I-MUST data evaluation
According to the UK Environment Act 1995, there is a statutory duty in the UK to monitor and tackle air pollution. The Keywish gas sensor will facilitate monitoring of chemicals in the air and assist implementation of Sheffield’s air pollution strategies. It can also be used to detect gas leaks from mains gas pipeline distribution centers. This sensor suite can measure greenhouse gases (CO, CO2, methane), cooking gases (propane, butane), alcohol, smoke, hydrogen, benzene, NH3 and NOx.
