Healthy choices helper?
An emerging class of personal air quality monitoring devices fills a need for people who care about pollution exposure in their immediate vicinity. This level of granularity does make a difference, it seems. Envirotec spoke to Rainer Kiirsk, who helped develop the AirSniffler, a seemingly ground-breaking product for its power consumption and sub- 70 price tag, as well as the usefulness of the software that runs alongside it.
Simple setup for VOCs
Simple and accurate detection of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) is promised by a new measurement approach developed at Gdansk University of Technology in Poland. Potential applications include air quality analysis and patient health screening.
Multi-gas detector for simultaneous hazard detection
Whether you’re protecting workers or first responders — in industries from steel and wastewater to paper and pulp — Honeywell BW Flex delivers the flexibility you need.
Sensitive and selective leap
An entirely new class of gas sensor seems in evidence with work recently published in Advanced Materials, which combines a graphene transistor and a customised metal-organic coating.
The light fantastic
A group has discovered a new way to fabricate tiny colour-changing gas sensors using new materials and a high-resolution form of 3d printing, with potential in indoor air quality monitoring and home automation.
Line walking limits
Most consumers across the world are supplied with gas via local distribution networks which vary in size depending on the country. In the UK there is 280,000 kilometres of pipework; in France 170,000 kilometres and in the US over 3 million kilometres.
