On 23rd October 2024, Kore was delighted to welcome a delegation from the Chinese National Environmental Monitoring Centre (CNEMC) for knowledge exchange regarding strategic use of PTR- and EI-TOF-MS in the environmental monitoring sector. CNEMC engineers work closely with our collaborators in China, Beijing SDL Technology Co., on environmental analytical instruments. The lead engineers of CNEMC Instrument Quality Supervision and Inspection Center travelled from Beijing to Ely, to discuss detection of compounds of concern in surface/meteoric water, waste water, atmospheric air, and flue gas/incinerator emissions with our experts.
CNEMC engineers provide the crucial role of quality assurance and certification of environmental monitoring products across every province of China. They accredit fenceline, stationary and portable monitoring instruments for volatile organic compounds, particulates, NOx, SOx, pH, heavy metals, and many other pollutants. They also test and certify data acquisition and transmission equipment across vast networks of instrumentation, which together realise their goal of examination and monitoring at a national level. Established in 1980, CNEMC is a public institution directly affiliated to the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, producing up-to-date reports, technical guidance and training.
Kore engineers were glad to have the opportunity to showcase their innovative environmental monitoring instruments, and to discuss the latest challenges and solutions being developed at CNEMC. We are most grateful to the delegation for travelling to the UK to meet with us in person, and we look forward to further global exchanges of ideas and shared goals for a greener future.
