2016 has seen air quality issues remain high on the public and political agendas. In parallel, there have been many developments in technologies that can help clarify which are the main contributors to air pollution, reduce emissions from specific sources, and reduce exposure to the public.
Building on the success of this long-running annual event, the 2016 conference will address these developments and the prospects that they offer for the future.
The conference will be held in collaboration with Defra's Air Quality Expert Group, and will include sessions based on the topics AQEG are currently scoping, to help gather relevant evidence. These topics include mitigation methods such as photocatalytic paint or urban vegetation as means of reducing exposure, ultrafine particles and engineered nanoparticles, and agricultural emissions. The conference will also include the presentation of results from the recent Defra funded project on innovative technologies for air quality monitoring.
