What Makes an Analyser “Reference Standard”?

Setting the Standard in Gas Analysis: Why Reference Methods Matter  In the rigorous domains of emissions monitoring, industrial process control, and advanced atmospheric research, the precision and reliability of gas analysis instrumentation are not merely advantageous; they are foundational to regulatory compliance, environmental stewardship, and scientific advancement. The designation of a gas analyser as a […]

Why CEMS Matter — And How to Get It Right

Understanding the Role of Continuous Emissions Monitoring Systems (CEMS) In an increasingly regulated world, the ability to accurately monitor emissions in real time is no longer a luxury—it’s a necessity. Continuous Emissions Monitoring Systems (CEMS) provide the vital data industries need to: From power generation to cement production, from waste incineration to marine and automotive […]

FID: the VOC emissions monitoring reference method – for over 50 years!

The Flame Ionisation Detection (FID) method was first developed in the 1950s for the laboratory analysis of organic chemicals. Later, when environmental regulations began to limit the emissions of volatile organic chemicals (VOCs) in the 1970’s and 1980’s, the FID method was adapted for emissions monitoring. Signal Group was one of the first companies in […]

Carbon capture relies on accurate greenhouse gas monitoring

As the world urgently seeks ways to decarbonise, James Clements from Signal Group explains how gas analysis will perform a vital role – not just for CO2 but for all of the important greenhouse gases. The climate crisis is forcing nations to urgently find ways to lower their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and carbon capture […]

COP29 moving towards the establishment of a global carbon market

An important outcome from the first week of COP29 was the approval of international standards in the global carbon market…  This decision provides a formal basis for the mechanism established by Article 6.4 of the Paris Agreement; known as the ‘Paris Agreement Crediting Mechanism’. Article 6 of the Paris Agreement details how participants can pursue […]

Flame Ionisation […]

Signal invites AQE visitors to a test-drive

Intriguingly, the Signal Group stand will be staffed by gas analysis experts wearing T-shirts saying ‘Ask me about MCERTS!’ It’s too early to say more, but anyone interested in VOC emissions monitoring should head for Stand-L5…if only to try out the detachable tablets. With a heavy focus on technology development, Signal’s MD James Clements is […]

Developing catalysts for a clean fuel future

Researchers at the University of Sheffield are exploring new exhaust aftertreatment systems for heavy-duty engines capable of running on clean, zero-carbon fuels. This 4-year project is funded by an EPSRC grant and supported by the industrial partner Eminox. The project is led by Bill Nimmo, Professor of Energy Engineering and Sustainability, with PhD student Madhumitha […]
