Passive In-Situ Gas and Chemical Sensor

In many chemical processes, it is often desirable to detect the presence, quantity, and/or qualities of certain chemicals of interest; for example, in many closed chemical processes (either batch or continuous), the generation or infiltration of certain deleterious chemicals can damage or ruin the effectiveness of the process. By continually or periodically monitoring such processes, the presence and/or amount of a deleterious chemical may be timely reported, and damage to the system may be averted.
