Air quality measurements

Ambient air monitoring is a continuous and systematic assessment of different levels of greenhouse gases and air pollutants.
Main tasks of air quality monitoring are:

  • collect information about levels of pollutants with a network of monitoring stations
  • provide air pollution data to the general public
  • provide information about air pollution to authorities responsible for air quality standards
  • assist in evaluation of effectiveness of emission control and reduction strategies
  • help authorities to take informed decisions regarding air pollution reduction

High precision monitoring

The demand in development of extremely precise instruments for air pollution monitoring is caused by several reasons:

  • many air monitoring networks include special “background” stations placed in the regions with very low levels of anthropogenic pollutants, targeted for clean air
  • measurements of small variations in the pollutant concentrations at background stations together with specially developed models of gas transport allow insights to regional transport of air pollutants

MIRO’s multi-compound gas analyzers (MGA) are used in:

  • Reference (background) monitoring stations (NABEL, Switzerland)
  • Environment and health protection departments
  • Air monitoring stations
  • Benefits: direct measurements, compact, easy to use
