Passive Wireless Surface Acoustic Wave Sensors for Methane Leakage and Corrosion Monitoring in Pipelines
Year: 2024
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: Corrosion Sensing Motivation• Conventional monitoring techniques identify leaks and events once they have occurred but are limited in capability to identify failures before they occur.• Continuous and real-time monitoring technologies are helpful to better identify, locate, and quantify methane leaks and corrosion events.• Passive wireless sensors and their network are emerging platforms for remote and real-time monitoring of long pipelines where human access is a challenge.• We help operators to reduce monitoring costs and simplify the inspection process by developing a low-maintenance, remote, and real-time capable multiparameter monitoring tool. Proposed Wireless Passive Sensor Technology for Pipelines• Radio frequency (RF) Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) microdevices with wireless capability.• Matured technology with numerous applications including mobile communications, remote control, automotive sector, and sensors and actuators.• Multi-parameter sensing capability (temperature, pressure,
