New gas detection zone at wwem

The organisers of environmental monitoring event,WWEM, have announced a new Gas Detection zone at the 2010 conference and exhibition, covering the workplace environment for the first time. Linde is among the manufacturers exhibiting.

Traditionally focusing on environmental monitoring, the event will now also highlight airborne industrial hazards and risk assessment across all industries, with the participation of the Council of Gas Detection and Environmental Monitoring (CoGDEM). Hazards include accidental exposure to low oxygen levels in confined spaces and to toxic, flammable or explosive gases.

WWEM organiser Marcus Pattison says: "The main objective of the new gas detection zone is to provide visitors with access to all of the available technologies for both portable and fixed gas detection and monitoring." WWEM 2010 will take place at the Telford International Centre on 10th and 11th November.
