LAHORE:Punjab University (PU) Institute of Energy and Environmental Engineering’s Assistant Professor Dr Zaeem bin Babar has been awarded the prestigious EPIC Air Quality Grant, of 50,000 USD, which will be used to develop Faisalabad’s first Continuous Air Quality Monitoring Network.
The funding agency is Energy Policy Institute at Chicago (EPIC) USA. Dr Babar said the award would enhance Pakistan’s air quality monitoring capabilities by establishing Faisalabad’s first-ever quality monitoring network. According to him, this project will deploy 10 low-cost air quality monitors across key areas, including industrial, commercial, and residential sectors in Faisalabad, which is Pakistan’s third most-populous city and a major industrial hub. He said that the obtained data would be used to identify pollution hotspots and advocate for stricter air quality standards, ultimately contributing towards improving air quality and public health.
