ECOTECH’s Serinus Trace gas analysers will help China combat rising air pollution in 32 sites across the country. The sensitivity of the technology provides targeted data and more precise monitoring as compared to standard air quality monitoring systems

MELBOURNE, VICTORIA, AUSTRALIA, May 9, 2017 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Australian environmental monitoring experts, ECOTECH Pty Ltd, are working with a Chinese government department to provide technology that will test and analyse air pollution in more than 30 townships across the country.

ECOTECH has supplied Serinus Trace gas analysers to China’s Ministry of Environmental Protection (MEP) to combat China’s ongoing issues with excessive levels of air pollution. According to the World Health Organisation, air pollution causes more than three million premature deaths worldwide every year , with the highest number of deaths occurring in China and India.

Establishing a reliable system for environmental protection...
While air pollution in major cities across China has been a longstanding issue, the MEP is increasingly concerned with the levels of air pollution in its smaller-scale cities outside its thriving hubs. ECOTECH’s Trace gas analysers will give officials the ability to monitor at low concentration levels, helping to combat and control rising pollution before it exceeds acceptable levels.

Michael Zeng, ECOTECH International Business Development Manager for Asia, said Serinus Trace equipment was uniquely positioned to help reduce environmental pollution in its early stages: “Because the pollution levels in these areas are lower than standard monitoring levels, ECOTECH Serinus Trace equipment is ideal; its sensitivity is able to handle these ‘trace’ or very low gas concentration levels and provide more accurate data.”

ECOTECH, in conjunction with its Chinese partner Hebei Sailhero Environmental Protection, supplied the MEP with more than 100 ECOTECH Serinus Trace gas analysers in August 2016 for township pollution monitoring. The trace stations will be installed in 32 different locations across China and the project is estimated to be complete by end of year.

Sensitive trace gas analysers will detect low-level concentration - helping monitor pollution...
Michael Zeng said Serinus Trace gas analysers are engineered to detect gas pollutants at very low levels - much lower than the standard equipment available - and will detect “small-scale” pollution in “smaller-cities” that are outside the major hubs like Shanghai or Guangzhou.

It is the sensitivity and precision of the Serinus Trace monitoring equipment that provides more targeted data the MEP can compare against large-scale sites in China to assist in the evaluation of pollution control programs.
