Automated Hyperspectral Imaging from Afar: Identifying Gas Leaks Early and at the Source

Presented at 2017 Spring Conference held at Hilton Garden Inn, Milan North on 17 - 19 May 2017 by Allison L. Sawyer, CEO Rebellion Photonics
Explosions due to hydrocarbon gas leaks have claimed hundreds of lives and cost billions of dollars in repair and retribution. Early detection of gas leaks can help to avoid such events, thereby protecting workers and preventing destruction of equipment. In this study, the novel technique of snapshot hyperspectral gas cloud imaging (GCI) was applied to detect and quantify gas leaks in real time with high specificity at a range of 1500m with ambient temperature of 23°C and wind gusts of 10MPH (16km/h). The snapshot GCI camera detected and identified a propylene release with a cross section of approximately 1 m2.
