Did you know that specialty light sources help to analyze undesirable pollutant emissions?

Generally any substance that people introduce into the atmosphere that has damaging effects on living things and the environment is considered air pollution.

Air pollution through the ozone, nitrogen dioxide, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and particulate dust puts a burden on the environment and impairs human health.

Especially now, during the lazy and hazy days of the summer months air pollution is being worse than in the winter time.

Days are longer, there is more sunlight and generally more stability in the atmosphere which leads into stagnant air. The air doesn’t move, it just “sits and cooks”.

Emissions that cause air pollution come from different sources, like power plants, cars, planes, ships etc. To limit emissions, they need to be measured.

Heraeus Noblelight develops analytical lamps that enable cost-efficient and reproducible precise analysis.

Photoionisation detection lamps (PID) for example are most commonly used in VOC gas detection, in gas chromatography (GC) and sample ionization for mass spectrometry.

Whilst high-intensity Deuterium lamps are the ideal choice for high-end HPLC instruments or UV-Vis spectrophotometer.
