Volatile Organic Compound (VOC):
What is VOC:
Volatile Organic Compounds, more commonly known as VOC's consist of a wide variety of organic compounds that are vapor at room temperature. Many different gasses may make up VOC's, and some of those gasses may also be associated with other families of gasses. A complete list of VOC's can be found at the bottom of this page.
Health Risks of VOC's:
VOC's can cause respiratory, allergic, or immune effects...
The Portasens is known as a great ambient air portable gas leak detector that features: - electrochemical smart-cell sensor (which can be calibrated independently of the unit) - available to measure over 30 types of gases - a rugged internal sample pump - excellent accuracy and repeatability - easy to read back-lit LED display - flexible wand for pinpointing leak points - datalogging capabilities - integrated audible alarms
Because of the many attractive features a...
Non-Methane Hydrocarbons:
What are NMHCs:
Non-Methane Volatile Organic Compounds (NMVOCs) are a large variety of chemically different compounds such as benzene, ethanol, formaldehyde, cyclohexane, and acetone. NMVOCs are essentially identical to VOCs , with the exlusion of methane. An important subset of NMVOCs are NMHCs. NMHCs are trace atmospheric components that provide a sink for hydroxyl radicals and control ozone concentration. Exmples of NMHCs are ethane, ethene, propane, pro...
