LDAR (Leak Detection and Repair)

LDAR programmes are technical plans for detecting and repairing industrial fugitive emissions that allow operators to locate, measure, prioritise and correct emissions of gases, vapours or volatile compounds from facilities. Their effectiveness depends on how...

Nitric oxide (NO)

Nitric oxide (NO) is one of the most important, and often underestimated, gases in the field of air quality and industrial emissions management. Colourless, odourless and highly reactive, NO belongs to the group of nitrogen oxides (NOx), compounds directly linked to...

Oxygen (O2)

Oxygen (O2) is the most critical safety parameter to measure in industrial environments involving confined spaces, combustion processes, biogas generation or waste treatment. Its normal concentration in ambient air is 20.9%, but any deviation (deficiency or...

Hydrogen chloride (HCl)

Hydrogen chloride (HCl) is an inorganic compound that, under normal temperature and pressure conditions, appears as a colorless gas with a sharp, irritating odor. It is also extremely soluble in water. When dissolved, it forms hydrochloric acid, one of the most widely...

Hydrogen fluoride (HF)

Hydrogen fluoride (HF) is a highly useful yet dangerous chemical compound. Its colourless gaseous form is accompanied by a sharp odour and the ability to be highly toxic and corrosive. Its primary function emerges when it dissolves in water, forming hydrofluoric acid,...
