_ COLLECTING DATA FOR PORTS
Emissions from vessels, port operations, and related land traffic present a serious environmental health issue in ports. Many ports operations generate emissions, yet many times ports are also surrounded by other significant emissions sources such as industrial facilities or busy roads. Moreover, 90% of ports in Europe are near to densely populated urban areas. Frequently the true origin of polluted air is hard to identify, particularly with varying weather conditions influencing the dispersal of pollution.
Bettair allows to get an accurate picture of the environmental impact in and around the port.
Implementing bettair’s air quality monitoring network in the port zone provides real-time awareness of pollution levels, enabling port authorities to take timely measures based on hard data to improve air quality in and around the port, and to support environmental compliance and reporting.
