University of Ouagadougou Research Study with Aeroqual AQM65

Enviro & Industrial Solutions ME supplies one fully integrated air monitoring station – Aeroqual AQM65 to University of Ouagadougou for research and pollution monitoring applications in Burkina Faso, West Africa. This project was initiated by the university to further help with their research studies.

Aeroqual AQM65 as an Integrated Air Monitoring Station

EIS ME has been working with Aeroqual, a company established in 2001, with more than a decade. Aeroqual’s AQM65 has many key features. To name a few: it continuously measures up to 10 common air pollutants; it can measure, log, report and respond in real-time; its modular design allows for ease of maintenance and repairs; and many others. 

About University of Ouagadougou

The University of Ouagadougou is a research institution in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso. Founded in 1974, with only 374 students, the University of Ouagadougou (Burkina Faso) now has grown to more than 35,000 students. This evolution has been rapid, but is marked by a permanent search for high-quality education. Such progress has classified the University of Ouagadougou as among the best in French-speaking Africa south of the Sahara.

Research and Pollution Monitoring Application

Most environmental problems are commonly associated with lack of environmental awareness. The new Aeroqual AQM65 station will assist the university in educating the public with what’s happening to the environment by increasing public awareness. This will help them in determining the sources of contaminants, thus taking a step further in reducing and eradicating existing problems with air pollution.

The research application does not only improve the well-being of the environment, but it also positively influences human health and its parts.

The project for the university is considered a breakthrough, one of many that will come, which is not only considered as a great addition to education, but it will also help reduce pollution in the area and in many industries.
