DESCRIPTION:Dr. TJ RonningenElectrical and Computer EngineeringOhio State U
 niversityAbstractLeaks in natural gas distribution systems present safety 
 and environmental risks. Commercially available handheld detectors primari
 ly use chemical analysis techniques that require the operator to be in the
  midst of the methane cloud\, putting the operator at risk to identify the
  hazard. Methane can also be detected from a distance using infrared spect
 roscopy. We have demonstrated and assessed two new approaches to detecting
  and imaging natural gas plumes using active approaches that combine infra
 red lasers and imagers. In lab demonstrations\, we have successfully image
 d the evolution of a methane plume in real time. I will discuss this appli
 cation of infrared imaging and our group’s larger efforts to advance infra
 red detectors and imagers for a variety of applications.BioDr. TJ Ronninge
 n is a Research Scientist in the Electrical and Computer Engineering depar
 tment at the Ohio State University. TJ works on applied spectroscopy and s
 ensor development. He develops techniques\, hardware systems\, and softwar
 e to detect target materials in complex environments\, such as battlefield
 s\, subway stations\, food production facilities\, and surgical interventi
 ons. TJ’s work and collaborations span disciplines of biology\, medicine\,
  applied mathematics\, chemistry\, physics\, and engineering. TJ’s current
  work focuses on applying novel infrared sensors to solve industrial\, env
 ironmental\, medical\, and security sensor challenges. He earned his PhD i
 n Chemical Physics from Ohio State in 2005 and holds five U.S. patents for
  inventions developed while he was a researcher at Battelle from 2005 to 2
 017.
