Abstract: A system for generating electricity includes a generator and an interface. The generator is coupled to the interface and provides data to the interface regarding electricity generation. The interface is coupled to a control node for monitoring and controlling the generator. The control node may be coupled to the generator through a medium such as the internet. In some aspects of the invention, a continuous emissions monitoring system is provided for fossil-fuel based generators to enhance operation and reduce emissions of such generators.

Abstract: A combustion gas analyzer for measuring the concentration of a gas constituent in an exhaust gas stream is provided. The gas analyzer includes a sensor cell assembly coupled to a transmitter having electrical circuitry configured to provide an output of the concentration of the gas constituent as sensed by the sensor cell assembly. The combustion gas analyzer also includes a filter substantially enclosing the sensor cell assembly and a conduit coupled to the filter at a first end of the conduit and coupled to a valve assembly at a second end of the conduit. The conduit is used for supplying a calibration gas to the sensor cell assembly or for supplying a blow-back gas used to purge the filter.

Abstract: A sample conditioner system carries a real-time sample of a process gas through a chromatograph column in an analyzer. A flame ionization detector (FID) is coupled to the chromatograph column and generates a temperature output and an output indicating sample ions. A processor generates a real-time process gas analysis and a mass set point. A flow controller controls mass flow of a stream of gas to the FID.

Abstract: A high-temperature probe assembly for a continuous emission monitoring system is provided. The probe assembly includes a sample take-off coupled to a sample source. A length of high-temperature conduit is coupled to the sample take-off. The length of high-temperature conduit is also coupled to a chamber that includes an upper portion disposed above a focussing portion. The focussing portion is shaped to guide matter falling thereon to a drain. A sample probe is disposed within the chamber proximate the upper portion. A method for obtaining a high-temperature sample is also provided.
