Over the last several years there has been renewed interest in the use of open-path Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy for a variety of air monitoring applications. The intersect has been motivated by the need for new technology to address the regulator requirements of the Clean Air Act Amendment of 1990. Interest has been expressed in exploring the applications of this technology to locate fugitive-source emissions and measuring total emissions from industrial facilities
