Scientific exploration at outdoor chambers for the study of atmospheric behavior of biogenic and anthropogenic VOCs, formation of products including ozone and aerosols under near-real conditions (use of natural light & high volume: 200m3) and their impact on the air quality. The chambers are equipped with a wide variety of instruments, also state-of-the-art systems, for that purpose. Intercomparison of instrumentation with the possibility of accommodating a large number of external instruments can be carried out. The facilities are suitable for testing, developing or improving new instruments to measure compounds in the air, testing innovative depolluting solutions relevant to air quality management, etc. In this sense, the facilities can be adapted to specific user’s demands so that researchers and industry can test their research-grade and close-to-market initiatives at nearly-real controlled conditions, which will help them to characterize and enhance their prototypes and technologies, models or research items.
Training stays, bottom-up oriented, within a research topic framework guided by expert staff are welcome.
