Shannon, D W

The monitoring instruments developed and tested with this program include: corrosion rate meters for brine, isobutane and cooling water; electrodeless conductivity to monitor brine quality and detect gases; redox meter to detect air intrusions; pH meter to monitor acidity which is related to both corrosion and scaling; suspended particle meter to monitor solids that could plug injection wells; CO{sub 2} sensor for brine; and leak detectors for the Heber plant. Plans for FY 84 and the instruments still funded are discussed.
