SUMMARY:Early Careers Group Meetup
DESCRIPTION:The IAQM Early Careers Group meetups provide a forum to learn\, practice presentation skills and network with other early-career professionals\, in a friendly\, supportive and accessible environment.This series of mid-afternoon events offer a platform for early-career professionals to gain valuable professional development and share experiences with peers in a relaxed and supportive audience\, providing an excellent CPD opportunity which you can later use as evidence of development when upgrading from Associate to Member.The next meetup will be held at Atkins Offices in London\, Victoria on Wednesday 17th July and will include a workshop around air quality monitoring.Monitoring of actual\, observed air pollution levels\, complements the modelling forecasts that IAQM members use routinely in their assessments of air quality impacts of anthropogenic activity. Measurements of air quality data can generate large amounts of data; turning this into a robust and reliable evidence base required the proper design of the monitoring strategy and the appropriate use of statistical tools to draw out the key features.Attendees will have a chance to find out how air monitoring developed over the years and what are the opportunities and challenges of using emerging technology to monitor air quality. Join the meeting and don’t miss the opportunity to listen to and network with other professionals.Schedule 14:30 – Registration\, refreshments and networking14:50 – Welcome and introduction15:00 – Jon Pullen\, RPS – Ambient air pollution monitoring – A brief potted history from early UK measurement surveys to modern investigative strategies15:15 – Jim Mills\, Air Monitors 15:30 – Monitoring workshop16:40 – Discussion16:55 – Plenary – How would you like the network to evolve?17:15 – (optional) Drink at a local pubAccessibilityIAQM aims to provide events\, conferences and workshops which are accessible to all.

SUMMARY:Discussion meeting: How can we tackle the urgent problem of ammonia emissions?
DESCRIPTION:Ammonia emissions contribute to particle pollution and urban smog\, damaging sensitive natural habitats through excessive nitrogen deposition and acidification. Emissions in the UK have only fallen by 10% since 1970\, however the Netherlands have reduced their emissions by over 60% since 1990. Currently\, there are no ambient air quality standards or guidelines for ammonia. Agriculture\, through the use and storage of manure\, slurry\, and inorganic fertilisers\, accounts for 88% of UK emissions; the waste sector\, vehicles\, and industry account for the remainder.The Clean Air Strategy (2019) proposes actions including a code of good agricultural practice\, requirements for farmers to further invest in emissions reduction\, proposals to protect habitats\, updating the ammonia emissions inventory\, extending permitting to the dairy and intensive beef sectors\, and regulations to minimise pollution from fertiliser use.This discussion meeting will introduce these concepts\, focusing on how ammonia emissions are currently being tackled and what can be done in the future. Speakers will discuss these issues from both the regulators’ and farmers’ perspectives.If you are involved in the planning process for activities such as pig and poultry farms\, or want to know more about the issues surrounding ammonia emissions in the UK\, then this event is for you.Schedule13:30 – Registration\, refreshments and networking14:00 – Welcome14:10 – Dr Jeremy Wiltshire (Knowledge Leader\, Agriculture and Environment\, Ricardo) – Agricultural ammonia emission mitigation: principles and practices14:30 – Grace Whitlow (Environmental Advisor\, NFU) – How will the farming sector reduce ammonia emissions?14:50 – Mella Waitt (Environment & Business Senior Advisor\, the Environment Agency) – Ammonia – Facing the Challenges in Regulated Agriculture15:10 – Open floor discussion16:15 – Event closeTicketsThis event is free for all IAQM members to attend\, non-members are welcome to attend for a small fee of £25.

GRAMM is now the exclusive EU partner for SmogStop Air Pollution Control Barrier. \nSmogStop Barrier reduces air & noise pollution levels in surrounding neighbourhoods and takes a two-pronged approach to reducing air pollution hotspots from major roads\, highways and railways. \nThe patented aerodynamic design reduces pollution levels by enhancing dispersion so that neighbouring residents can breathe easier. At the same time\, a proprietary coating on the barrier actually breaks down the NOx and VOCs that produce smog\, transforming them into harmless by-products. \nSmogStop Barrier’s angled baffle and double-walled design serve two main purposes. First\, they direct traffic emissions between the two walls\, where a photocatalytic coating treats the pollutants. Second\, they generate vortexes and enhance vertical mixing of emissions with clean air\, further decreasing pollution levels in surrounding neighbourhoods. \nThe proprietary coating we’ve developed transforms smog-producing NOx and VOCs into harmless gases and water\, powered purely by sunlight. \nSmogStop Barrier incorporates CLEARSoundBlok: a sound-reducing\, break-resistant and highly transparent grade of acrylic. The result? A dramatic reduction in noise and air pollution — without sacrificing sunlight. Over the course of a year\, a single km of SmogStop Barrier can remove 16 tonnes of NOx — the equivalent of taking 200\,000 cars off that stretch of road. \nRecent field tests in Ontario proving results of over 58% reduction of emissions compared to a standard barrier. \nBOTTOM-LINE BENEFITS: Reducing air pollution saves lives – and money. \n\n		\n	\n\n\n	\n		\n			Exhibiting this year\n\n		\n	\n\n	\n		\n			\n		\n	\nCambustionCambustion produces fast response emissions analyzers and with their millisecond response time\, the accurate measurement of a vehicle’s emissions can be identified with an accuracy of 14cm at 30mph via GPS. The data thus produced from a number of candidate vehicles show up the pollution “hot spots” within an urban environment with very good spatial resolution. For example\, the spike of NOx produced from a vehicle travelling over a speed bump can be associated with a particulate house number. The data (from London and Cambridge) show road layouts which particularly exacerbate local pollution and vehicles which react badly to particular urban driving styles.

SUMMARY:Discussion meeting: Mitigating Operational Impacts
DESCRIPTION:Delivering real improvements in local air quality. In line with the IAQM guidance as air quality professionals\, we quantify impacts (negligible\, slight\, moderate or substantial at individual receptors) and based on our professional judgement\, conclude whether effects on local air quality are likely to be significant.  The assessment of impacts considers the effectiveness of mitigation measures that are incorporated into the development proposals\, but in terms of reducing residual impacts\, we often don’t go far enough.  We are frequently steered by local authorities towards calculating damage costs\, however\, rarely are these calculations translated into practical measures to prevent or overcome the possible effects. Increasingly\, we rely on unsubstantiated statements about the likely air quality benefits of green travel measures and electric vehicle charging points. These issues were made clear in Gladman Developments Limited v SSCLG (November 2017). What have we really learned\, and how can we demonstrate the measures we propose in our assessments will deliver sufficient improvements in local air quality to avoid significant effects on human health and ecosystems?

Having led the development of the London Air Quality Network\, now the largest urban network in Europe\, Gary has pursued network data analysis techniques to characterise trends and changes in urban air pollution. Much of this research is focused on the source apportionment of PM10 concentrations to quantify the impacts of PM not well-represented in emissions inventories\, including construction activity\, waste management and more recently wood burning. Through close working with toxicologists\, clinicians and epidemiologists\, Dr Fuller promotes the best use of air pollution measurements in health studies\, working towards a better characterisation of pollutant exposure. Public engagement is an important part of the work at King’s. As well as leading the London Air Quality Network websites and apps\, Dr Fuller also writes the fortnightly Pollution Watch in the Guardian newspaper and hopes to be publishing a book on air pollution late 2018. He is also a member of Defra’s Air Quality Expert Group. Nick Molden\, Emissions AnalyticsNick Molden\, Emissions Analytics The First Real Driving Emissions Results\, Consequences for Euro 6 Diesels and How to Make a Clear Air Zone Work Nick founded Emissions Analytics in 2011 in order to understand real-world fuel economy and emissions from vehicles. The concept was to find a way to characterise vehicles in a relatively short test\, and be able to conduct a large number of comparable tests. The solution was to use Portable Emissions Measurement Systems to source real on-road raw data efficiently across many vehicles. This database is now a platform for analysing and modelling this data\, from which the EQUA Index was created\, which is used and published in the UK\, across Europe and the USA. In addition\, Emissions Analytics conducts extensive custom testing programmes of heavy and light duty commercial and off-road vehicles. Nick is a specialist in data analytics\, particularly in the automotive market\, through his prior work at Oxford Indices Ltd\, a data specialist\, United Business plc and Haymarket Media Group. He is a graduate of the University of Oxford\, with an MA in Philosophy\, Politics and Economics. Dr Mark Peckham\, CambustionDr Mark Peckham\, Cambustion Transient Engine Emissions and their Impact on (very) Local Air Quality Mark attended Edinburgh and Cambridge universities for Bachelors and PhD degrees in engineering. Following a brief spell at Ricardo\, he joined Cambustion where he has been a Director of the Products Division since 1998. He aids technical support and develops new techniques for using their fast response emissions analyser products which currently involves on-board fast RDE measurements for the purpose of mapping urban air pollution hotspots from vehicle emissions. He also publishes technical papers involving the application of this equipment to combustion and emissions control systems. Dr Jenny Stocker\, CERCDr Jenny Stocker\, CERC Best Practice Air Quality Modelling Using ADMS Jenny received her PhD from the University of Manchester in Applied Mathematics and has worked at Cambridge Environmental Research Consultants (CERC) since 2000\, where she is now a Principal Consultant.

Jack Pease\, Environmental Management PublishingJack Pease\, Air Quality Bulletin Firewood Standards: A Contradiction in Terms? Jack edits Air Quality Bulletin\, a monthly newsletter covering news in a challenging and informative way. Trained graduated as a civil engineer working for British Rail for a few years laying track and building bridges and can admit to being responsible for the truly hideous Selhurst Train Depot in South London. An abrupt career switch to journalism saw him covering sectors such as transport\, planning\, Oil and Gas\, engineering\, defence\, trucking and most latterly air quality and noise. In an era of free news – much of which is scraped from google searches – Jack passionately believes there remains a role for good old-fashioned print journalism where independent journalists can ask awkward questions where others may fear to tread. After years of austerity\, deregulation and foot-dragging\, money is now being thrown at air quality and vehicles really do look like they have cleaned up their act. All this panic-spending on solving pollution – what could possibly go wrong?  Rebecca Rose\, Ricardo Rebecca Rose\, Ricardo Real World Measurements of Ammonia Emissions from Vehicles Rebecca works as a consultant in the Ricardo Energy and Environment air quality team where she has gained a broad knowledge of emission inventories\, air quality monitoring and modelling\, and air quality policy.

Website  GRAMM Barrier SystemsGRAMM is the UK leading specialist in the design\, supply & installation of environmental acoustic barriers with over 20 years of experience. We have constructed 1\,000’s of Km’s of acoustic barriers of all types of materials throughout UK & Europe. GRAMM is the exclusive UK partner for SmogStop. GRAMM SmogStop Barrier reduces air & noise pollution levels in surrounding neighbourhoods\, and takes a two-pronged approach to reducing air pollution from major roads\, highways and railways. The patented aerodynamic design reduces pollution levels by enhancing dispersion so that neighbouring residents can breathe easier. At the same time\, a proprietary coating on the barrier actually breaks down the NOx and VOCs that produce smog\, transforming them into harmless by-products. GRAMM SmogStop Barrier’s angled baffle and double-walled design serve two main purposes. First\, they direct traffic emissions between the two walls\, where a photo catalytic coating treats the pollutants. Second\, they generate vortexes and enhance vertical mixing of emissions with clean air\, further decreasing pollution levels in surrounding neighbourhoods. The proprietary coating we’ve developed transforms smog-producing NOX and VOCs into harmless gases and water\, powered purely by sunlight. RAMM SmogStop Barrier incorporates ClearSoundBlok: a sound-reducing\, break-resistant and highly transparent grade of plastic. The result? A dramatic reduction in noise and air pollution — without sacrificing sunlight. Over a year\, a single kilometre of GRAMM SmogStop Barrier can remove 16 tonnes of NOX— the equivalent of taking 200\,000 cars off that stretch of road.
