Marina-Breath™ Early Warning System aim to enhance environmental sustainability by monitoring climate-related parameters in real-time. Developed by EMBIO Diagnostics Ltd, this innovative system employs Internet of Things (IoT) technology to tackle air quality and greenhouse gas emissions in the maritime sector. Equipped with advanced sensors, Marina-Breath™ collects data on temperature, humidity, wind intensity, fog, and air quality, focusing on hazardous emissions like nitrogen oxides (NOx), carbon dioxide (CO2), and particulate matter from vessels.
Key objectives of Marina-Breath™ include:
- Monitoring GHG Emissions: Continuous data collection enables real-time air quality monitoring and predictive analysis to identify potential threats.
- Climate Change Impact Monitoring: The system integrates historical and current data to assess climate change effects on the port area.
- Early Warning System: It provides timely notifications of hazardous events to minimize climate-related risks.
- Community Engagement: The system visualizes data to inform maritime communities and stakeholders about climate change impacts and strategies.
Marina-Breath™ offers a proactive management approach, with a user-friendly, portable, and cost-effective design for easy adoption by port authorities. EMBIO Diagnostics Ltd has over five years of experience in air quality monitoring, and the Marina-Breath™ system reflects its commitment to innovation and environmental stewardship. By integrating this system, the Port of Limassol sets a benchmark for other ports, promoting collaborative climate adaptation and environmental protection efforts.
