1. A method for calibrating a volatile organic compound (VOC) detector, comprising:

  • receiving an initiation request indicating a gas concentration level amount to be used for calibrating a VOC detector, wherein the VOC detector is configured to test whether valves and other components in petrochemical facilities are leaking;

    providing gas according to the gas concentration level amount to the VOC detector;

    providing the VOC detector with the gas concentration level amount via a wireless connection; and

    receiving a calibration log from the VOC detector via the wireless connection, wherein the calibration log comprises an identifier of the VOC detector, the gas concentration level amount, an electronic signature of the provided gas, a date indicating when the VOC detector received the gas concentration level amount and the gas according to the gas concentration level amount, wherein the electronic signature is derived by combusting the provided gas.
