It is often difficult to determine the exact cause of digester problems. Monitoring volatile solids loading, total gas production, volatile acids concentration in the digesting sludge, and percentage of carbon dioxide in the head gases are the methods most frequently employed to give advance warning of pending failure.  8, record 1, English, - volatile%20solids

A sample is heated to approximately 900°C so that all the oxygen, hydrogen, sulfur and nitrogen are released as volatile matter (VM). The amount of residual char remaining is inversely proportional to the volatile matter and is called the amount of fixed carbon (FC).  4, record 1, English, - volatile%20solids

Do not confuse the three terms "detector", "sensor" and "monitor." A detector (in French: "détecteur") is used to detect the presence of anything liable to escape observation, to indicate any deviation from normal conditions, or the like; a sensor (in French: "capteur") gives a signal for the detection or measurement of a physical property to which it responds, it is a part of a detector; a monitor (in French: "appareil de surveillance en continu") measures or tests at intervals, especially for the purpose of regulation or control.  5, record 2, English, - gas%20sensor

Ne pas confondre les termes «détecteur», «capteur» et «appareil de surveillance (en continu)» (en médecine : «moniteur»). Un détecteur (en anglais : «detector») décèle, révèle la présence d'un corps, d'un phénomène caché (gaz, radiation, phénomène électrique, vibration, etc.); un capteur constitue l'élément sensible d'un détecteur qui permet de traduire un phénomène physique, chimique ou biologique en une grandeur mesurable, en le représentant sous la forme d'un signal (généralement électrique); un appareil de surveillance en continu (moniteur, en médecine, en anglais : «monitor») effectue, comme son nom l'indique, des mesures en continu à des périodes données.  2, record 2, French, - capteur%20de%20gaz
