Airyx WGA020 Wastewater Gas Analyzer
Real‑time N₂O, CO₂, CH₄ and O₂ emission monitoring in wastewater treatment basins.
Description
The Airyx WGA020 is a wastewater greenhouse gas analyzer that provides long‑term stable, real‑time measurements of N₂O, CH₄, CO₂ and O₂ in wastewater treatment processes.
Gases are captured using a flexible, deployable floating hood system designed for easy field operation. The analyzer requires no gas bottles, reducing operational cost and simplifying deployment.
Airyx’s patent‑pending technology provides:
- background‑corrected emission quantification
- internal zero‑drift reduction
- cross‑interference correction (CO₂, water vapour)
This ensures high precision, low maintenance effort and reliable continuous monitoring even in demanding wastewater environments.
Use Cases
- Ideal N₂O emission monitoring system for denitrification basins
- Greenhouse gas emission reporting for wastewater treatment plants
- Process optimisation using real‑time gas emission data
- Compliance and regulatory monitoring for WWTPs
- Research studies on wastewater greenhouse gas fluxes
Key Features
Real-time continuous measurements
The WGA020 provides continuous, high‑precision real‑time monitoring of N₂O, CH₄ and CO₂ emissions in wastewater treatment processes.
Integrated emission rate calculation
An internal maintenance‑free flow sensor enables automated and accurate emission flux quantification.
No gas bottles required
The system operates without external calibration gas cylinders, reducing operational effort, cost and on‑site logistics.
Automated zero-point calibration and checks
Internal zero‑point correction and cross‑interference validation improve long‑term stability and minimize drift.
Background measurement capability
The WGA020 distinguishes between ambient and process‑related emissions, enabling accurate net‑emission estimation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which gases does the WGA020 measure?
The WGA020 measures N₂O, CH₄, CO₂ and O₂, providing a complete greenhouse gas profile for wastewater treatment applications.
Does the analyzer require gas bottles?
No. The system operates without calibration gas bottles, making it easier to deploy and reducing maintenance and operating costs.
How are emissions captured?
Emissions are collected through a flexible, deployable floating hood designed specifically for wastewater basins. This ensures stable, representative sampling with minimal effort.
Is the WGA020 suitable for long-term monitoring?
Yes. The WGA020 is designed for continuous, year‑round operation with low maintenance requirements, making it ideal for long‑term monitoring campaigns.
Can the system automatically calculate emission fluxes?
Yes. The integrated flow sensor and background correction enable automated and accurate emission flux quantification.
