Performance and Deployment of Low-Cost Particle Sensor Units to Monitor Biomass Burning Events and Their Application in an Educational Initiative

Fabienne Reisen et al.

Summary: Biomass burning smoke is a significant source of airborne fine particles in areas with limited air quality monitoring, but emerging sensor technology like the SMOG unit provides opportunities for larger scale monitoring with fine resolution. The study developed a calibration curve between SMOG units and standard instruments, showing strong associations and accuracy in measuring PM2.5 concentrations. Overall, the SMOG units offer relevant information about ambient PM2.5 concentrations in regions impacted by biomass burning, with proper adjustment factors applied.
