Scentroid's Solution for

Air Quality Monitoring & Gas Leak Inspection

Petroleum refining remains one of the largest industries in the world and serves as a valuable component of the national economy. However, environmental hazards associated with Oil and Gas refineries have caused increased concern for communities in close proximity.

The process of refining oil involves a series of steps including the separation and blending of petroleum products. This could lead to a variety of fugitive emissions and uncontrolled air quality hazards.

Every year, the regulator calculates an emissions limit for each company. If a company calculates that they have emitted in excess of that limit, they must pay a penalty for each ton emitted in excess.

We provide a comprehensive approach to help you monitor gas emission closely so you can meet Oil & Gas Regulations in an effortless manner: Stationary Equipment and Drone-Based Gas Leak Patrol.

Stationary Equipment

Scentroid’s CTair and CTmini continuous monitoring of air quality in and around your facility, providing valuable data on the overall level and distribution of pollution.

Achieve Your Gas Emission Goal

Drone-Based
Gas Leak Patrol

Our Drone-Based mobile monitoring device DR2000 offers an additional layer of monitoring, enabling the detection of hot-spots in hazardous and hard-to-reach areas, to help you inspect any gas leak. The DR2000 is capable of finding the location of the gas leak and how far it may have travelled. For more advanced leak detection, the DR2000 can perform a full analysis of all potential leak sites.

How Can Scentroid's Service Help with

Completing the Regulatory Compliance?

Environmental Impact Assessment
(Air and Odour)

A comprehensive site overview. Scentroid will formulate a sampling plan and, using a team of qualified engineers and technicians, take analytical and olfactometric measurements and samples at key locations. Scentroid analyzes samples on-site using portable analyzers and olfactometers before being shipped to a comprehensive analytical (ISO 17025) and stationary olfactometric laboratory (EN13725).

After analyzing the samples, the data experiences post-processing and is compared against pertinent regulations, guidelines and standards. If exceedance of pollutants is found, Scentroid will recommend suitable approaches in order to fulfill environmental compliance. Optional: atmospheric dispersion modelling can be included in the environmental impact assessment.

Atmospheric Dispersion Modelling

Determine the severity and extent of the pollutant/odour emissions from your facility. Simulations are processed using the US-EPA designed and approved, AERMOD modelling suite.

Odor Analysis

Send us your sample bags and our Olfactometric Laboratory will determine their odor concentration in accordance to EN13725:2022, ASTM E679-04, NVN2820, VDI 3881, GB/T14675-93 and/or AS 4323.3.

Significant pipeline incidents have cost more than $11 billion in damage over the last 20 years (2002-2021). Additionally, they spent an average of $81,377,721 to the public for property damages.
Pipeline & Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA), 2022
Methane leaks in 2021 from fossil fuel operations, if captured and marketed, would have made an additional 180 billion cubic metres of gas available to the market. This would have been comfortably enough to ease today’s price pressures.
International Energy Agency (IEA): “Global Methane Tracker 2022”, 2022
Environmental penalties can range from $1,000 per day for less serious violations such as failure to submit a quarterly report, to $100,000 per day for the most serious violations, including a spill with a significant impact.
Ontario.ca , “Environmental penalties”, 2024
Methane, the major gas compound. So, when natural gas leaks, mostly methane is released. As a climate pollutant, methane is over 80 times more potent than CO2 across a 20-year period.

SIMS3

Sensor Information Management System

SIMS3 sensor information management software,  is our all-inclusive software used to view and analyze historical data, run diagnostics, make predictions, and configure various settings for your supported Scentroid device. It offers a complete and integrated suite for ambient air chemical analysis and odor management. SIMS3 can collect data from thousands of devices covering an entire area, using a unique and highly intuitive facility control system.

Powered by
Artificial Intelligence

SIMS3 transforms air quality monitoring and air dispersion modeling with the power of AI. Our user-friendly interface offers intuitive access to a range of features including pollutant threat assessment, air quality alerts, historical data analysis, sample tracking, plume detection, empowering users of all levels to conduct sophisticated data analytics effortlessly.

Mathematical simulation of how air pollutants disperse in the ambient atmosphere. It is performed with a computer simulation of a pollutant dispersion model.

SIMS3 Analytics

View data in several formats including temporal view, statistical view, AQI Analysis view, and heat map.

Event Analytics

Take your analytic capabilities even further by analyzing your recorded events, event types, and overall event activity. In this module, you will be able to determine your most triggered event type and the days with the highest recorded activity.

We have the database that lists, by source, the amount of air pollutants discharged into the atmosphere during a specific time period.

Seek advice from our odour monitor experts and environmental consultants to help you improve the accuracy and reliability of your monitoring projects.

Air quality mapping, model verification, and analysis of potentially dangerous sites have all now been made possible. While in flight, built-in chemical sensors can provide remote monitoring.

Ground level readings are used by SIMS3 to conduct back-trajectory to identify unknown sources. Continuous pollution data and field olfactometric data are used along with meteorological data to triangulate the exact location of an odour source.

Workers in the oil and gas industries face the risk of fire and explosion due to ignition of flammable vapors or gases. Our AQmini Monitor will detect whenever a particular room’s air quality drops to below optimal levels.

We can assist with continuously monitoring the air quality around the boundary of your facility. This is typically used in settings where emissions and pollutants may potentially affect a community.

Scentroid is capable of providing you and your facility with several reports ranging from SIMS3 outputs, to odour testing results based on your facility’s requirements. Several report types can be autogenerated using our SIMS3 platform.
