The Department of the Environment launches this action, framed in the Strategy for Sustainable and Integrated Urban Development Molina 2020 Avanza Contigo, co-financed by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF), through the Pluriregional Operational Program of Spain 2014-2020 The Molina de Segura City Council has begun the installation of an air quality and noise monitoring system in the urban environment, which will allow the planning of effective environmental measures in the face of the detection of pollutants that may pose a risk to the health of the citizens of the municipality or noise levels that may be a nuisance, risk or damage or that cause significant effects on the environment.
This municipal action is framed in the Molina 2020 Avanza Contigo Sustainable and Integrated Urban Development Strategy, co-financed by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF), through the Pluriregional Operational Program of Spain 2014-2020.
It is a network of sensors that consists of 10 devices or Remote Monitoring Points (PMR) equipped, each one of these, with different types of sensors: 4 atmospheric pollutant sensors: ozone, nitrogen dioxide, sulfur dioxide and carbon monoxide.
Air temperature and relative humidity sensor.
Noise sensor, Class 2.
Particle sensor.
5 of these equipments have also been equipped with Hydrogen Sulfide, Ammonia and Nitrogen Oxide sensors.
And 5 other Volatile Organic Compounds sensors have also been incorporated.
Two of these Remote Monitoring Points also incorporate a meteorological station with monitoring of external temperature, external humidity, atmospheric pressure, rain intensity, dew point, real-time and accumulated rainfall, rain intensity and wind speed.
The 10 locations of these Remote Monitoring Points (PMR) are in urban areas with high traffic density, where a high concentration of atmospheric pollutants can be generated.
The following neighborhoods of the urban area have been selected: San Roque, Centro, El Carmen, San Miguel, San Antonio, Santa Bárbara, Fátima, El Sifón and San José Los Angeles.
Also two locations in the largest urbanizations of Molina de Segura, such as La Alcayna and Altorreal.
The air quality monitoring system includes a data visualization and analysis service, with real-time information on the state of air and noise pollution in the territory.
This tool, which all citizens will be able to access through the Molina de Segura City Council website, will be available soon, once the testing phase of the facilities is over.
The Councilor for the Environment, Mariano Vicente Albaladejo, explains that "this network of sensors is proposed as complementary to the Autonomous Air Quality Network, and will allow the City Council to design specific and more effective preventive and corrective measures, and management alert situations.
It will also allow planning and executing specific sustainable urban development actions, contributing both to the improvement of the habitability of the city and the quality of life of the citizens.
On the other hand, it is necessary to highlight the possibility that the Citizens have a platform of information and basic recommendations that can, with individual actions, avoid risks to our health It also aims to be a resource for research and education;for this, all educational centers are invited to incorporate this tool into their teaching activity ".
