The ACMCC (Aerosol Chemical Monitor Calibration Center) is formed by a consortium of French laboratories : CEA, CNRS (LSCE and LaMP) and INERIS. It is based at LSCE, about 25 km South of Paris.
The aim of the infrastructure is to guarantee the quality of data from on-line aerosol chemical monitors and therefore to build capacity for high-quality in situ chemical characterisation of aerosols.
It provides a large set of independent co-located aerosol measurements for chemical, physical and optical parameters. It offers innovation opportunities through the exchange of information between manufacturers and users, the optimization of technological solutions, and the evaluation of new online aerosol chemical analyzers.
ACMCC is a reference for ACSM measurements in Europe (ACTRIS Research Infrastructure) and in France (LCSQA).
The centre is organized around different pillars and carries out activities related to research and innovation, training and labelisation, and the development of guidelines and tools. As part of its Calibration expertise, the centre regularly organizes intercomparison campaigns and workshops. Other services related to Data Management are proposed in the frame of ACSM Data valorisation.
Intercomparisons
We are thrilled to announce the start of our new interlaboratory comparison campaign for automatic aerosol chemical composition analyzers, an ambitious scientific project aimed at deepening our understanding of how these instruments operate. Currently in the installation phase, we are carefully setting up measurement equipment and advanced scientific instruments at the SIRTA site, a crucial […]
General News
We are thrilled to announce the arrival of two new members to our team: Hasna Chebaicheb, a Q-ACSM specialist, and Antonin Berge, an instrumentation engineer from the calibration center.
Events
Our next ACSM intercomparison will take place at LSCE from November 12 to December 2. As part of this campaign, between November 20 and November 22, several events hosted at/by ACMCC will take place. ECAC/ACMCC is proposing an on-site technical workshop on 20/11/2024 afternoon dedicated to ACSM QA/QC, including hands-on trainings and SOP revisions. This […]
