Training course - Metrology for trace water in ultra-pure process gases
We are pleased to invite you to the event that will take place on March 7, 2024, entitled "Metrology for trace water in ultra-pure process gases", an interesting day of in-depth study dedicated to the analysis of moisture in process gases and to the metrological infrastructure that ensures the traceability of measurements. It will be an opportunity to present some significant results achieved within the framework of the European project PROMETH2O (www.prometh2o.eu).
The event will be structured in two parts: a theoretical session in the morning to be held at the Golf Club Settimo, and a practical session in the afternoon at the Nippon Gases plant in Chivasso, an industrial partner of the PROMETH2O project.
The detailed program of the day is enclosed to this post. To register for the event, please use the following link.

EURAMET Summer School on Thermal Metrology
A second edition of Euramet Summer School on Thermal Metrology is organized at MIRS/UL-FE/LMK, Ljubljana, from 11-15 September 2023.
The Summer School will give metrologists new to the field of temperature and humidity measurements an introductory overview of the current international metrology standards, followed by more detailed insight about the thermal metrology disciplines with the aim to prepare them for their future work.
The registration is open, register by 21 April 2023. However, the registration may be closed earlier if all available places are filled.
Participation will be confirmed by 25 April 2023.

Installation new magnetic suspension balance at VSL
Within the PrometH2O project VSL is developing a method to generate moisture in the range of 50 nmol/mol up to 5 μmol/mol based on permeation (ISO 6145-10) and dynamic dilution with thermal mass-flow controllers (ISO 6145-7).
For this goal, a new magnetic suspension balance has been installed in the VSL laboratories (see photo) that will be used to accurately determine the mass loss of the water permeation tube.

Development of a low-frost point humidity generator at INRIM
INRIM has developed a low-frost point humidity generator to cover the trace water measurement range. The standard generator has been commissioned and validated in the frost point temperature range from -105 °C to -65 °C up to 0.65 MPa in nitrogen and argon, thus covering the full amount fraction range expected by PROMETH2O project (i.e., from 5 nmol/mol to 5 μmol/mol).
The generator, now in operation, meets and exceeds the expected performance targets and a thorough characterization is underway aiming to estimate the combined uncertainty. The capability is the first in Europe and among the few worldwide.

Publishable Summary for 20IND06 PROMETH2O
The project started on June 1, 2021 for a period of 36 months.
The project will fill the knowledge gap regarding the metrological traceability - by developing traceable and improved measurement methods at challenging amount fractions between 5 ppm and 5 ppb for use in the production of pure process gases - and will demonstrate its applicability in the gas industry.
