Evaluation of budget ozone sensor for atmospheric measurements

Recently, air pollution and related problems attract more and more attention. The ambient air has an essential role among other components of biosphere and its importance is invaluable for all living organisms. Ambient air pollution has become a critical problem with industrial development over the world. Amount of harmful exhausts in the atmosphere increases as a result of technological progress and the concentrations of certain components significantly exceed their permissible thresholds. Scientifically confirmed, that the atmosphere pollutants, such as carbon, nitrogen oxides (NOX), dust particles, volatile organic compounds at high concentrations has negative impact on human health and material values, causes various diseases, including cancer. Increasing air pollution adversely affects the environment, destroys ecosystems, air pollutants influence the climate, cause negative processes in the protective ozone layer increase ozone contamination in low troposphere and contribute to the greenhouse effect. The main purpose of my work is to test the suitability of a cheap carbon monoxide detector for atmospheric analysis. To determine how accurate the detector is, its measurements are compared with data from online sources. In the experimental method used ECO Physics NOx Analyzer CLD 780 TR. The analysis method used to measure nitrogen oxides (NO, NO2, summary name NOx) with O3 Chemiluminescence The work was performed on the basis of SMART | AtmoSim_LAB.
