Real-time PM, UFP and Gas Monitoring for Air Quality and Climate Compliance

DURAG GROUP provides monitoring solutions for air quality monitoring networks worldwide, delivering real-time PM, UFP and gas monitors to support compliance, health protection, and climate goals.

Driving clean air and climate action globally

Air pollution and greenhouse gases (GHGs) are among the most pressing challenges of our time. The World Bank estimates $6 trillion annually in health damage caused by air pollution alone. This staggering cost has triggered global initiatives, such as: WHO’s Global Air Quality Guidelines, the Directive 2024/2881 on ambient air quality and cleaner air for Europe, China and India’s National Clean Air Programme, Brazil’s updated CONAMA resolutions, and many other climate commitments under the Paris Agreement.

Air Monitoring Networks are the backbone of these efforts. They provide the data that governments, agencies, and industries need to protect public health, enforce compliance, and track progress toward climate neutrality.
 

Why real-time monitoring changes everything

Reducing pollution and meeting climate goals require more than periodic checks – they demand fast, accurate, and continuous data. Traditional gravimetric methods often take days to deliver results, delaying action when every hour counts. DURAG solutions transform this process by providing real-time measurements for particulate matter and gases, enabling immediate response to pollution spikes and supporting proactive strategies for cleaner air.

Integrated expertise for air and climate

DURAG GROUP brings together two world-leading technologies under one roof.

  • GRIMM AEROSOL TECHNIK, part of DURAG GROUP, delivers precision in particulate monitoring – from PM10 and PM2.5 to ultrafine particles (UFP) and size distribution – meeting the strictest standards for environmental and occupational safety.
  • AP2E ProCeas Air adds advanced gas analysis using OFCEAS laser technology, offering ultra-sensitive detection of pollutants and greenhouse gases such as HF, HCl, NH3, CO3, CH4, formaldehyde and more. This combination ensures networks can monitor both air quality and climate-relevant emissions with unmatched accuracy.

Supersites – comprehensive environmental intelligence

Modern air monitoring networks are evolving toward Supersites – central hubs equipped to measure multiple pollutants and climate indicators simultaneously. These stations combine PM monitoring, UFP analysis, and GHG detection in one location, delivering a holistic view of air quality and emissions.

DURAG’s integrated solutions make Supersites possible:

  • GRIMM EDM 280 for real-time PM10 and PM2.5
  • GRIMM CPC 5421 nanoparticle counter and GRIMM SMPS+C 5420 nanoparticle sizer for UFP
  • ProCeas Air for NH3, CO2, CH4, N2O and other gases

This synergy enables authorities to correlate data, identify sources, and design effective pollution prevention strategies.

Ultrafine particles – the hidden threat

Particles smaller than 100 nanometers penetrate deep into the lungs and bloodstream, posing severe health risks. While regulations focus on PM10 and PM2.5, UFPs are increasingly recognized as critical indicators of air quality. DURAG offers CEN-compliant nanoparticle counters and sizers for continuous UFP monitoring, helping networks stay ahead of emerging standards and research needs.

EDM 280 – real-time PM monitoring

The EDM 280 sets the benchmark for particulate measurement. It provides approved PM10 and PM2.5 values in as little as one minute, certified to EN16450 and QAL1 – EN15267. Its optical laser technology ensures maximum precision even at WHO guideline levels, while its energy-efficient design (only 25 W) and minimal maintenance make it ideal for continuous operation in global monitoring networks.

ProCeas Air – advanced gas pollutant analysis

For gas monitoring, ProCeas Air offers continuous, real-time measurement at ultra-low detection limits, making it perfect for urban networks, industrial zones, and climate observatories. By supporting compliance with international climate agreements and national inventories, ProCeas Air helps networks meet both air quality and climate objectives.
