A Sustainable Path to Air Pollutants Detection: Developing a Low-Cost Air Quality Sensor
CHALLENGEThe variants of air pollutants (PM2.5, PM10, Ozone, carbon monoxide etc.) have been detected in specific areas of major cities worldwide. The price of the air quality monitors has been a significant hindrance to accomplishing the pillars of sustainability and widespread detection across cities and suburbs. As a result, all entries in this challenge should […]

Dr Ejohwomu is a co-investigator on an ongoing TAPAS Funded Project
Aim: Over one-year, with two intensive ‘deep-dive’ phases, we aim to implement and monitor one pilot ‘dynamic classroom’, in a pre-existing primary school classroom. The goal of the dynamic classroom is to reduce the indoor air pollution exposure of school pupils and staff during the school day, and subsequently improve the learning environment. Meet the […]
SQUARE Project Wins University of Manchester Covid Recovery Fund
Title: Occupational Exposure – A pilot study for construction projects Air pollution from construction activities contribute to more than 500,000 annual deaths. PM2.5 is given off during construction activities, and it is harmful to humans and the environment. Unlike most workplaces, personnel on construction projects’ sites are exposed to dynamic environments with varying degree of […]
Modelling and Forecasting Temporal PM2.5 Concentration Using Ensemble Machine Learning Methods
Our models show that machine learning models are efficient in predicting air particulate concentrations, and can be used for air pollution forecasting. This study also provides insights into how climatic factors influence the concentrations of pollutants found in the air. Read here: https://www.mdpi.com/2075-5309/12/1/46
The Exposure of Workers at a Busy Road Node to PM2.5: Occupational Risk Characterisation and Mitigation Measures
In this study we assessed the temporal variability of pollutants around a busy road node. It provided a novel comparative evaluation of occupational shift patterns and the use of facemasks as risk control interventions. Read here: https://www.mdpi.com/1660-4601/19/8/4636
