Exhaust and Inflame Gas Analyser (3 Lots)
Authority: University of Sheffield (Education)
What is being bought3 lots · detail below
Published requirement descriptionTo support overall fundamental and applied research activity, proposals are requested for a
gas analysis system for exhaust and inflame gas composition measurements to be utilised
across all combustion facilities on site as well as potentially other offsite facilities.
This requirement is divided into 3 individual Lots.
- LOT 1: Focuses on standard combustion gases and inflame measurements
- LOT 2: Covers additional requirements for hydrogen and methane analysis for process gas
- LOT 3: Covers ultra low level (ppb) trace gas analysis of sulphur compounds in natural gas, CO2 stream or flue gas

To support overall fundamental and applied research activity, proposals are requested for a gas analysis system for exhaust and inflame gas composition measurements to be utilised across all combustion facilities on site as well as potentially other offsite facilities.
The tender is divided into separate Lots:
- LOT 1: Focuses on standard combustion gases and inflame measurements (ideally including space for additional analyser under Lot 2 and Lot 3). The system needs to be able to measure gases according to 'Table 2.1 - LOT 1 gas analysers required'
- LOT 2: Covers additional requirements for hydrogen and methane analysis for process gas monitoring (as a standalone analyser or integrated into LOT 1). With gas concentration
encountered summarised in "Table 2.2. Approximate gas compositions encountered on site (typically values/upper ranges)" in the light blue boxes.
- LOT 3: Covers ultra low level (ppb) trace gas analysis of sulphur compounds in natural gas, CO2 stream or flue gas, to include at the lowest range approximately 0-50ppb (as a standalone analyser or integrated into LOT 1 or LOT 2).
The purpose of this analyser is process monitoring of MCFC feed gas quality. The species of interests include SO2 (essential requirement), and it is an advantage if it can also measure
other sulphur containing compounds such as: H2S, COS, CS2.
With gas concentration encountered summarised in "Table 2.2. Approximate gas compositions encountered on site (typically values/upper ranges)" in the light blue boxes
