Advanced Laser Light Scattering Monitors for Accurate PM Detection

Reliable, real-time particulate monitoring solutions for diverse industries—designed for precision, performance, and environmental compliance.

Overview

Laser Light Scattering Particulate Monitors offer a powerful and precise method for detecting and measuring airborne particulate matter (PM) concentrations. These advanced systems operate on the principle of forward or side-scattered light detection, using laser beams that interact with airborne particles to calculate size and mass concentrations in real-time. As demand grows for more sensitive, accurate, and non-intrusive air quality monitoring systems, this technology continues to lead the way in performance and dependability. From industrial stack emissions to ambient air monitoring, these monitors are well-suited for environmental compliance, public health, and occupational safety.

Emissions and Stack, a B2B leader in North America, delivers robust, scalable solutions using this technology to help customers meet strict environmental standards and optimize operations with intelligent data and integration-ready systems.

Case Studies

Steel Manufacturing Plant, Indiana, USA

A large steel production facility integrated our laser light scattering monitors to control particulate emissions during high heat rolling operations. Our system enabled real-time tracking of PM10 levels and reduced exceedance incidents by 72%, allowing the client to meet stringent EPA limits and avoid hefty non-compliance penalties.

Biomass Power Plant, Oregon, USA

A biomass facility needed a solution for continuous PM2.5 emissions monitoring. Emissions and Stack provided a high-resolution laser scattering system with data logging and wireless alerts. This allowed the facility to maintain optimal combustion performance while meeting both state and federal emission targets.

Municipal Waste Incinerator, Ontario, Canada

To meet provincial air quality goals, a Canadian municipality deployed our laser monitors in a waste incineration facility. The solution helped measure and mitigate TSP concentrations during high-load cycles. Integration with local air quality systems ensured public transparency and regulatory compliance.
