  • Patent number: 11719630
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a gas analysis method by Raman spectrometry, the method comprising the steps of generating by a laser source a laser beam sweeping a range of frequencies including a plurality of resonance modes of an optical cavity holding gases to be analyzed; delivering the laser beam into the cavity; extracting from the cavity a feedback beam that is sent adjusted in phase and amplitude to the source; during the frequency range sweeping, detecting light intensity peaks in the laser beam in the cavity, the phase of the feedback beam being adjusted to reduce shape asymmetries of the peaks, the amplitude of the feedback beam being adjusted to reduce intervals of zero intensity between the peaks; and performing a spectral analysis of the light inelastically scattered in the cavity, to determine the composition of the gases to be analyzed.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 15, 2020
    Date of Patent: August 8, 2023
    Assignee: AP2E

  • Patent number: 8467064
    Abstract: The invention relates to a gas sampling device comprising a probe for sampling gas, an exploiting device for exploiting the gases sampled, a pipe for transmitting the gases sampled by the probe to the exploiting device, and means for lowering the pressure of the gases sampled in the pipe, to lower the dew point of the gases sampled, the means for lowering the pressure comprising an expansion nozzle arranged in the probe and communicating with the pipe, and a suction device for sucking the gases sampled in the pipe through the exploiting device. Application of the invention to the analysis of hot gases loaded with water vapor.
