Regional Inspectorate of Environment and Water - Plovdiv

National Environment Monitoring System, Subsystem “Control and protection of the atmospheric air” – local database of the atmospheric air state – imission
National Environment Monitoring System, National Real Time Air Quality Information Network – AIS “Evmolpia”
Analytical protocols of the atmospheric air - results from measurements from Mobile imission laboratory

Measured Indicators, Measuring units, Methodologies for measurement

Manual sampling:
Measured Indicators: SO2 , NO2 , Pb, Cd, TSP, ФПЧ /10/, meteorological parameters
Measuring units: µg/m3 , mg/m3 , m/s, mm Hg, 0C.

The level gases of SO2 and NO2 in the atmospheric air are determined in accordance with BDS 17.2.4.17-83, BDS 17.2.4.22-83.
The content of dust is determined according to method in accordance with BDS 17.2.4.20-83, the fine particulate matter - BDS 17.2.4.20-83. The content of lead и cadmium is determined according to the method of atomic absorption in accordance with methodology approved by the minister of MOEW.
