Air Quality Monitoring
Air quality monitoring may be required as part of an air quality assessment, permit application, odour assessment or to monitor dust levels as part of an AQDMP.
Air quality monitoring can be divided into two broad categories: automatic monitoring and passive monitoring. Both methods are accepted and used by local authority and regulators.
Automatic monitoring
Higher costs
Requires a power source and phone signal
Provides real time text/email alerts
Picks up short-term fluctuations in pollutants
Passive monitoring
Cheaper costs
No power source or phone signal required
No real time alerts
Does not pick up short-term fluctuations in pollutants
Aeolus Air Quality Consulting have experience in undertaking both automatic and passive monitoring of various pollutants: see this example. Staff have experience in monitoring at schools, universities, construction sites, residential properties and mineral extraction sites.
AAQC own a small fleet of automatic monitors. These are available to hire along with support services: installation, alert monitoring, compliance reporting and decommissioning. We have industry contacts who can also provide passive monitors and low-cost automatic monitors.
