Filtrating Respiratory Protection Devices - tools against hazardous particles [Apr 2010]
Respiratory protective devices provide protection against different types of air contamination e.g. dusts, fumes, gases and vapours that are hazardous for human health. Respirators are generally classified two basic categories: filtering devices – used as the simplest protection equipment against chemical agents, and breathing apparatus – generally used by specially trained end-users in complex environments.
Air Pollution - Monitoring Particulates [Dec 2009]
An effective monitoring strategy allows the impact from particulate to be assessed and controlled.
Clean air is an essential requirement for the health and wellbeing of both the human race and the environment we live in, but achieving it is a constant battle with air pollution. According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), more than two million premature deaths each year can be attributed to the effects of urban outdoor and indoor air pollution1, a shocking statistic indeed.
Breathe Easy - The How Why and When of RPE Selection [Nov 2009]
Respiratory Protective Equipment (RPE) has been placed firmly at the bottom of the hierarchy of control and is often referred to as a control measure of last resort. The Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH) Regulations have enshrined the hierarchy in legislation for over 20 years. This hierarchy indicates the relative desirability and efficacy of various forms of control.
Ammonia Sensors and Their Applications [Sep 2009]
The key to success is understanding the monitoring environment, and the specific benefits and limitations of the sensors selected
Monitoring Heavy Metals [Jun 2009]
Recent changes to the monitoring of heavy metals in ambient air
The UK Heavy Metals Monitoring Network measures the concentration of metals in ambient air in order to assess the UK’s compliance with European air quality legislation and the exposure of the general population to potentially harmful compounds. This article describes the operation of the Network, and how its constituent monitoring sites around the UK have recently been reorganised in order to ensure compliance with European legislation.

Continuous Particulate Emissions Monitoring [Jun 2007]
Particulate measurement in chimney stacks on industrial processes
The subject of Continuous Particulate emission monitoring to satisfy regulatory requirements is of relatively new interest as a result of recent changes in legislation. Historically regulators were concerned with the visual impact of the discharge from a stack and therefore emission limits were expressed in terms of colour or opacity. However with the advent of emission limits for a process being defined in terms of mass concentration (expressed in mg/ m3) the issue of continuous particulate monitoring has become a new and growing regulatory requirement.

The Unseen Threat of VOCs [Mar 2005]
How photoionisation detection is used for worker protection, fenceline monitoring and environmental remediation.
Organic compounds are chemicals that contain carbon and are found in all living things. Volatile organic compounds, often referred to as VOCs, are organic compounds that easily become vapours or gases.
