The analyzer, developed by Iranian tech firms ArmadPars and Binab
Sanjesh Damavand, utilizes tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy (TDLAS)
to deliver real-time, high-precision monitoring of carbon dioxide levels.
According to Arvand’s technical team, the presence of CO₂ in the brine solution lowers
pH levels, causes scaling, accelerates corrosion, and ultimately impairs
equipment efficiency. The implementation of the analyzer has significantly
reduced scaling, improved electrolysis efficiency, and cut the use of energy
and chemicals.
The system was designed and built in under six months and features a
durable Hastelloy body and a Fused Silica window, offering high accuracy and
rapid response times. It is regarded as a viable replacement for imported gas
chromatography (GC) systems, eliminating the need for carrier gases and
specialized operators.
The initiative marks a broader push by Iran’s petrochemical sector to
localize advanced instrumentation and reduce dependency on foreign technology,
particularly amid ongoing international sanctions.
