OPSIS Podcasts on Industrial Gas Monitoring

Have you heard of new and strict regulations on mercury emissions within the European Union? If you are responsible for the operations at a waste incineration facility, you probably have. But what’s the issue with mercury, and what do the EU regulations say? The presentation is based on facts from the OPSIS blog on this topic. Dialogue and voices are AI generated.

Several of OPSIS gas analyser types are based on a device called a spectrometer. It separates light into its wavelength components, allowing the analyser to detect light absorption and thereby determine gas concentrations. Let’s take a closer look at how a spectrometer works!

Mercury emissions from waste incinerators and other industrial facilities are often strictly regulated. This calls for monitoring of mercury concentrations. That is not always an easy task, but there is a method available giving the true total mercury content in the flue gas. Let us take a closer look at the topic

Waste incineration might sound negative, but properly managed, it can be an efficient and environmentally sound way to make the best out of waste that cannot easily be recycled. But how can the emissions of air pollutants best be reduced and monitored?

Combustion-based heat and power production has historically been an environmental culprit. However, increased awareness and legislative requirements have improved the situation notably over the past decades. But which rules apply, which emissions-to-air limits are there, and how are the emissions determined?

Back in the nineteenth century or so, industries pouring out smoke through the stacks were considered signs of progress and prosperity. However, that changed when the effects of the emissions became apparent, including smog, acid rain, and respiratory diseases. Nowadays, the smoke is usually much cleaner thanks to more efficient production processes and flue gas treatment, but there’s still smoke. What’s in it?
