Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) scientists are looking for industry partners to develop and commercialize sulfur-resistant, high-temperature, solid-state gas sensors using patented chemically modified terbium-yttrium-zirconium oxide (Tb-YSZ) ceramic coatings.
LANL gas sensors can be used to monitor the presence and concentration of O2, CO, NOx, and hydrocarbon with superior selectivity in most environments, especially in corrosive and high temperature settings.
LANL's solid-state gas sensors are accurate, reliable, and inexpensive to produce, and can last 40 times longer than competitive technologies. Potential applications include monitoring flue gas, coal- and oil-fired industrial boilers, process heaters and furnaces that use waste gases, and spent-acid furnaces.
