Air Quality Monitoring

Air Quality Monitoring

Verde provides a wide range of environmental air quality monitoring and management services for either short term representative sampling or long-term air quality monitoring and assessments, depending on project types.

More up to date air quality monitoring options involve the installation of continuous air monitoring equipment connected by telemetry to a remote desktop. We can set up options for text or email alerts to be received when certain air quality “trigger” levels are exceeded. All data will be stored in a cloud based database where real–time data access will enable prompt resolution of any potential non-compliance, as well providing proof to regulators or other stakeholders that the required standards are being complied with.

What is Air Pollution

Air pollution occurs when harmful chemicals, particles or bioaerosols are introduced into the atmosphere. It may cause diseases, allergies or death, affecting human health, animals, food crops and the natural or built environment. Human activity and natural processes can both generate air pollution. Poor air quality can impact on human health and is regarded by the WHO as the single biggest environmental health risk.In a report carried out by the European Environment Agency, air pollution from fine particulate matter alone is responsible for over 1,000 premature deaths each year in Ireland. Indoor air pollution and poor urban air quality are listed as two of the world’s worst toxic pollution problems in the 2008 Blacksmith Institute World’s Worst Polluted Places report. In Ireland, the EPA operates a network of nationwide air monitoring stations under the National Ambient Air Quality Monitoring Programme. This data is freely available to the public on the EPA website.
