  2015 London EDAR Demonstration and Evaluation This project is a first-time UK deployment and demonstration of a new-to-market remote sensing technology, the Hager Environmental & Atmospheric Technologies Emissions Detecting And Reporting system (HEAT EDAR), which provides high-resolution, high-sensitivity, multi-species measurement capability (typically, CO, CO2, NO, NO2, HC, and PM2.5 but readily optimised for other applications). It also employs a down-facing, single-unit camera configuration that offers a number of practical advantages over the conventional across-road, single-beam, two-unit arrangement of traditional remote sensing systems.

  2014 Absorbtion of nitrogen oxides at the roadside using mushrooms this project aims to explore the feasibility of using spent mushroom hyphae to reduce NOx pollution in the UK. The project will investigate a number of mushroom species similar to those tested in Hong Kong and test their potential to absorb NOx in a controlled laboratory environment. A small scale field-based test will be conducted to determine their efficacy in the UK climate. If this is successful, we would recommend further work to install mushroom barriers alongside a strategic road network. TRL Large T-TRIG
  2014 NOx Mitigation by absorbtion in solid mineral polymer matrix The proposal, then, is to produce and test a range of polymers, designed to pick up NOx molecules and then desorb them under certain stimuli. The quantifiable absorption properties would then be available to assess the feasibility for their use to prove the concept as a cost effective and safe solution to the issues of roadside NOx concentrations.
