355-358Fiber optic
sensors to-date is a rapidly growing field with several potential benefits over
the conventional electronic and electrical sensors. Intensity based fiber optic
sensors are conceptually simple, ruggedised and cost-effective as they can be implemented
using less expensive multimode fibers and their assemblies and other
components. The various aspects of design,development and experimental investigations
of an on-line fiber optic H2S gas sensor based on interference free lead
acetate detection technology for industrial flow lines are discussed
