Progress to date

»  GeSng familiar with the literature on occurrence, sampling and detecAon methods of FRs

»  Training on using emission test chambers – ongoing

»  GeSng familiar with existed emission tesAng protocols

»  Training on sampling and sample preparaAon from gas phase – ongoing

»  Building a database containing FR, and their physical/chemical properAes, relevant for emission tesAng, occurrence, sampling and detecAon methods

»  InstallaAon and validaAon of a new test chamber of 0.5 m3 according to ISO 16000-‐9

Plans for next 6 months

»  Stage 1 of research plan: selecAng relevant FR and exploring the

applicability of selected methods for sampling and detecAng;

»  GeSng started with Stage 2 of research plan: SelecAng of relevant

parameters for emission tesAng, and design different tesAng scenarios.

»  Literature review for developing a procedure for relevant products

selecAon for emission tesAng.
