Abstract

The problem of air pollution with fine particulate matter and aerosols is more than topical and extremely serious. There is a need to develop and build reliable geographically distributed air quality monitoring networks to enable real-time data collection. The analysis of such data would help identify the origin of the particles and timely operational measures by the authorities. The research aims at the development of a mobile modular station with autonomous power supply and the experimental feasibility study and as a first step in the construction of a complete network.
