With the advent of winter, many parts of Europe have begun to use charcoal for heating due to fuel shortages. From “energy clean” to “energy security”, the return of coal and charcoal to the European energy sequence raw material options will inevitably lead to particulate pollution in the air. Harmful wood stove flue gases pollute the air we breathe in many residential areas. At the end of September 2022, Palas\u00ae AQ Guard Smart Aerosol Spectrometers have detected severe particulate pollution in the Karlsruhe district in Germany at measuring points in Ettlingen and Stutense.<\/p>\n

Air quality monitoring in residential areas<\/strong><\/p>\n

Currently there are no official measurements of inhalable particulate matter data in residential areas. As part of a research on air pollution control, air pollution levels in the residential areas of Ettlingen and Stutensee are measured and compared in real-time. While the breathing air at 2 measuring points in Ettlingen was slightly contaminated with respirable fine dust, the measuring point in a residential area in Stutensee showed clearly increased values. A burning smell was in the air \u2013 wood stove smoke polluted the breathing air.<\/p>\n

\nDetailed measurement results of PM2.5 from 3:00pm to 8:00pm local time<\/em><\/p>\n

As can be seen in the time course of the PM2.5 emission, the breathing air was only slightly polluted with respirable fine dust in the afternoon. The wood stove operation caused the load to shoot up in the evening. Several peaks in the emission are recognizable, which relate to the burning process of coal and charcoal. Such happenings are distinctive. A comparison of the hourly mean values determined in the residential areas, with those measured at Stuttgart Neckartor at the same time, shows:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u00b7\u00a0 \u00a0In the evening hours, the breathing air in the traffic-free residential area is significantly more polluted with PM2.5 over hours than at Stuttgart Neckartor
\n\u00b7\u00a0 \u00a0At Neckartor, the highest pollution was determined in the late morning
\n\u00b7\u00a0 \u00a0The pollution in the purely residential area in Stutensee reaches this pollution level at 8 pm
\n\u00b7\u00a0 \u00a0The evening hours are better spent at the Neckartor in Stuttgart than in a residential area in Stutensee – from the point of view of PM2.5 pollution of the air we breathe<\/p>\n

Equipped with a data cloud platform to view hot data in real time<\/strong><\/p>\n

AQ Guard Smart is a robust aerosol spectrometer for ambient air. It uses the measurement principle of optical scattered light measurement on single particles based on the technology of the EN 16450 certified Fidas\u00ae 200. Can be upgraded with a gas sensor package (SO2, CO, NO2, O3) and thus offers optimum options for evaluating the air quality. AQ Guard Smart can be operated over longer periods without recalibration. Deviations in the particle size determination and, therefore drifts of the PM values, are determined by a specific analysis of the particle size distribution and displayed and reported when a tolerance threshold is exceeded as part of the self-monitoring. AQ Guard Smart transmits measurement data via Palas\u00ae MyAtmosphere; when operating alone, the system can be operated by an external battery with or without solar support.<\/p>\n

The lightweight and easy-to-use measuring device AQ Guard Smart is suitable as a supplement to regulatory measurements, for monitoring and controlling safe working conditions and for temporary or permanent air quality monitoring at roadside locations, construction sites or industrial plants.<\/p>\n
