Volcanic ash monitoring

Volcanic ash monitoring - in a hurry



The Chilean volcanic ash cloud that has disrupted so much air travel on the eastern seaboard of Australia has resulted in urgent airborne safety studies.

Whilst many of you would have seen the news and the many disgruntled airline passengers, you may be interested to know over the past few days Ecotech has played an active role in helping the airlines get back in the air.

Ecotech has supplied particulate profiling equipment from Met One that was mounted on an aircraft used to conduct the airborne aerosols research for Qantas by Flinders University. The equipment request from Qantas was an urgent one with only two hours notice, and they have expressed their thanks for Ecotech's outstanding service.

The instrument used for the profiling was the Met One Model 212.
