Effectiveness in Evaluating Roadside Air Quality for Milan Government

Sector：Traffic and Marine Emission

Location：Milan, Italy

The traffic emissions are generally monitored by the traditional fixed reference stations. However, those stations are not only expensive to operate, but also unable to monitor emission sources at a close range. This limited their effectiveness in studying local pollution problems. To better understand the traffic emissions in Milan, Italy, the city's environmental agency AMAT (Agenzia Mobilità Ambiente e Territorio) deployed three Sapiens MAS-AF300 in the city to evaluate the advanced air quality sensors compact station’s capability to detect exposure to vehicular traffic-related emission

Shenzhen Yantian Port Long-term Emission Monitoring

Sector：Traffic and Marine Emission

Location：Shenzhen, China

The Pearl River Delta (PRD) stands as one of the three biggest port clusters in China, playing a vital role in the nation’s trade and transportation efficiency. However, this thriving development comes at a cost, as the shipping activities generate substantial emissions of greenhouse gases and pollutants, including CO2 and SO2. These emissions not only pose health risks to residents of coastal cities but also exacerbate air quality issues in the surrounding areas.
