Air Monitoring
27
This success is part of your combined efforts, and also we (Ankersmid Process/Sampling) found the Conference a success. We found interest from different fields, had time to catch-up with some of our suppliers and met with high end delegates from the Dutch Emission Authority. Robert Stevens – Ankersmid (The Netherlands)
and the Integrated Pollution Prevention and Control Directive with the introduction of the Industrial Emissions Directive. But what will these and other changes in emission legislation mean for the pollution monitoring industry?
• more pollutants will require monitoring from a greater number of
sources (for example, mercury has moved up the agenda in the EU, USA and Asia ahead of the legally binding UN EP Global Treaty on Mercury to be set in 2013). Other trace elements such as selenium and arsenic are also being raised as potential issues to be dealt with in future;
• advanced systems and methods will be required to measure lower and lower concentrations of pollutants as emission limits tighten and pollution control equipment becomes more efficient;
• speciation of pollutants such as PM10/2.5 will become a priority as non-attainment areas struggle to determine how best to target reductions;
• increased accuracy will become paramount as pollutants such as N2O and CH4 are introduced to trading markets in the EU and USA. Once a monetary value comes into play, measurement accuracy becomes an economic target as
well as an environmental one. Emission factors may be called into question, with real data being used to confirm or refute;
• as legislation and action plans grow in number and stringency, the importance of monitoring and quantifying this pollution in an accurate and transparent manner will become a priority. Real-time and on-line reporting systems will be the aim for most large sources.
The CEM 2011 was an excellent place to share information, know people and knowledge, I can recommend to other colleagues to participated in the next CEM.

CEM is the only conference which facilitates open discussion between regulators, authorities, sources, measurement companies and other interested parties to discuss all these issues on a level playing field.
The organisational force behind CEM 2011 is the IEA CCC and the STA. The
CEM 2011 in Prague really exceeded my expectations. The conference program met most actual and future core themes of our business (technical, legislation, research, upcoming developments etc.). Every single presentation was useful and valuable. The exhibition was also highly interesting with a participation of top companies and manufacturers that really covered most CEM applications.
My compliments for the excellent organisation of CEM 2011 at all levels. I was very pleased not only because everything has been perfectly organised from the first to last day but also because you provided at all times a friendly and immediate support. Nikos Mantas - ENCO (Greece)
International Energy Agency - Clean Coal Centre -
www.iea-coal.org.uk - is the world's foremost provider of non-biased information on the use of clean coal worldwide. IEA CCC products include in-depth topical reports and online databases of coal information. They also provide advice, facilitate R&D networks and organise workshops. The IEA CCC is funded by member countries and industrial sponsors so the analysis stays impartial.
We generated many very interesting sales leads and I saw lots of very well known people.
Philip Zimmel – JCT (Austria)
The Source Testing Association (STA),
www.s-t-a.org, was established in 1995 and has a corporate membership of over 200 companies from process operators, regulators, equipment suppliers and test laboratories who have an interest in emission monitoring. The STA is a non-profit making organisation.
I really appreciate this event and thank you a lot for the perfect organisation of it.
Thomas Steiner – Dioxin Monitoring (Austria)
This International event has been organised in many European Countries since its inaugural meeting in 1997, including the UK, Netherlands, Denmark, Switzerland, France and Italy.
