This report aims to measure the air quality in term of level of PM2.5 in the Hong Kong Institute of Education and to observe animal and plant cells under light microscope.
Based on the field trip on 10th November, 2015, our observation on the solid waste treatment process in North East New Territories (NENT) landfill will be discussed, as well as the overall solid waste management strategy in Hong Kong.

Zielsetzung und Themenschwerpunkte (Objectives and Key Themes)
This report details the findings of experiments measuring PM2.5 levels in various locations within the Hong Kong Institute of Education. The objectives were to assess air quality, specifically focusing on PM2.5 concentration, and to investigate the influence of factors such as air conditioning and room size on these levels.
- Air quality assessment using PM2.5 as an indicator.
- Impact of air conditioning on indoor PM2.5 levels.
- Influence of room size on indoor PM2.5 levels.
- Comparison of PM2.5 levels in different indoor environments.
- Methodology and data analysis techniques in environmental science.
Zusammenfassung der Kapitel (Chapter Summaries)
Laboratory Report 1: This report details an experiment measuring PM2.5 levels in the Hong Kong Institute of Education. The experiment utilized both Minivol and DustTrak devices to measure PM2.5 concentrations in an air-conditioned laboratory, a non-air-conditioned classroom, and a non-air-conditioned lecture theatre. The rationale behind using different devices and locations was to investigate the impact of both air conditioning and room size on PM2.5 levels. The results showed significantly lower PM2.5 levels in the air-conditioned laboratory compared to the non-air-conditioned classroom, suggesting a strong correlation between air conditioning and reduced particulate matter concentration. The comparison between the classroom and the lecture theatre also revealed a significant difference in PM2.5 concentration, highlighting the effect of room size on air quality. The discussion analyzes these findings in relation to air convection and atmospheric inversion, proposing further investigation into the effects of measurement height within non-air-conditioned spaces.
