Environmental Monitoring System

INTRODUCTION

Why Implement an Environmental Monitoring System?

Deploying an environmental monitoring system brings significant advantages for companies seeking data-driven environmental insights and regulatory compliance. These intelligent systems provide real-time monitoring across multiple environmental parameters, enabling organizations to anticipate and mitigate environmental risks before they escalate.

Early detection and prevention: By identifying environmental anomalies at an early stage, companies can take preventive action and reduce the risk of harmful exposure to humans or ecosystems.
Cost efficiency: Proactive monitoring helps lower long-term operational costs by minimizing environmental remediation expenses and damage control.
Compliance with ISO standards: Environmental monitoring supports alignment with environmental regulations, including ISO-certified environmental control frameworks.
Corporate reputation and ESG trust: Demonstrating environmental responsibility through transparent data logging enhances public trust and brand value, aligning with sustainability commitments.
Operational improvements: Real-time environmental data enables companies to detect inefficiencies and implement improvements in air quality monitoring systems, emissions control, and water quality tracking.

THE Applus+ SOLUTION

Comprehensive Environmental Monitoring Solutions by Applus+

At Applus+, we provide comprehensive environmental monitoring solutions—from system supply and installation to commissioning and maintenance—designed to capture critical environmental parameters in real-time. Our intelligent systems combine smart sensing technologies, cloud connectivity, and environmental data logging systems to support data-driven decision-making and compliance across industries.

Continuous Emissions Monitoring: Our systems ensure real-time measurement of pollutant concentrations from industrial activities, including particles, nitrogen dioxide, sulfur dioxide, carbon monoxide, hydrofluoric acid, hydrochloric acid, ammonia, and total organic compounds. They also track non-polluting elements such as steam and oxygen.
Air quality control: Our air quality monitoring systems track ambient concentrations of nitrogen dioxide, ozone, sulphur dioxide, ammonia, volatile organic compounds, mercury, and other key substances to assess the environmental impact in industrial and urban environments.
Acoustic pollution: These systems evaluate noise levels and vibrations caused by industrial operations or infrastructure projects, enabling the mitigation of ambient noise and pollution.
Water quality: These systems also monitor water pH, turbidity, conductivity, temperature, dissolved oxygen, and the presence of specific contaminants.
Weather conditions: Integrated weather monitoring encompasses wind speed, wind direction, temperature, humidity, and rainfall, enabling organizations to correlate environmental data with climate conditions.

With over 20 years of experience in industrial environmental monitoring, Applus+ serves a range of sectors, including oil and gas, power, agriculture, mining, and aerospace, as well as public agencies and environmental authorities. We integrate multi-parameter environmental sensors into tailored architectures that are adapted to each client's specific location, project scope, and budget.

We developed the AmbiensQ Suite, a flexible, cloud-based platform that enables real-time collection, visualization, and analysis of environmental data across any device. This tool supports automated environmental reporting, task scheduling, and data-based decision-making in compliance with regulatory requirements.

Our systems utilize AI-powered data analytics to identify trends, automate alerts, and optimize environmental operations.

Applus+ holds internationally recognized accreditations, including:
ISO 17025:2017, ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015, ISO 45001:2018, and NORSOK-S-006.
