The present invention discloses a tunnel toxic-and-harmful-gas deep-hole detection device and method. The tunnel toxic-and-harmful-gas deep-hole detection device comprises a detector, a lifter, and a control terminal, which are sequentially connected. The control terminal controls the lifter to achieve movement of the lifter. The detector comprises a shell with a hollow interior and two opened ends. An air inlet is formed in the outer wall of the shell. A gas detector and a gas sampler are arranged in the shell, and the air inlet is located therebetween. The tunnel toxic-and-harmful-gas deep-hole detection method comprises two steps, namely a gas detection step and a gas sampling step. The present invention can effectively detect components and concentrations of various gases in a drill hole, wherein the detection data is real-time and accurate.

The invention relates to a method, a system and a computer program product for ascertaining a plant property of a useful plant in a field, wherein external data concerning the useful plant are stored in a memory unit, wherein a measurement device ascertains a raw measured value relating to at least one plant property, and wherein a calibrated or corrected value for the plant property is ascertained on the basis of the raw measured value taking account of the external data from the memory unit.

Exemplary embodiments are directed to a system for sampling sub-slab soil gas having an adaptor body that includes a first barbed portion, a collar portion, a second barbed portion, an internal cavity that axially passes through the length of the adaptor body, and a coupling portion. The system further includes one or more extensions such as a fitting extension, a filter extension, a sieve extension and a length extension, each of which are threadably retainable with the coupling portion of the adaptor body.

A system and method for environmental sampling and analysis system are described. The system and method provide for concurrent collection and sampling of subsurface materials and sensing of one or more subsurface environmental conditions. In particular, the system and method provide for high resolution environmental site characterization.

An unmanned aerial vehicle detector includes an unmanned aerial vehicle, a pump/detector combination on the unmanned aerial vehicle and a tube including a rigid section and a flexible section. The tube is connected at a proximal end to the pump/detector combination. The pump/detector combination is configured to draw gas samples from a distal end of the tube to the detector and to detect a level of a gas drawn from within a prescribed distance above ground level.

Embodiments of the invention include systems and methods for capturing crowd wisdom to be tested for individualized treatment plans. These systems and methods include data mining crowd sourced health related information and unstructured medical narratives and storytelling to identify treatment plans and general techniques that individuals with chronic diseases/symptoms, including but not limited to IBD and other immune invisible neglected and stigmatized diseases, use to improve their general health and wellbeing. A system for testing the treatments effectiveness in a population and then in an individual is also disclosed.

An apparatus for sampling landfill gas from a landfill flowing through a pipe. The apparatus may comprise: an enclosure configured to receive a section of the pipe; a gas sampling port in the section of the pipe; at least one sensor device disposed in a region of the enclosure, the at least one sensor being coupled to the section of the pipe through the gas sampling port; and thermal insulation positioned to retain heat from the section of the pipe in the region of the enclosure. A method of operating a landfill gas recovery system. The method may comprise: flowing gas from a well riser pipe through a sampling subsystem to a collection system; and heating a portion of the sampling subsystem with the gas flowing from the well riser pipe to the collection system.

Methods and systems for collecting, transporting and extracting high quality fluid samples for laboratory analyses are disclosed. The systems and methods disclosed are especially important for collecting fluid samples in a manner that most closely resembles the fluids as captured and safely maintains the samples during transportation and extraction at the laboratory.

Exemplary embodiments are directed to a system for sampling sub-slab soil gas having an adaptor body that includes a first barbed portion, a collar portion, a second barbed portion, an internal cavity that axially passes through the length of the adaptor body, and a coupling portion. The system further includes one or more extensions such as a fitting extension, a filter extension, a sieve extension and a length extension, each of which are threadably retainable with the coupling portion of the adaptor body.

A system can flush a drilling fluid sample with a hydrocarbon blend, which includes a determined concentration of at least one chemical species to generate a flushed drilling fluid sample. The system can extract a dissolved gas from the flushed drilling fluid sample. The system can determine a concentration over time of at least one chemical species of the dissolved gas. The system can generate an area per concentration curve based on the concentration over time of the at least one chemical species. The system can determine at least one concentration value of the at least one chemical species. The system can modify the at least one concentration value based on the area per concentration curve. The system can then correct bias caused by the gas extractor and fluid sampling system.
