermentation, the chemical process that uses yeast to convert sugars to ethanol, is at the heart of the wine production process and requires accurate CO₂ measurement to ensure quality wines. Temperatures and conditions in wineries are very carefully controlled to ensure that fermentation does not occur too fast, distorting the flavour and alcohol content of the …
Recently the use of a UAV drone for gas sensing has become more popular. From monitoring global warming to tracking the spread of pollution, there are many good reasons to want to be able to monitor carbon dioxide, methane and other hydrocarbon gas concentrations even in the most remote, or dangerous, of locations. Leaks in oil …
Airflow patterns in aircraft affect a significant number of travellers every year, and the close proximity of passengers in aircraft cabins leaves them vulnerable to disease transmission and infection if the correct ventilation systems are not put in place. In a study written by one of our customers at Kansas State University, a mock-up Boeing 767 …
Safety is a top priority for nuclear applications in power plants. CO₂-cooled reactors are inherently safer than water-cooled reactors, but it is essential to prevent, detect, and repair CO₂ leaks to maintain safe operation. Infrared sensors from Edinburgh Sensors provide the ideal leak detection solution for nuclear research and nuclear power plants. Nuclear power stations convert …
In a recent article published by Process Industry Informer, it was highlighted that over 50% of stored grains are lost after harvesting due to spoilage caused by mould or insect infestation, and amounts to roughly $1 trillion per year in losses. However, these major economic losses can be combatted by the early detection of spoilage with …
We were excited to see that our customers, Petronas Carigali, have recently had their work on Gas Lift Optimisation (GLOP) published in One Petro. Gas Lift Optimisation Abstract Field B, located offshore in Malaysia relies on gas lift optimisation due to the high water cut behaviour of the reservoir paired with low-medium reservoir pressure. Traditional techniques …
