For this reason, measuring devices need to be extremely sensitive, highly accurate as well as being able to withstand the harsh industrial environment. Meanwhile different types of mercury monitoring systems are available. But how should the ideal system perform in terms of performance and acceptable low maintenance for the plant operator?
