Fluorimeter Dye Tracing
Chelsea Technologies Group has been providing fluorimeters, under both purchase and hire arrangements, to surveying companies for many years. Traditional applications have been time-and-travel studies of rivers, the main contractor principally being the Environment Agency of England & Wales. Recently, Dynamco Limited (UK) has deployed equipment to conduct dye tracing experiments in rivers. This work, carried out on behalf of South East Water and the Environment Agency, required the installation of self-powered AQUApacks (the on-board fluorimeter configured for detection of Rhodamine WT) at specific points along the river.
