The brief

The Automatic Hydrocarbons Network is currently operated for the Environment Agency by the Network Contractors, which at the time of contract issue for this capital procurement is Ricardo Energy & Environment, although this may be subject to change.

Presently the network constitutes four TD-GC-FID ozone precursor analysers .

These instruments are used to measure 29 of the 31 VOCs listed in Annex X of the Air Quality Directive 2008/50/EC (AQD).

Theses VOCs are known as Non-Methane Volatile Organic Compounds (NMVOCs).

The objective of these measurements as described in Annex X of the AQD: - to analyse any trend in ozone precursors - to check the efficiency of emission reduction strategies - to check the consistency of emission inventories and - to help attribute emission sources to observed pollution concentrations
