Description
The Regional Association of Territorial Cooperation of Teschen Silesia considers the measurement of air quality to be very important and has already participated in projects on this topic in the past (i-AIRP''s, CLAIRO, i-AIR REGION). The Czech-Polish border region has long been a problematic region affected by both local heating plants and industrial pollution. Although the fuel mix in this area is not exceptional and includes both gas heating and heating with solid fuels (wood, coal), the situation is becoming less predictable through current natural gas and electricity prices. The proposed project involves measurement of PMx (PM10, PM2.5) by equivalent on-line method at one location, gravimetric determination of PM10 at 10 locations and collection of 100 PAH samples in the 2023/2024 heating season (10 samples at 10 locations + 20 samples for control and blank). The sampling will be carried out using the technique required by Annex 1 of the Call by an authorised group. Subsequently, it will be analysed in the accredited laboratory of VŠB-TUO (partner). The quality control, inspection of equipment and data interpretation will be carried in accordance with the requirements of Annex 1 by VŠB-TUO. The results will be accessible from the municipality''s website.
