Abstract

The overall objective of this research is to survey candidate methane emissions quantification technologies and assess their performance under a range of industrially relevant scenarios. A key focus is placed on the estimation of uncertainty, which is endemic to emissions quantification. Research tasks are divided into four phases: Phase 1 is a survey of candidate emission quantification technologies available to industry and their overall capability and suitability for various emissions scenarios; Phase 2 assesses the performance of candidate technologies through simulations and laboratory-scale measurements; Phase 3 is the planning and execution of field campaigns; and Phase 4 focuses on data analysis and detailed uncertainty quantification.
