This Small Innovation Technology Transfer (STTR) project will demonstrate the utility of infrared planar array technology to study water pollutants such as industrial contaminants and biological impurities. It proposes to optimize the design and construction of a compact, high-sensitivity, double beam infrared instrument based on focal plane array detection, which meets or exceeds performance standards of commercially available Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) solutions and is able to operate in ambient environments to provide measurements of dilute concentrations of organic and biological contaminants.If successful the outcome of this project will enable real time effluent detection from a manufacturing site such as that found at chemical companies who could realize tangible and intangible savings from being able to pro-actively identify and measure the presence of pollutants. A portable Planar Array Infrared (PA-IR) spectrograph could be used to measure contaminants in rivers, streams and ponds, thereby providing ?real time? feedback on changes in the environment. The World Laboratory Analytical Instrument Market is estimated to be $9.36B in 2008. IR spectroscopy is estimated to be $738MM.

这个小型创新技术转移(STTR)项目将展示红外平面阵列技术在研究工业污染物和生物杂质等水污染物方面的应用。它建议优化设计和构造一种基于焦平面阵列检测的紧凑型、高灵敏度、双光束红外仪器，该仪器达到或超过商用傅立叶变换红外光谱(FT-IR)解决方案的性能标准，并能够在环境中运行，提供有机和生物污染物稀释浓度的测量。如果该项目成功，该项目的结果将能够从制造现场实时检测流出物，例如化学公司，能够通过能够主动识别和测量污染物的存在来实现有形和无形的节省。便携式平面阵列红外光谱仪可用于测量河流、溪流和池塘中的污染物，从而提供实时？对环境变化的反馈。2008年世界实验室分析仪器市场估计为93.6亿美元。红外光谱分析估计为7.38亿美元。
