1. Process Monitoring Scenarios for Energy and Industrial Production
Oil & Gas Exploration, Transportation and Storage: Real-time monitoring of methane leakage and purity fluctuations is conducted at drilling platforms, LNG receiving terminals, gas transmission pipelines and tank farms. Specifically, fixed deployment is adopted at leak-prone points such as valves and flanges to form a continuous monitoring network, ensuring the safety of energy transmission and the economy of transportation. Meanwhile, it provides accurate data support for natural gas calorific value accounting.
Coal Chemical Industry: In processes like coal-to-gas and ammonia synthesis, the system monitors methane concentration in reactors and conveying pipelines, enabling precise regulation of reaction parameters and optimization of production efficiency. It also delivers leakage early warnings for tank farms and process workshops, eliminating explosion risks caused by flammable gas accumulation.
Industrial Gas Utilization: For heat treatment lines and drying processes in industries such as machinery manufacturing, textiles and breweries, the system detects methane leakage around natural gas heating equipment. Designed for lightweight deployment, it achieves 24/7 uninterrupted monitoring without complex on-site modifications, guaranteeing stable production processes.
2. Safety Protection Scenarios for High-Risk Areas
Coal Mining Industry: Real-time monitoring of gas concentration (primarily methane) is implemented in underground mining faces, return air roadways, goafs and other zones. The system can also be integrated with mining inspection robots to realize all-weather monitoring in unmanned areas, preventing gas explosion and personnel poisoning accidents.
Confined Space Operations: It conducts real-time monitoring of methane accumulation before and during operations in confined spaces including sewers, sewage wells, septic tanks and the interior of oil tankers, safeguarding the safety of construction personnel. In addition, it monitors methane leakage around ship engine rooms and refrigeration systems of freezers to prevent asphyxiation or explosion risks.
Commercial and Public Facilities: The system detects natural gas leakage in hotel kitchens, residential kitchens, boiler rooms and other areas, and can be linked with ventilation systems or automatic shut-off valves. In underground parking lots, it intelligently activates ventilation equipment by monitoring methane generated from vehicle exhaust and gas leakage, avoiding gas accumulation in enclosed environments.
3. Environmental Monitoring and Dual-Carbon Management Scenarios
Stationary Pollution Source Monitoring: At landfills and biomass power plants, it monitors methane emissions from organic matter decomposition in waste piles and gas collection wells, facilitating gas recovery, utilization and environmental compliance. At the emission outlets of industrial kilns and chemical parks, it connects to environmental supervision platforms and uploads real-time methane emission data, meeting greenhouse gas management requirements.
Agricultural Low-Carbon Monitoring: In scenarios such as rice fields and livestock farms, the system monitors methane emission fluxes generated by soil microbial activities and manure fermentation. It provides accurate data for agricultural carbon sink accounting and low-carbon planting technology research and development, supporting the realization of full-chain carbon sink value covering "monitoring, accounting and trading".
Emergency and Law Enforcement Monitoring: At the scene of sudden environmental incidents like chemical leaks and fires, it is integrated with robots for rapid monitoring of methane leakage concentration, providing decision-making support for emergency rescue. In environmental law enforcement, it accurately locates fugitive emission sources of enterprises, facilitating VOCs pollution control and evidence collection.
4. Scientific Research and Special Field Scenarios
Laboratories in Universities and Research Institutes: It is applied in research fields such as combustion science, atmospheric chemistry and geological exploration, accurately capturing subtle fluctuations in methane concentration. It provides high-precision data for chemical reaction mechanism analysis, pollutant diffusion model establishment and research on methane geochemical emission mechanisms.
Agricultural and Ecological Research: In experimental fields (e.g., Yangtze River Delta Dual-Carbon Innovation Center) and wetland ecosystems, the system monitors methane emission rules, providing data support for low-carbon agricultural technology research and development and climate change studies, helping to achieve synergistic effects of pollution reduction and carbon emission reduction.
Medical Auxiliary Applications: It assists in methane-hydrogen breath tests in the field of digestive medicine. By calibrating detection equipment, it accurately analyzes methane content in exhaled gas of patients, providing technical support for the diagnosis of diseases such as small intestinal bacterial overgrowth.
