The chemical composition of natural and anthropogenic pollutants in aerosols is of great interest for scientists, manufacturing companies and authorities.
Not only the climatic impact of aerosols but also their effect on human health (like lung- and heart problems) is an important subject. Fast and real-time quantification of the analytes in aerosols is therefore desired.
Besides the On-line air monitoring system MARGA, which samples and analyses inorganic species in gasses and aerosols in air, the PILS has been designed to sample aerosols only. It dissolves the particles in a small quantity of liquid within a few minutes. Appropriated wet-chemical analysers like ion chromatographs can analyse this solution.
·Reliable quantitative sampling of aerosols
