D G Emission Monitoring
Emissions from diesel generators raise a number of problems for both humans and the environment. Constant exposure to such emissions could lead to coughing, nose and throat irritation, headaches, respiratory illnesses and carbon dioxide contributes to greenhouse effect.
Pollutants Released from Diesel Generators
- Nitrogen oxides
- Carbon monoxide
- Hydrocarbons
- Particulate matter
- Arsenic
- Benzene
Effects of exhausts from diesel generators:
- Long term exposure to Nitrogen Oxide could lead to asthma, chronic lung diseases and respiratory infections
- Inhaling Carbon Monoxide is akin to smoking cigarettes and causes dizziness, fatigue, headaches and confusion
- Constant emission of Carbon Dioxide weakens the Earth's natural greenhouse effect
- Diesel fumes exposure leads to coughing, sore throat and eyes, headaches, nausea, respiratory issues and lung inflammation
- Pollutants from diesel fumes could cause cancer
- Fine particulate matter could have adverse effects on an individual's lung and heart health
Why Should D G Emission Be Monitored?
Testing for diesel generator emission is crucial to ensure the pollutants are within the permissible limit of compliance. This helps the industries to make any change or modifications to the generators in order to lessen the harmful effect caused by such emissions.
