Nitrogen Dioxide Sensing Technologies

The harmful impacts of nitrogen dioxide (NO2) include acid rain, respiratory diseases, allergy and photochemical smog. These also causes throat, eye and nose problems, cough, nausea and tiredness in extremely low concentrations (<10 ppm). So, detection and the sensing of NO2 gas is considered as one of the most important detecting techniques. Numerous electronic sensors, semiconductor nanomaterials, carbon nanotubes, graphene, activated carbon and mixed metal oxides have been investigated in order to detect and sense NO2. Several varieties of gas sensors including electrochemical, catalytic combustion, semiconductor and solid electrolyte gas sensors, have been industrialized.
