Benefits of TDL Over Extractive Measurement

Benefits of TDL Over Extractive Measurement
Monitoring NH3 using extractive sampling is difficult. The sample must be kept above 290oC (554oF) to prevent formation of ABS and sulfuric acid, both of which damage the sampling and analytical equipment. Without direct gas analysis, many parameters will influence the NH3 measurement, including inlet NOx concentration, fuel composition and catalys...

pH and Conductivity and the 'Elephant' in the Room

tips-from-the-field-DMS
 There's an old story about a group of blind men attempting to describe an elephant by touching different parts of its body. "It's like a snake," said the one who touched its trunk. "No, it's like a fan," said the one who touched its ear. The parable shows how we all tend to base "truth" on our sometimes limited or subjective experience, often...
