Climate & air quality
Limiting climate change and air pollution is one of today’s greatest societal challenges. Discover how we contribute to this with research on climate and air quality.

Climate change and air pollution
We’re developing methods to measure particulate matter, nitrogen, and greenhouse gases. And we're identifying the sources and effects of emissions.

Why the current particulate matter standard does not solve the problem
If the Netherlands achieves the particulate matter standard, the health risks will not be eliminated. The damage to health is still very high. Read why.


Measuring air quality for a healthy environment
Poor air quality causes around 80% of diseases due to environmental factors. For a healthier future, we research and measure the air quality.


What is nitrogen and can we control it?
At present, knowledge of nitrogen still contains many uncertainties. We can improve this by measuring more often and with new technologies. Learn more.


Greenhouse gas monitoring and verification
Measuring greenhouse gases is important for combating climate change. This is why we’re working on emission inventories and a verification system.


Climate change and air pollution
Reducing air pollution and climate change is a major challenge. TNO helps companies and governments to take effective measures.
