Abstract

CarbonHIGS is a 2D imager designed to measure the enhancement of CO2 concentration in emission plumes from power plants. The origin of HIGS, and the physics of the working principle will be explained. Two possible implementations of HIGS will be presented, i.e. one that uses power splitting while the other one uses polarization splitting. The characteristics of these implementations will be discussed. In the final part of this paper the preliminary design of the CarbonHIGS system will be shown.
