| | AUG - SEPT 20238IN MY OPINIONEmerging technologies are not only revolutionizing LDAR programs, but they are paving the path for a future where our communities can breathe cleaner, healthier airAs the need for oil and gas products increases worldwide, and efforts to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions remains a top priority for many industries, the reliance on leak detection and repair (LDAR) services will only grow. Many new technologies are beginning to be used in conjunction with optical gas imagery (OGI) to detect emission and equipment leaks and improve LDAR programs. OGI uses a specialized sensor to detect thermal energy, allowing technicians to see gasses otherwise invisible to the naked eye. OGI-based LDAR programs have been discovered to be more efficient and detect more fugitive emissions than conventional Method 21-based DETECTING A CLEANER FUTURE WITH EMERGING AIR QUALITY TECHNOLOGYTerence Trefiak, VP, Montrose Environmental GroupByTerence TrefiakQuickbytesAbout 80 percent of wastewater worldwide flows back into the ecosystem without being treated or reused. That means 1.8 billion people use a contaminated source of drinking water.
