Verification of Emission Quantification & Localisation Technology

Lead Participant: MIRICO LTD.

Abstract

"With growing concerns on environmental pollution and its adverse impact on human health, it has become increasingly important to measure and control industrial processes, reduce emissions from fossil fuel power plants and better understand the ambient air quality around us. To date, however, precision instrumentation capable of high sensitivity and accurate concentration measurements tends to be manual, cumbersome to use, requires continuous calibration and maintenance and is often limited to use in controlled environments.

MIRICO's Laser Dispersion Spectroscopy technology is a revolutionary approach for highly sensitive remote measurements of gases, offering high versatility and enabling new approaches to emission monitoring that provide more realistic, robust and reliable data on emission sources. In collaboration with NPL, MIRICO will test this new spectroscopic technique, utilising NPL's state of the art facilities to demonstrate the technology's superior performance in demanding industrial environments.

The resulting technology will provide the potential to improve environmental monitoring efforts, enhance product yields in industrial processes and provide policy makers with the tools to reduce emissions of pollutants and enhance the ambient air quality to mitigate the impact on human health."
