Continuous Emission Monitoring System (CEMS) is a critical tool for accurate pollution monitoring and reporting, essential for industries across India.
In 2014, Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) mandated the installation of CEMS in 17 categories of highly polluting industries and common pollution control facilities.
Recently CSIR-NPL has developed a certification scheme, NPLI CS and associated testing facilities for CEMS.
The CEMS was certified by TUV/MECERT and the United States Environmental Protection Agency.
The CSIR-NPL certification procedure aligns with the European standard EN-15267 (Parts 1, 2 and 3).
