  • Publication number: 20220397920
    Abstract: A method and system to precision dose a fluid system with an injection fluid having chemicals is provided. The method and system includes providing a buffered dosing tank of a known geometry between a source tank and an injection pump. The fluid level detector measures the pressure of the dosing tank to determine a fluid level. The fluid level together with the known geometry allow for a controller to calculate a fluid volume in the dosing tank and a change of volume over time. Using the change of volume over time, the controller can calculate an actual dose rate and adjust a speed or duty cycle of the injection pump such that the actual dose rate is approximately the target dose rate.

  • Patent number: 7947502
    Abstract: The invention is directed to a method and a kit for calibrating a photoluminescence measurement system, in particular a fluorescence measurement system. The kit includes a number of fluorescence standards i and their corrected and certified fluorescence spectra Ii(?), whereby the fluorescence standards i are selected, so that their spectrally corrected fluorescence spectra Ii(?) cover a broad spectral range with high intensity. The standards are characterized by large half-widths FWHMi of their bands of at least 1400 cm?1. According to the method of the invention, partial correction functions Fi(?) are generated by forming the quotient of the measured fluorescence spectra Ji(?) and the corresponding corrected fluorescence spectra Ii(?), which are then combined to form a total correction function F(?) for a broad spectral range.
