Environmental measurements
Environmental measurements rely on the use of various techniques and tools such as monitoring stations, laboratory tests, field environmental surveys, and others, with the aim of understanding the environmental situation and taking the necessary measures to preserve the environment and improve its quality.
Environmental impact assessment and environmental audit studies for the second and third categories rely on a variety of environmental measurements and data analysis, with the aim of clarifying whether there is environmental pollution or not, and to monitor the environmental status of the activity being studied. These measurements and analyses include several aspects, including:
- Air quality measurements
- Gaseous pollutant measurement
Environmental measurements are made to monitor gaseous pollutants using the latest devices approved by the National Center for Monitoring Environmental Compliance, through the use of air quality monitoring stations (Air Ambient Quality Monitoring Stations), as these stations are considered one of the advanced and specialized tools that are used to monitor gas emissions and monitor ambient air quality continuously and around the clock.
Air quality monitoring stations are of many types and include many key environmental standards and indicators, including:
Carbon Oxide(CO)
Levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, a gas commonly released by industrial processes and fuel burning, are monitored
Nitrogen dioxide(NO2)
The level of nitrogen dioxide, a gas formed mainly by combustion processes and considered an atmospheric pollutant, is measured.
Sulfur dioxide(SO2)
The level of sulfur dioxide, which is usually released from fossil fuel combustion processes, is monitored
Ozone(O3)
The level of atmospheric ozone is measured, an important gas for air quality and health impacts.
Suspended particles (PM10,PM2.5)
The level of suspended particles in the air with a diameter of less than 10 microns is monitored, which is one of the most important air environmental pollutants.
These stations are vital tools to monitor air pollution and determine the impact of human activities on air quality, contributing to taking the necessary measures to reduce pollution and protect the environment and the health of the population.
Soil analysis probes
- Collect and analyze soil samples to detect potential environmental pollution from sources such as industrial waste or oil spills, and assess the environmental impacts of that pollution.
- Soil analysis of gas stations is an essential part of environmental efforts to ensure that the soil is not contaminated and the surrounding environment is preserved. These steps are important to reduce negative environmental impacts and improve air, water and soil quality in the area surrounding the plant.
- Samples are analyzed to determine levels of chemical contaminants known to such sites, such as volatile organic compounds (VOCs), petroleum hydrocarbons (PHCs), and heavy metals (such as lead and cadmium).
- The concentration of pollutants is compared to local and international environmental standards to estimate the degree of pollution and the extent of potential environmental impacts.
