Environmental Track
Environmental concerns go hand in hand with process control, compliance, safety, and energy concerns. With the public spotlight focused on environmental impact, companies are working harder than ever to keep their facilities on-line with a minimal footprint on the earth and clean working areas for all. Analyzing the process, monitoring operations, and staying within regulatory guidelines are mandatory activities in any facility. The Environmental Track will cover topics such as continuous emissions, spills, sampling systems, detectors, and chemical analysis.

In this tutorial, a case will be made that there has not been any benchmarks set for what the characteristic of an ideal process analyzer might be. The tutorial will make an attempt to develop some consensus as to what these key attributes might be and then rate our current measurement technologies in terms of meeting these criteria. An attempt will also be made to identify technology trends (e.g. miniaturization of sensors/analyzers) that could significantly impact process analyzer technologies of the future. - Emission Monitoring Systems to Meet EPA Requirements
