Ancelin Coulon wins this year’s Ian McCrae award

This year the award was presented to an IAQM Associate or Member in the early stages of their career at our two-day Routes to Clean Air conference held in London.

Entrants were asked to submit an essay on the following topic:

The Secretary of State has announced that the Environment Bill should include a “legally binding commitment on particulate matter so that no part of the country exceeds the levels recommended by the WHO”. Describe the key elements you think should be in the Bill and what measures it should include to enforce it.

This year’s winner Ancelin Coulon, Analyst Consultant at Ricardo Energy & Environment was awarded the Ian McCrae award for his excellent submission which thoroughly recognised the major importance of agricultural and ammonia emissions in PM formation and its importance for future compliance.
