Monitoring CO2 purity and detecting impurities in carbon capture, carbon sequestration, biogenic CO2, and pipeline transport applications poses some major challenges.
Such processes necessitate the precise measurement of several gases, including CO2, oxygen, nitrogen, methane, and trace elements, to guarantee the purity of captured CO2 and prevent contamination.
Impurities such as sulfur compounds, nitrogen oxides, chlorinated compounds, hydrocarbons, acidic gases, and moisture can severely affect the integrity of CO2 and may result in the formation of acidic conditions.
Impurities in CO2 transported through pipelines can create carbonic acid or other corrosive compounds, which can cause serious pipeline corrosion. Corrosion degrades infrastructure and poses the risk of catastrophic failures and environmental hazards.
Furthermore, the varying conditions of temperature, pressure, and composition in these applications complicate the detection and quantification of these impurities.
Compliance with strict regulatory standards presents an additional layer of complexity, as industries must adhere to specific safety and environmental regulations to protect human health and the environment.
