Lets give credit where credit is due - no one on the green side is going to want to believe this but good old USA - under the reign of The Donald - had the largest REDUCTION in coal consumption as they switched to natural gas. The USA reduced coal consumption by 163 TerraWatt hours […]

While much is made of the rapid deployment of renewable energy sources such as wind and solar in the last decade, have we really made a difference? One might expect that the reported huge growth has significantly changed the energy profile of the world and our potential to save ourselves from the newly coined term […]

The measuring principle of the COSA 9610 Wobbe Index Meter is based on the analysis of residual oxygen content in the flue gas after the combustion of the sample. A continuous gas sample is mixed with dry air at a precisely maintained constant ratio, dependent on the BTU range of the gas to be measured. […]

How effective has it been to fight against pipelines ? The USA has increased imports from Russia while the liberals the greens and the NDP in Canada along with Biden fight against pipelines.Quebec bans a natural gas pipeline - which would ship the most ESG compliant natural gas in the world to overseas markets to […]

Someone mentioned the West's Historic CO2 bills - saying if you go back to 1750 the industrial revolution increased CO2 emissions - and used a graphic to show that from 1750 to the Present the US had contributed 25% of the world's emissions, and China only 13 %. Seems like a valid point. However... If […]

There are more than a few things that piss me off, with questionable business ethics near the top of the list, but closely followed by stupid B.S. Both of these are readily apparent in our Canadian Federal government and both are contributed to globally by the news media. OK - time to put some specifics […]

The measurement of hydrocarbon and water dewpoint are both important custody transfer specifications for natural gas transmission. The ZEGAZ Dewpoint analyzers can measure water dewpoint, hydrocarbon dewpoint, or both. These measurements are true dewpoint measurements and are not based on equation of state calculations. ZEGAZ Instruments products are the only analyzers in the world using […]

- John Kozich Keywords Sample Systems, Sample Transport, Adsorption, Desorption Abstract Many different analytical techniques have made the transition from the laboratory to online process monitoring. UV Natural gas is processed in order to meet customer specifications, such that it may be sold based on energy content. Suppliers and producers whose product does meet the […]

- Paul Little - Jie Zhu Keywords Laser, Spectrometer, Near Infrared, On-Line, In-Situ, Hydrocarbon Analysis Abstract Near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy is a powerful tool for process measurement of chemical composition and estimation of the physical properties of materials. Various spectroscopic designs have been employed, including both dispersive and interferometric devices. Recently, a novel analyzer using a […]
