Aviation emissions and UFP monitoring at airports

Ultrafine particle (UFP) measurements have become increasingly crucial in the aviation industry due to the unique challenges posed by aircraft emissions. While UFPs are emitted at high altitudes during flight, they are also released in substantial quantities during takeoff and landing, leading to elevated concentrations in and around airports. This poses a particular risk to residents living nearby, as airplane engines can generate dense levels of UFPs that can penetrate deep into the respiratory system. Prolonged exposure has been linked to severe health issues, including respiratory and cardiovascular diseases, making accurate UFP monitoring a top priority for both the aviation industry and public health authorities.

Pegasor offers advanced solutions specifically designed to meet this critical need. Our cutting-edge technology provides real-time, accurate data on ultrafine particle emissions, offering a level of precision that traditional particle measurement methods cannot match. Pegasor’s solutions are versatile and robust, capable of measuring emissions directly from aircraft engines in harsh conditions, as well as monitoring ambient air quality both outside and inside airport terminals. By focusing on UFPs, we help airports, airlines, and regulatory bodies better understand the full scope of aircraft emissions and their impact on public health.

Integrating ultrafine particle measurements into standard monitoring practices is not just a regulatory requirement; it is an essential step toward improving air quality and protecting the health of millions of people who live and work near airports. Pegasor is dedicated to leading this shift, providing the tools and expertise necessary to manage and mitigate the risks associated with ultrafine particle emissions in the aviation sector, both at the source and in the surrounding environment.
