Greenhouse gas detection

From next year, the USA’s Environmental Protection Agency will require operators of large carbon-emitting operations to submit annual emissions reports for carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and other greenhouse gases.  These firms will require analytical tools to monitor their emissions and to create estimates based on energy consumption.  But they face a dilemma on how they will gather the data.  Read the full article at Chemical & Engineering News.

Equally important are the tools to determine levels of harmful gases in the general environment.  Published online in Analytical Methods, Jason Horn and colleagues use Clark-type amperometric gas sensing methodology to investigate hydrogen sulfide in the air:

Gordon F. Kirkbright Bursary Award 2011

Applications are invited for the 2011 Gordon Kirkbright Bursary.

The Gordon F. Kirkbright Bursary Award is a prestigious annual award that enables a promising student/non-tenured young scientist of any nation to attend a recognised scientific meeting or visit a place of learning.

The fund for this bursary was established in 1985 as a memorial to Professor Gordon Kirkbright in recognition of his contributions to analytical spectroscopy and to science in general. Although the fund is administered by the Association of British Spectroscopists (ABS) Trust, the award is not restricted to spectroscopists.

For further information contact John Chalmers at vibspecconsult@aol.com.

The closing date for entries is 31st December 2010.
