Zusammenfassung:A method for monitoring a combustion process in the infrared wavelength range includes using a laser, which transmits a laser light beam along a measurement path in a certain wavelength range, which is selected in such a way that a gas therein to be detected in the combustion process has an absorption line, and that the emission wavelength of the laser detects the absorption line of the gas to be detected upon the tuning in the selected wavelength range. The concentration of the gas is determined as a function of the absorbed energy of the laser light beam. The intensity of the laser light beam is detected and is analyzed in order to determine the existence of a flame in the combustion process, and/or the quality of the flame.
