On-demand webinar: FTIR 101: An introduction to FTIR Spectrometry for Gas Detection

To view to our on-demand webinar, please complete the short form below.

Discover Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, a robust analytical technique ideal for industrial gas analysis applications such as ambient air monitoring, emissions testing, and gas purity. This webinar offers the opportunity to broaden your knowledge of the inner workings of FTIR spectrometry, and learn how it is used to accurately measure chemical compounds, with a particular focus on gas detection.

 

Additionally, you will gain insight into optically enhanced FTIR (OE-FTIR) spectrometry, a technology advancement that further expands analytical capabilities, enabling rapid and sensitive gas measurements in real-time.

 

Topics covered:

  • Basic of infrared spectroscopy
  • Components of a standard FTIR
  • Advantages of FTIR over other infrared techniques
  • How the FTIR signal is processed.
  • How the FTIR spectrum and software provides the analytical measurement of a gas mixture
  • What is OE-FTIR spectrometry and how does it work
