At ILM's Air Quality and Emissions (AQE) event, Dr. Yves Tondeur took us on a deep dive into uncertainty measurement: the technology, the challenges and the regulation. To watch Dr. Tondeur's presentation, click here.

Topics include:

Understanding fitness for purpose
What are each jurisdiction’s detection limits?
Are limit of detection and limit of quantification treated as identical?
How variable are the uncertainty requirements across the world?
