Abstract:
The multi-point simultaneous long-term measurement of CO2 concentration in seawater can provide more-valuable data for further understanding of the spatial and temporal distribution of CO2. Thus, the requirement for a low-cost sensor with high precision, low power consumption, and a small size is becoming urgent. In this work, an in-situ sensor for CO2 detection in seawater, based on a permeable membrane and non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) technology, is developed. The sensor has a small size (Ф 66 mm×124 mm), light weight (0.7 kg in air), low power consumption (<0.9 W), low cost (
Key words:    in-situ sensor    dissolved CO2    long-term measurement    permeable membrane    non-dispersive infrared (NDIR)    low-cost
