Abstract

A apparatusfor measuring ammonia concentration includes an electromotive force acquisition sectionconfigured to acquire information about an electromotive force EMF of a mixed potential cellwhile a detection electrodeis exposed to a target gas, an oxygen concentration acquisition sectionconfigured to acquire information about oxygen concentration pin the target gas, and a control section. The control sectionderives ammonia concentration pin the target gas from the acquired information about the electromotive force EMF, the acquired information about the oxygen concentration p, and the relationship represented by formula (1):EMF=α log()−β log()+  (1)where α, β, and B each represent a constant, and a and b each represent any base (provided that a≠1, a>0, b≠1, and b>0).
