Webinar Recording - Black Carbon Measurement in the European Union: The New Air Quality Directive

The European Union's April 2024 Ambient Air Quality Directive includes a special emphasis on black carbon air pollution. This hazardous air pollutant, known for its severe impacts on human health and climate, is now at the forefront of the EU's air quality management strategy. In response to this landmark directive, AethLabs and Clarity have partnered to introduce the Black Carbon Module, a solar-powered, low-maintenance device designed to meet the EU's ambitious monitoring requirements.
In this webinar, we share:
The EU's 2024 Air Quality Directive, its implications for black carbon monitoring, and how this will reshape air quality management across Europe.
The science behind black carbon air pollution - its atmospheric chemistry, primary sources in European contexts, and health impacts on EU citizens.
The mandate for new urban and rural monitoring sites in EU member states and the role of black carbon measurement equipment in these initiatives.
How the Black Carbon Module aligns with EU requirements, providing continuous ambient monitoring and accurate measurements at ng/m3 resolution.
How air quality management agencies across Europe are prioritizing black carbon measurement in light of the new directive
Applications of black carbon instrumentation in European urban environments, from peat burning to traffic pollution to industrial emissions.
How increased black carbon monitoring capacity will enhance Europe's ability to understand and mitigate particulate air pollution, as well as better combat climate change.
Real-world applications of AethLabs' black carbon measurement technology in European research projects and environmental agencies, with real-world data shared by leading researchers in the field.
