The system is also capable in determining the molar absorptivity of a liquid or solid medium. Nevertheless, any kind of light is known to experience scattering that is resulted from non-uniformity of the medium that the light passes through. In this paper the occurrence of light scattering in laser attenuation system for different medium is investigated. The laser attenuation system is developed and calibrated using commercial light filters of known densities. The occurrence of scattering and its significance is studied using iodine and water sprays. The study reveals that a total of about 13 of the light is scattered elsewhere. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd. date: 2014 publisher: Elsevier Ltd official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84905680025&doi=10.1016%2fj.egypro.2014.06.010&partnerID=40&md5=cf6c30d2e21bc24cf0873db4e13597df id_number: 10.1016/j.egypro.2014.06.010 full_text_status: none publication: Energy Procedia volume: 50 place_of_pub: Beirut pagerange: 79-86 refereed: TRUE issn: 18766102 citation: Sulaiman, S.A. and Ahmed Ismail, A.K.A. and Noor Azman, M.N.F.
