Patent number: 8469295Abstract: An explosive and narcotics detection system detects the presence of trace particles of those materials that are adhering to surfaces. In order to detect such particles, it is necessary to first dislodge or release them from the surface, next to transport them to the detection instrument, and last to accumulate them on or in a particle collection device associated with the instrument.

The gas flow is accelerated past the burner head due to the reducing cross section and is burned downstream in relation to the burning head.Type: GrantFiled: January 10, 2007Date of Patent: October 23, 2012Assignee: Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU)Inventors: Øystein Spangelo, Otto Kristian Sonju, Torbjorn Slungaard, Mario Ditaranto
