_Emission models management (grouping CO2 generated emissions
by departments and fuel types to provide business specific reports)
_Reporting year management (rolling/removing the reporting year).
Fuel consumption data and emission source details are collected by fuel consumers trough data entry screens. Data for a year and a department can be exported as automated data entry spreadsheet, populated and imported back in system.
Various reports can be generated to monitor emission volume and compare source of emissions by departments, fuel types, fuel sources and emission models. This will provide enough information for a corporation management to identify critical emission generators, monitor and evaluate actions for greenhouse gas emission reduction and promoting energy efficiency projects to deliver comprehensive benefits, including attractive financial performance ..

Gas Analyzer
The Thermal and Evolved Gas Analyzer (TEGA) is a scientific instrument aboard the Phoenix spacecraft. TEGA's design is based on experience gained from the failed Mars Polar Lander. Soil samples taken from the Martian surface by the robot arm are eventually delivered to the TEGA, where they are heated in an oven to about 1,000ºC. This heat causes the volatile compounds to be given off as gases which are sent to a mass spectrometer for analysis. This spectrometer is adjusted to measure particularly the isotope ratios for hydrogen, oxygen, carbon, nitrogen, and heavier gases. Detection values as low as 10 parts per billion. The Phoenix TEGA has 8 ovens, which are enough for 8 samples.
A residual gas analyzer (RGA) is a small and usually rugged mass spectrometer, typically designed for process control and contamination monitoring in the semiconductor industry. Utilizing quadrupole technology, there exists two implementations, utilizing either an open ion source (OIS) or a closed ion source (CIS). RGAs may be found in high vacuum applications such as research chambers, surface science setups, accelerators, scanning microscopes, etc. RGAs are used in most cases to monitor the quality of the vacuum and easily detect minute traces of impurities in the low-pressure gas environment. These impurities can be measured down to 10 − 14 Torr levels, possessing sub-ppm detectability in the absence of background interferences.
RGAs would also be used as sensitive in-situ, helium leak detectors. With vacuum systems pumped down to lower than 10 - 5Torr—checking of the integrity of the vacuum seals and the quality of the vacuum—air leaks, virtual leaks and other contaminants at low levels may be detected before a process is initiated.

CO2 Isotope Analyzer
* Measures 13C/12C in carbon dioxide
* Extremely wide measurement range
* Low power requirement (120 W with internal pump)
* Easy to use
The CO2 Isotope Analyzer is an autonomous instrument capable of measuring the 13C/12C ratio in ambient carbon dioxide with better than 0.25‰ repeatability (for an integration time of 60 seconds) and without the need for costly consumables. This is possible because the instrument itself is built around conventional telecommunications-grade diode lasers that operate in the near-infrared spectral region. In addition, since the measurement strategy is based on high-resolution direct-absorption spectroscopy (see www.LGRinc.com, Theory Section), the instrument is not affected by other atmospheric gases or by changes in ambient atmospheric pressure. Thus the need for regular calibration with expensive reference gases is also significantly reduced compared with traditional analytical instruments.
The instrument includes an internal computer that can store data practically indefinitely on its hard drive (for applications requiring unattended long-term standalone operation), and send real-time data to a data logger through its analog, digital (RS232), and Ethernet outputs.

INFRARED ANALYZER
INFRARED ANALYZER
The above diagram provides a graphic representation of the basic design of an infrared analyzer which is used to measure breath alcohol concentrations. The design is based on the fact that specific wavelengths of infrared energy are absorbed by ethyl alcohol molecules. In its simplest form, the instrument's detector measures the change in the amount of a specific wavelength of infrared energy that passes from the infrared source (lamp), through the sample chamber and filter wheel to the detector. The change in response on the detector, as a breath sample is submitted to the sample chamber , is monitored and analyzed by a processor in the instrument. The change in the signal is used to calculate an alcohol concentration

Brimrose NIR Analyzer
A new series of miniature near-infrared (NIR) spectrometers is said to offer a cost-effective tool for inspecting incoming raw materials and product quality control. Compact, battery-powered Model 5030 ATOF-NIR Portable Analyzer from Brimrose Corp. of America, Baltimore, allows laboratory tests to be performed anywhere in a plant environment. The instrument, which sells for $28,000 (compared with $40,000 for larger units), is reportedly insensitive to ambient light, vibration, dust, and dirt. Its design allows for quick switchover from solids to liquids, and results appear instantly on its LCD. Applications include material identification or measurement of moisture content and active-ingredient levels. Once the instrument is calibrated, it reportedly can be used by an inexperienced operator.
