  • Publication number: 20080188002
    Abstract: There is provided a method and apparatus for removing selenium oxide in a sample as well as a method and apparatus for measuring mercury in coal combustion exhaust gas by using the same. The apparatus for removing selenium oxide in a sample, comprising: (1) a heating introduction path for heating a sample, (2) a primary cooling unit having a flow path through which the heated sample flows countercurrently to cooling water, whereby the heated sample is mixed with, and cooled by, cooling water, (3) a secondary cooling unit having a spiral flow path for cooling the mixed gas and having a space for gas/liquid separation at the end of the spiral flow path, (4) a regenerator for introducing condensed water from the secondary cooling unit, and (5) a condensed water-cooling path for connecting the regenerator to the primary cooling unit.

  • Patent number: 5693945
    Abstract: An ultraviolet light source is provided on one end of a cell into which a sample gas is introduced. A beam splitter for dividing beams which have been transmitted through the cell into two optical paths is provided on the other end of the cell. A first detector is provided in one optical path, and a second detector is provided in the other optical path. A gas filter filled with a component to be measured is positioned between the detectors and beam splitter so that a concentration of the component to be measured may be obtained on the basis of a difference between the output of the first detector and the product of the output of the second detector and an appointed constant. Influences resulting from components coexisting in the sample gas are reduced. Alternatively, an infrared light source may be provided on one end of a sample cell. A gas filter filled with a gas the same as the gas to be measured is provided at the other end of the sample cell.
