Continuous air quality monitoring for harmful particulate matter and aerosols
Air pollution is defined by the World Health Organization (WHO) as «contamination of the indoor or outdoor environment by any chemical, physical or biological agent that modifies the natural characteristics of the atmosphere» [1]. When air pollution levels are high, this can lead to respiratory problems, heart disease, and other illnesses (e.g., cancer). It can also cause acid rain, ...

Extension of the agency’s monitoring certification scheme MCERTS to include continuous ambient air quality monitoring instruments
ABSTRACT The Environment Agency launched its Monitoring Certification Scheme MCERTS for continuous emission monitoring systems (CEMs) for industrial stacks at CEM98. At the time the Agency referred to its plans to broaden the Scheme later to include other monitoring activities. This paper presents details of the proposed extension of MCERTS to cover continuous ambient air quality monitoring ...

Ambient Air Quality Analysis of Toxic Gases and Priority
The EPA regional offices who continuously monitor ambient air quality have determined that combustion by-products and automobile exhaust make up the largest source of air pollution throughout the U.S., with more severe conditions existing overseas. Despite concerns about the conditions outdoors, air quality in the workplace and home environment receive even more attention. The EPA’s list ...

A Guide for Effective Selection of Air Quality Monitors
The selection of air quality monitors plays an elemental role in preparing preventive and protective action plans on regional as well as global scales. In 2019, Hindustan Times kindled a discussion on the rising number of non-attainment cities across the country. That is to say, a non-attainment city fails to comply with the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) standards. This noncompliance is ...

A sensor specially designed for cleanrooms - Case Study
A sensor specially designed for cleanrooms Cleanrooms are certified once or twice a year to ensure minimum dust levels. However, ISO standards recommend continuous monitoring of air quality in sensitive environments to prevent risks (ISO 14644-2 standard). Thanks to a particulate matter sensor specifically designed for dust monitoring in cleanrooms, the ECOMZEN CR replaces a particle counter. ...

Development of on-line and field dual TD-GC-FID/MS for automatic and continuous ambient air monitoring
Ambient air is polluted by many Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) coming from anthropogenic and natural sources. VOCs from PAMS, T014 and T015 lists can be measured in many ranges of concentration, from ng/m3 up to mg/m3 depending on the location of the measurements. Due to the large number of molecules, the complete separation of all compounds is difficult to perform using chromatographic ...

Low Emission Zones
What is a Low Emission Zone (LEZ)? An LEZ is a defined area within a city where access to the most polluting vehicles is restricted to reduce emissions and improve air quality. These types of restrictions are often set in large cities, where pollution due to traffic has a significant impact on health and environment. Although the idea of an LEZ was first set up in Stockholm in ...

Air Quality Monitoring
Why monitor air quality? Well, to monitor is to know. Everything else is just more or less qualified guesses. International, national and local air quality targets and limits are also tied to monitoring results. What is Air Quality? How is air quality characterised? It is quite common to find air quality indexes, where the ranges are divided in sections indicating “good”, ...
