Brussels measurement campaign methodology
The document describes the use of Palmes-type NO2 diffusion tubes to monitor air quality across several Brussels locations from 19 February to 20 March 2017. It details the placement of tubes according to Directive 2008/50/EC, the laboratory analysis by Gradko International Limited, and a validation process at the Avenue de la Couronne station which revealed a 24% under-estimation of concentrations by the diffusion tubes. ClientEarth notes it adopted a conservative approach by using the lowest recorded concentrations for locations with multiple samples and publishing raw data without applying the bias correction factor.
