Air Quality in urban areas and other hot spots, where transport emissions induce a large impact on human exposure remains an environmental problem of high complexity with strong public interest. Despite the significant improvements achieved, adverse health effects are found to be of high concern. There is strong evidence that, despite strict emission standards, “real world” emissions is accepted as term indicating a status of partial success of these measures and technological advances in fossil fuel emission control, while new sources such as non-exhaust emissions and micro plastics are becoming significant. A large level of uncertainty arising from the assessment and mitigation of these sources and especially the internal combustion engines arises from their physicochemical transformation from the tailpipe/stack to the ambient environment. The metrics and parameterization employed on the data analyzed from the environmental monitoring networks and measurement systems are poorly representing the material initially emitted by the specifications of these engines certified by the manufacturers and the control legislation. It is therefore difficult to link the health and other environmental effects to specific sources or modes of transport with few exceptions. Human exposure, dosimetry and burden of disease modelling will be assessed. The output will be linked to epidemiological studies across Europe and a specific epidemiological product of the extracted impact due to transport will be sought. The project will provide innovative means in terms of monitoring devices and schemes of data analysis and management and a network of monitoring stations close to Transport emission hots, in order to remedy the traceability of the emitted pollutants from transport sources to the atmosphere and the assessment of applied legislation and control measures through a mitigating solution Toolbox.

Development of a new primary reference standard for radio frequency power based on the electro-optical effect, in cooperation with COMET (industry partner, Switzerland) and the University of Otago (technology partner, New Zealand). Ideally, the new standard will achieve comparable or even higher accuracy than the classic methods based on thermal effects (e.g., microcalorimeters), as well as significantly shorter measurement times. The University of Otago manufactures the electro-optical elements according to specifications. COMET and METAS implement these elements in coaxial cable structures for the measurement of high power at low frequencies and low power at high frequencies. Characterization and validation of the systems are carried out by METAS and COMET.

The transition to a circular economy where waste is considered as a resource to manufacture new materials and products will become increasingly important for Switzerland and Europe in the near future. With this project, we want to start positioning METAS into this new topic and especially lay the foundations for the development of inorganic analytics for sewage sludge recycling. Through this project, METAS will establish the basis to become a reference for phosphorus recycling and sewage sludge analysis. In the first part of this project, we aim to develop methods to characterize the elemental composition (quantification of total mass fractions of elements and their speciation) of sewage sludge ash and more specifically for phosphorus recycling from sewage sludge. In the second part a Certified Reference Material (CRM) will be developed for the determination of nutrients (such as P) and toxic elements (such as As, Cd and Pb) in sewage sludge ash. New contacts and ideas for further projects in the field of metrology for circular economy should further be built up in the third part of the project. The fourth part is going to be used for the organization of a PhD project in the field of trace metal speciation in sewage sludge and mineral fertilizers.

Light has a profound impact on humans, and ongoing clinical research is being carried out on the biological and physiological effects of light on sleep, health and wellbeing. Wearable light loggers are lightweight wireless devices that measure the light doses that humans incur over time. though new standardised methods and metrics have been introduced in CIE S026, calibration and characterisation of such dosimeters remains challenging. This metrological gap extends to UV radiation dosimeters. This project will provide guidance on the characterisation and use of wearable light loggers and the data they produce to ensure their reliability for the studies that use them. Daylight has always been part of human life, regulating physiological activity and cadencing many aspects of society. At the same time, the invention of electric lighting has led to more and more people spending the day indoors and lately, working from home. However, the intensity of artificial light is a fraction of that of daylight and the spectral composition is also different. While the study of sources and lighting can always be done in laboratories or controlled conditions, the direct effects of light on human physiology needs field measurements of the light dose humans receive in real settings. Moving laboratory equipment being highly impractical, wearable light loggers have been used to assess the light exposure of humans in clinical research, as they can be carried and provide first-hand data about light exposure throughout the day of a subject. However, their compact and lightweight, black-box design introduces a variety of limitations that leads to inaccuracies, inappropriate metrics or non-representative data. How the data is processed depends on a number of parameters for each device, such as the number and type of sensor used, sampling rate, data format and model. There is no current guideline or standard for the characterisation of these devices, leading to highly unreliable data and wasted time due to inappropriate device specifications and/or data processing and interpretation. In TN002:2014, CIE has identified the need to harmonize photobiological and photometric quantities. With the rapidly evolving field of lighting (future revision of CIE S025, publication of CIE S026, introduction of daylighting by EN 17037 and revision of workplace lighting in EN12464-1) and the spread of wearable devices of all kinds, it is important to keep metrology recommendations and guidelines up to date to ensure reliable studies that underpin future health recommendations and policies.

Inverters, large electronic power converters, and active filters, are increasingly being used in the deployment of renewable energy sources. This development has led to a proliferation of network voltage and current disturbances, observable in the form of harmonics from the switching frequency up to hundreds of kHz on medium-voltage networks. The aim of this project is to develop traceable measurement methods and procedures for the characterization of the instrument transformers used to measure disturbances of up to 150 kHz in medium-voltage networks. The project partners are working closely with IEC Technical Committee 38 to ensure that the project results are incorporated into technical standards. The project results will benefit the metrology community, medium-voltage system manufacturers and academic research.

The SI-traceability of spectroradiometric measurements of optical radiation in a multitude of applications (monitoring essential climate variables, industrial processes, lighting, healthcare, occupational safety, photovoltaic energy generation, etc.) has been realised by means of incandescent lamps-based transfer standards. The availability of the lamps, though, is diminishing due to a production phaseout of incandescent lighting products. The project aims to provide adequate and affordable replacement sources and alternative procedures for a detector-based transfer of the spectral irradiance unit in the ultraviolet-visible-near infrared spectral range and to establish an integrated European metrology infrastructure around this key radiometric unit. Accurate knowledge of spectral irradiance of optical radiation emitted by artificial and natural light sources is essential in various fields of industrial (UV-curing, disinfection, photovoltaic equipment, general and horticultural lighting, etc.), environmental (solar radiation, Essential Climate Variables (ECVs), etc.), medical (sun beds, photobiological treatment, etc.), or scientific (analytical spectroscopy, plasma, etc.) applications. The range of applications for spectral irradiance measurements has grown dramatically during the last couple of decades due to the market introduction of affordable new-technology spectroradiometers based on array detectors and digital capabilities for in situ processing of the spectral data. The routine availability of the spectral characteristics of optical radiation sources is seen as one of the technological enablers for higher-quality products, information, and services. For the calibration of spectroradiometers, incandescent lamp-based transfer standards have been used for decades. Selected quartz-tungsten-halogen (QTH) lamps of certain types have been applied to disseminate the spectral irradiance unit in the spectral range from 250 nm to 2500 nm. However, the market availability of such lamps and their applicability for this metrological purpose is diminishing due to the production phaseout following the ban of the incandescent lighting by the EU Commission in 2009 and by a technology change to solid-state-lighting (SSL) products. Thus, alternative transfer standards built on new-technology sources with preferably smooth spectra throughout the UV-VIS-NIR spectral range and/or detector-based dissemination methods are urgently needed. The urgent needs for the research activities addressed by the project are explicitly described in the orientation papers by two major stakeholders, European Association of National Metrology Institutes (EURAMET) Technical Committee for Photometry and Radiometry (TC-PR) as well as Division 2 of the International Commission on Illumination (CIE). The need for new standards triggered by the transition to solid-state lighting has been expressed also in the research strategy papers by the Consultative Committee for Photometry and Radiometry (CCPR) of the International Committee for Weights and Measures (CIPM), EURAMET, and CIE.

Swisens is the world leading instrument manufacturer in the field of bioaerosol monitoring. They have equipped the Swiss monitoring network with about 20 instruments (e.g., Poleno) and they are now doing the same in Ireland and other counties worldwide. The Poleno monitor relies on holography and machine learning to identify pollen and fungal spore particles. The morphology of these particles differs from country to country and the Poleno algorithms need to be re-trained in each country with labour-intensive and extensive field campaigns. The reference method with which the Poleno is compared is the Hirst impactor, a method known for its high uncertainties (>30%). The idea behind this proposal is to: 1) implement new algorithms (e.g. zero-shot learning techniques, few-shot and semi-supervised learning techniques) so that the monitoring system can be deployed in new regions with new bioaerosol types without expensive data labeling efforts; and 2) establish a new reference method for particle counting in the size range relevant for pollen (>15 µm) for calibrating the Poleno in the laboratory.

The project has so far covered the evaluation of deep learning-based algorithms on synthetic data and simulations for a district heating network using open-source libraries along with real-world datasets for Internet of Things (IoT) air-pollution monitoring platforms. Two approaches were used: one purely data-driven and one using physics-enhanced deep learning. The general methodology within the project is based on graph representation learning (graph signal processing and graph neural networks), alongside the integration of physics-based formulas. This selected methodology, focusing on graph representation learning, has been chosen for its effectiveness in comparison to traditional machine learning and deep learning methods, particularly in the context of sensor networks. The success control involves ongoing comparison and evaluation of the performance of graph representation learning against alternative methods, ensuring that the chosen approach consistently demonstrates its efficacy in addressing the unique challenges posed by sensor networks within the project. The algorithms were tested on a simulated dataset of a district heating network serving four customers, and a real-world dataset from electricity meters in Bern, and their performance in forecasting energy consumption was evaluated. The algorithms are able to capture spatial correlations within the sensor network, and they are able to successfully forecast energy consumption for the next 24-hours, based on the previous week's data.

Il sistema sarà indipendente dalla rete di teleriscaldamento e può essere utilizzato come sistema stand-alone e, se disponibile, può utilizzare reti come fonti o dissipatori di calore. La soluzione (combinata al sistema energetico e allo stoccaggio di energia sviluppato in WP05) sarà testato in condizioni realistiche (temperatura, richiesta del profilo di carico, ecc.). L'obiettivo è ottimizzare un prototipo combinato energia-sistema in relazione agli aspetti tecnologici e socio-economici al fine di dimostrare la risultante soluzione del sistema maturo nel successivo progetto di lavoro di ricerca e sviluppo.

Scanning microwave microscopy (SMM) is used successfully in the semiconductor industry, but the technology has so far been used rather sparingly in the life sciences. It has already been shown (e.g. in Kazemi et al. (2018)) that the method can be used to detect abnormalities in biological tissues. SMM can also be used in other areas of the life sciences, such as in the production of functionalized proteins for process monitoring. This project aims to test and promote these applications. Furthermore, SMM has so far only been used in laboratories, as the technology is too fragile for many industrial (in-line) environments. The patent application for the SMM measurement head with mediator presents a solution to this problem. The methodology developed and the measurement setup are to be further promoted and developed in the project. References F. Kazemi, F. Mohanna, and J.

In continuous operation, this network produces large amounts of data containing information about the interference processes that the optical fiber is exposed to. Initial explorations have shown that a detailed analysis of this data can be relevant for seismology as well as for the precise characterization of anthropogenic noise signals (e.g. rail and passenger transport traffic). Accordingly, the two main project aims are: - Analysis and classification of anthropogenic acoustic noise signals. This analysis is carried out as an interdisciplinary collaboration with the data science team. The large amount of data will be processed and analyzed using machine learning and neural network tools. The results of this analysis can help to identify ideal conditions for frequency transmission (e.g. time interval of particularly low anthropogenic influences). Furthermore, the large amount of continuous data provides an ideal toolbox for the data science team. - Analysis and modeling of interference signals from specific seismic events (earthquakes). This part of the study is undertaken in collaboration with the Seismology and Wavephysics Group at ETH Zurich (Prof. A. Fichtner) and has already showed very promising results.

During the Innosuisse LCSS project (2019-2022), a difference of several orders of magnitude was observed in the values (mV) measured by the sensors during the outdoor campaign, despite full calibration in the laboratory beforehand. This project aims to find the explanation for this discrepancy, by participating in the 2023 ACTRIS ATMO ACCESS and using a semi-open atmospheric chamber in Spain (ACTRIS infrastructure: EUPHORE). This provides an intermediary solution between laboratory calibration and outdoor measurements. In the chamber, semi-controlled ambient air can be used.

An operator of a power plant system, consisting of several power plants and many different machine units, needs to deliver reactive power as specified by the higher-level grid operator via a target voltage at the feed-in node. This time-varying target voltage results in a certain total reactive power, that the power plant operator must provide at the grid node. This total reactive power must now be distributed at any time to the various machine units currently in operation, considering their current active power supply. In the project the distribution of reactive power generation to the various machine units is to be optimised in such a way that the total power losses of all machine units involved are minimised. In addition to the theoretical investigation, a calculation tool is to be developed for this purpose, which can be made freely available via the homepage of the University of Applied Sciences and Arts Northwestern Switzerland (FHNW), for example.

Für das Emissionsmodell in Agrammon werden im Geflügelbereich Emissionswerte aus ausländischen Studien verwendet. Diese dienen zur Abschätzung der Basisemission und auch für die Modellierung der Wirkung von emissionsmindernden Techniken. Um jedoch für die unter Schweizer Bedingungen verlässlichen Werte zu ermitteln, sind Messungen in Ställen erforderlich. Dabei sollen während mehreren Umtrieben die Emissionen eines Mastgeflügelstalls gemessen werden. Zudem sollen Messungen durchgeführt werden, um die Wirkung der heute auf dem Markt verfügbaren Techniken zur Emissionsminderung zu quantifizieren. Konkret sollen die Bodenheizung und die Wärmerückgewinnung in der Abluft als emissionsmindernde Techniken untersucht werden. Im Rahmen des vorliegenden Projektes sollen die Emissionen während eines Mastumtriebes in den Sommermonaten gemessen werden. Das Ziel ist es, die erhobenen Emissionsdaten ins Modell Agrammon einfliessen zu lassen, um für die Schweizer Geflügelhaltung verlässliche Emissionswerte zu berücksichtigen.

In depth-knowledge of the three different dPCR systems including the software will be built. The comparability of the three systems will be investigated using GMO reference materials that are available in the NRL and are routinely used. As an alternative or in addition to the GMO reference materials, the Vibrio-Sequin DNA standards (Flütsch et al., 2023) with the corresponding assays can also be measured on the three devices in order to obtain a comparison. Suitable protocols for the three systems will be developed, taking into account the technical specifications of the devices (permissible master mixes and probes) and, as far as possible, the existing standard protocols. Finally, the measurements obtained will be statistically evaluated, including measurement uncertainty.
