Precise gas analysis for industry

Today more than ever, industrial processes that use gases as an energy source, process medium or quality factor require precise, reliable and continuously available measurement data. As a leading provider of technologies for calorific value measurement, Wobbe index determination and industrial gas analysis, UNION Instruments GmbH has been supplying highly specialized solutions for a wide range of applications – worldwide and for decades.

Our measurement and analysis systems play a central role in industries where gas quality, energy efficiency, process stability and safety are directly decisive for profitability and performance. In addition to traditional industries such as power generation, chemicals and petrochemicals, glass, ceramics and steel, UNION Instruments GmbH today specifically supports operators of biogas plants, sewage treatment plants, biogas processing plants, synthesis gas and hydrogen systems, energy measurement systems and mine gas applications. Even under extreme environmental and operating conditions, our systems help to make processes transparent, control them precisely and optimize them in the long term.

The devices from UNION Instruments GmbH enable the exact determination of calorific value (Hs), heating value (Hi), Wobbe index, specific density, CARI, air demand as well as the continuous monitoring and analysis of process gas flows – even with highly fluctuating gas compositions, such as those occurring in residual gases from chemical processes, substitute gases in the steel industry, biogas and hydrogen applications or in mine gas. Our systems thus create the basis for:

• Increased efficiency through precise control of combustion and production processes

• Cost savings through optimized energy use and reduced shortfalls

• Minimization of emissions thanks to stable and clean combustion processes

• Maximum system availability thanks to reliable real-time information

• Safety optimization in critical industries and potentially explosive atmospheres

From power generation, chemicals and petrochemicals to glass, ceramics, steel, biogas, hydrogen, energy measurement, wastewater treatment plants and thermal recycling processes, UNION Instruments GmbH offers technologies that are precisely tailored to the specific requirements of each industry. Each application poses its own challenges in terms of gas quality, energy efficiency and process control – and our product series provide the right answers.

With a global reference network, decades of experience and measuring systems developed for continuous 24/7 operation in demanding industrial environments, UNION Instruments GmbH is a reliable partner for operators, engineers and plant planners alike.
