Environmental Central Facility (ENVF), as one of the HKUST’s central research facilities, is a key support platform equipped with environmental monitoring and analytical tools for atmospheric research.
ENVF engages primarily in applied, multidisciplinary environmental research and development activities that promote the socio-economic and technological development of Hong Kong and its region. The completed research projects include the following areas:
• Atmospheric modeling and air pollution
• Environmental biotechnology
• Cleaner production
• Coastal, marine science, engineering and management
• Remote sensing and environmental GIS
Advanced environmental monitoring and analytical equipment are available to support a wide range of analytical methodologies and research, such as:
• Energy Dispersive X-Ray Fluorescence
• Inductively Coupled Plasma – Optical Emission Spectrometer
• Gas Chromatograph (GC) - Bench top Mass Selective Detector (MSD) in Electron Ionization (EI) mode
• Gas Chromatograph (GC) -Bench top Mass Selective Detector (MSD) with CI option
• Total Organic Carbon Analyzer (TOC)
