Wastewater treatment plants significantly contribute to greenhouse gas emissions, including nitrous oxide (N2O), carbon dioxide (CO2), and methane (CH4). Current methods measure these emissions typically target specific molecular compounds, providing limited scope potentially incomplete profiles. Here, we show an innovative ultra-broadband coherent open-path spectroscopy (COPS) system capable of simultaneously monitoring multiple gases. This novel approach combines Fourier transform with a coherent, mid-infrared light source spanning 2-11.5 μm at approximately 3 W power. Positioned above aeration tank, the COPS selectively detected absorption signatures for CH4, CO2, N2O, ammonia (NH3), monoxide (CO), water vapor (H2O), enabling real-time, path-integrated concentration measurements temporal resolution 40 s. Elevated concentrations CH4 CO2 were clearly identified within emission plumes traversing beam path tank. Additionally, patterns closely tracked variations in ammonium loading from incoming wastewater, whereas correlated strongly oxygen introduced during aeration. Measurements NH3, CO stable aligned traditional point-based commercial analyzers. Our findings demonstrate that offers robust, comprehensive solution simultaneous real-time gases complex heterogeneous environments. capability enhances atmospheric industrial assessments, transforming quantification environmental management.
