Kontrol Technologies Corp., a provider of smart buildings and cities has entered into the liquified natural gas (LNG) market to provide continuous emission monitoring and analytics solutions. The primary focus of the solutions is the USA market.
The Company has a long history of providing continuous emissions, compliance and monitoring solutions through its operating subsidiaries. Historically the Company has provided emission technology deployment and solutions to large industrial customers in the oil, gas and cement industries across Canada and the USA. The LNG market opportunity is new revenue vertical for the Company and the majority of interest is in the USA market.
“With our established track record of integrating emission monitoring systems, including analytics and performance, we are able to provide solutions to existing LNG customers, new LNG developers or municipalities and cities that have a vested interest in ensuring facilities comply with existing regulations,” says Paul Ghezzi, CEO of Kontrol Technologies. “Our turn-key solution includes continuous monitoring remotely, sampling in real-time and providing additional enhanced testing supported by data and analytics.”
Monitoring environmental impacts
LNG facilities and the associated development of new facilities may be a source of harmful pollutants or emissions, such as volatile organic compounds (VOCs), nitrogen oxides (NOx), methane (CH4), sulfur dioxide (SO2) and particulate matter (PM). The ability to monitor, validate and quantify harmful pollutants or emissions is typically a regulatory requirement which may vary by region.
Carbon neutral potential
The International Group of Liquefied Natural Gas Importers (GIIGNL) has created a framework for carbon neutrality. For a company to declare its shipment of LNG is carbon neutral, it would need to show transparent emissions data, make the best efforts to reduce emissions at its operations and use offsets for any remaining emissions for the cargo’s lifecycle, including scope 3 emissions, or those generated when the customer uses the fuel.
