Abstract:

An emission detection system an enclosed combustion device stack is disclosed. The detection system has a sampling line having a first end exposed to a combusted gas passing through the stack exit port, to receive an undiluted gas sample from the stack exit port. The detection system has an electrostatic particulate matter sensor coupled to a second end of the sampling line, the second end positioned lower than and downstream of the first end, to analyze the undiluted gas sample. The detection system has an exhaust outlet coupled to and downstream of the electrostatic particulate matter sensor, to receive the undiluted gas sample from the electrostatic particulate matter sensor and feed the undiluted gas sample to the primary gas intake line upstream of the enclosed combustion device stack burner.

International Classification:

G08B 17/10
G01N 15/06
G01M 15/10
E21B 43/26

Abstract:

A sensing and reporting device comprising an exhaust receiving section, an exhaust analyzing instrument, and a control unit. The exhaust receiving section comprises an exhaust sample intake port and a sampling line. The exhaust analyzing instrument comprises one or more sensors adapted to detect at least incomplete combustion and/or visible emissions in an enclosed combustion device. The exhaust analyzing instrument further comprises a probe chamber and a sampling block, with the sampling block comprising a sampling line inlet, a primary gas inlet, and an exhaust outlet. The control unit communicatively coupled to the exhaust analyzing instrument and emits a signal related to the detection of the incomplete combustion and/or visible emissions in the enclosed combustion device.
