Supported by its auto-validation software capabilities, the analyzer also helps maintain the necessary uptime to overcome the regulatory challenges of CEMS applications and comply with EPA PS18 for NH3.
It is important to effectively control NOx through ammonia (NH3) slip to meet legislative requirements and avoid fines. This also improves combustion efficiency, reducing fuel costs and harmful emissions. High levels of unreacted NH3 are costly, and may also have a significant impact on deposition and catalyst plugging, as well as potential corrosion of downstream equipment.
There is a growing demand to continuously measure the amount of NH3 released at a plant stack as a precursor to particulate matter of 2.5 microns. In the US, it is recommended that operators ensure their optical-based analyzers and systems meet EPA performance specification 18 (PS18). This makes uptime an essential consideration for NH3-based CEMS applications.

In this episode, application experts discuss gas analysis for continuous ammonia (NH3) monitoring in combustion emissions.
In the contemporary age of increasing environmental consciousness, the reduction of Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) emissions is becoming an essential requirement. NOx, a collective term for nitric oxide (NO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2), is produced when excess nitrogen and oxygen react during combustion, particularly at high temperatures. The effective control of NOx emissions is critical not only to meet legislative requirements and avoid fines but also to enhance the efficiency of a combustion process.
The typical method for eliminating waste NOx in power plants and other combustion processes, also known as the DeNOx process, involves selective catalytic reduction (SCR) or selective non-catalytic reduction (SNCR). Both these methods use ammonia (NH3) or NH3 in the form of urea, which reacts with NOx on a catalyst surface to form water (H2O) and nitrogen (N2). However, maintaining optimal conditions is crucial to avoid surplus unreacted NH3, also known as ammonia slip.
The accurate measurement of ammonia slip is essential for several reasons, including cost efficiency, impact on downstream equipment, and diagnostic information about the SCR/SNCR system’s functioning. Yet, due to factors like the reactive nature of NH3, the presence of sulfur dioxide (SO2), water (H2O), and dust, measuring ammonia slip has been challenging.
Advanced Tunable Diode Laser (TDL) technology offers an effective solution for accurate ammonia slip control. It involves a diode laser light source, transmitting and receiving optics, and a detector, allowing in-situ, cross-duct measurements. This technology enables the calculation of gas concentration from the gas absorption line shape. As a result, TDL provides more accurate and average concentration readings compared to extractive methods. Moreover, the TDL method eliminates complications such as contaminant problems posed by dust, heat, and water, thus reducing downtime required for cleaning extractive systems.
Leveraging TDL technology, the SERVOTOUGH Laser 3 Plus Environmental (Laser 3 Plus deNOx ammonia) is designed to deliver accurate NH3 measurements in DeNOx processes. This compact gas monitor can be installed directly into process ducts, ideal for monitoring ammonia slip during NOx reduction processes like SCR or SNCR. In addition to the non-depleting measurement offered by TDL technology, the Laser 3 Plus Environmental provides industry-leading installation flexibility with cost and performance benefits.
In the United States, the demand for continuous measurement of NH3 released at plant stacks is growing, despite the absence of national regulation by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Certain states have begun setting their own performance requirements, like California, which is considering lower NOx emissions limits and additional NH3 limits. The EPA strongly recommends adherence to performance specification 18 (PS18), intended for all future regulations for optical-based analyzers used in continuous emissions monitoring systems (CEMS). Furthermore, regulatory obligations necessitate high uptime of the CEMS equipment, and any unreported data can lead to severe fines.
The Laser 3 Plus Environmental’s reliable performance (Laser3 Plus deNOx ammonia), combined with its auto-validation software capabilities, makes it an ideal solution for meeting the rigorous regulatory requirements of CEMS applications. It offers low maintenance and operational costs, leading to a low lifetime ownership cost, while providing uptime higher than 90%. Furthermore, Servomex provides comprehensive support, including a hot-swap program for rapid replacements.
Innovations in the field of environmental gas analysis have taken major strides with the introduction of SERVOTOUGH Laser 3 Plus DeNOx NH3. This powerful new analyzer, equipped with state-of-the-art Tunable Diode Laser Spectroscopy (TDLS) technology, brings forth an innovative approach to environmental gas analysis. It is specifically optimized for ammonia slip (DeNOx) and emissions applications, such as process heaters, incinerators, power stations, furnaces, thermal crackers, and thermal oxidizers.
The Laser 3 Plus DeNOx NH3 is capable of withstanding process temperatures up to 500°C (932°F). It offers a low detection limit and negligible zero drift, making it a reliable tool for maintaining accurate measurements over a long period of time. Further boosting its utility, the Laser 3 Plus only requires calibration once every twelve months.
Designed with a compact structure, the Laser 3 Plus is capable of performing in high particulate environments, providing great flexibility for different application contexts. It can handle path lengths ranging from 0.7m to 10m (2.3-33ft), and ensures minimal cross interference. The diversity in mounting options makes it ideal for ducts, stacks, and reactor installations.
Easy installation and operation are a given with the Laser 3 Plus. It is robust, reliable, and offers significant space saving. Furthermore, it supports digital communications via Modbus over Ethernet, and features a user-friendly interface and rapid disconnect system for easy calibration.
The Laser 3 Plus brings a reduced total cost of ownership, thanks to its non-depleting TDL technology, absence of moving parts and consumables, and the elimination of a sample conditioning system, which significantly lowers maintenance costs.
The Laser 3 Plus complies with ATEX, IECEx, and North American hazardous area approvals. It is certified for both gases and dust and comes with an IP66 and CE approved rating.
Servomex has approached TDL analysis with a fresh perspective, creating an analyzer that’s only a fraction of the size without compromising on performance. The result is TDL analysis
that is easier and faster to install, saving valuable space while enabling greater installation flexibility.
The Laser 3 Plus works hard to reduce costs at all stages. In addition to the immediate advantages of TDL technology, its compact design greatly reduces installation time. The advanced Wavelength Modulation Spectroscopy processing software eliminates drift over extended operational periods, ensuring reliable and accurate operation.
The SERVOTOUGH Laser 3 Plus DeNOx NH3 is equipped to measure NH3, utilizing Single Line Tunable Diode Laser Spectroscopy technology. It offers a response time of less than 30 seconds, making it an efficient tool in critical processes.
Moreover, the Laser 3 Plus DeNOx NH3 has excellent operating environment parameters. It operates within a temperature range of -20°C to +65°C (-4°F to +149°F), can handle a maximum altitude of 4000m (13,120ft) and is functional within 10 minutes of setup.
In terms of physical aspects, the transmitter and receiver are light and compact, weighing 2kg (4.4lbs) and 1.6kg (3.52lbs), respectively.
The Laser 3 Plus has been approved for use in process hazardous area zones no greater than Zone 2 or Zone 21, and complies with all applicable EC Directives.
