Application of Electrochemical Sensing Technology in Environmental Monitoring and Its Development Prospects

Abstract

In the current environmental protection scenario, environmental monitoring is particularly crucial. As an emerging monitoring method, electrochemical sensing technology is gradually gaining prominence due to its unique advantages. This technology not only has high sensitivity and can detect trace substances in the environment quickly, but it also comes at a relatively low cost, making it easier to promote and use in various grassroots units. In the realm of air monitoring, electrochemical sensing technology can track the concentration of pollutants in the air in real-time, including sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, and other harmful gases. The presence of these gases will not only affect air quality but may also pose a threat to human health. Through electrochemical sensing technology, we can monitor the concentration of pollutants in the air promptly and implement necessary measures to control them. In the realm of water quality monitoring, electrochemical sensing technology also plays a crucial role. Heavy metals, organic matter, and other pollutants in water can be detected through electrochemical sensing technology. Compared with traditional water quality monitoring methods, electrochemical sensing technology offers a faster response speed and higher sensitivity, enabling better reflection of real-time changes in water quality.
