Helping South Lakes Citizens Advice to reopen safely
NAQTS helped South Lakes Citizens Advice to understand how they could manage potential airborne virus transmission risks without significantly increasing ingress from outdoor air pollution.
Working With Lancaster University To Improve Building Management Through A Mesh Network of Indoor Air Quality Sensors
Collaborating with Lancaster University, NAQTS has begun a new project to design, test, and validate an IoT mesh network of low-cost indoor air quality sensors to improve indoor air quality, reduce the energy demand of HVAC, and improve our understanding and control of airflow to reduce the risk of airborne transmission of SARS-CoV-2.
NAQTS partners with UK universities on pilot project to characterise domestic indoor air quality
Sources, behaviour and mitigation strategies influencing indoor air quality: A pilot study The average person in the UK spends more than 90% of their time indoors, and indoor air quality (IAQ) related emissions can contribute significantly to total air pollution exposure. Despite this, relatively few studies focus on IAQ compared to outdoor air quality. A […]
Researching the risk of airborne SARS-CoV-2 Transmission with The University of Chester
With schools and universities beginning to reopen, in this article we examine the evidence and industry response to managing aerosol transmission, as well as introduce a new research project with The University of Chester which shows how understanding and measuring air quality can reduce the risks.
Reducing The Risk Of Indoor Airborne Virus Transmission Through Continuous Indoor Air Quality Monitoring
We still do not know enough about the potential for aerosol transmission of SARS-CoV-2 (the cause of COVID-19).
In this article, we examine the evidence and industry response, and draw on our recent work with Johnson Matthey in UK schools to show how understanding and measuring air quality can reduce the risks.
