Case studies

Proof, not promises.

A selection of recent Lioncrown deployments — the problem, the instruments we installed, and the measurable outcome.

CS-01Cement Manufacturing
01

Faster, more reliable stack measurements for a major cement plant.

The problem

A 1.8 Mt/y cement plant was running three independent stack analyzers with inconsistent calibration and frequent downtime.

Hardware deployed
  • · LC-CEMS-01 (×3)
  • · LC-OPC-03
  • · Sample conditioning trains
  • · On-site commissioning
Parameters monitored

SO₂ · NOₓ · CO · PM · Opacity

Outcome

Stable, certified readings across all three stacks; zero unplanned analyzer downtime in 14 months.

CS-02Smart City · Accra
02

12-station ambient air quality network for a metropolitan assembly.

The problem

Lack of granular AQI data across Accra hindered traffic and policy decisions, with only one reference station available city-wide.

Hardware deployed
  • · LC-AQMS-22 (×12)
  • · Meteorological co-location
  • · On-site operator training
Parameters monitored

PM2.5 · PM10 · NO₂ · O₃ · SO₂

Outcome

City-wide reference coverage in place; assembly uses station data to plan low-emission zones.

CS-03Gold Mining
03

Off-grid fence-line dust & noise monitoring for an open-pit mine.

The problem

A Western Region mine faced community complaints over fugitive dust and blast noise across an 18 km perimeter, with no grid power available.

Hardware deployed
  • · LC-PM-08 (×6)
  • · Class-1 noise monitors (×6)
  • · Solar + LoRaWAN backhaul
Parameters monitored

PM10 · PM2.5 · dB(A) · Wind

Outcome

92% drop in unresolved complaints; wind-gated alerts triggered watering trucks automatically.

CS-04Oil & Gas
04

Fugitive VOC programme at a coastal storage terminal.

The problem

A bulk fuel terminal needed LDAR coverage and methane leak detection across 14 tank farms inside an ATEX-classified area.

Hardware deployed
  • · LC-VOC-05 (×9)
  • · Methane sniffer survey
  • · ATEX-rated enclosures
Parameters monitored

TVOC · CH₄ · Benzene

Outcome

3 previously undetected leaks fixed in week one; annual emission inventory cut by 31%.
