Why do you think is Air sampling done? Air sampling is a process used to determine what airborne contaminants are present in an environment. It uses special instruments to detect contaminants such as gases, vapours, dust, and fibers in the air. Air sampling is vital in an industry that sees high levels of airborne contaminants. Air sampling is carried out to ensure that workplace or environmental air is meeting regulatory standards and to help Occupational Hygiene and Health & Safety professionals assess employee exposure to airborne hazards. Air sampling techniques are used to monitor air composition as a function of time but there is a range of different approaches that can be used to perform air sampling. Particulate air sampling techniques include filtration, electrostatic precipitation, thermal precipitation, gravitational settling, centrifugal separation, and impingement. When the concentration of the radioactive component is high, the sampling procedure is simple. Different techniques of air sampling include Grab Sampling, Passive or Active Sampling, and the use of Edinburgh Sensors.
