Many wireless devices consist of built-in intelligence that automatically identifies and links to the wireless building network by pushing a button that adds the device to the network.
  • The US government is at the forefront of the fight against climate change. The country has a strong record of advancing technologies and techniques to reduce greenhouse gas emissions as part of this fight. According to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), in the United States, the oil and gas industry is the largest industrial source of methane emissions, which emits more methane than the total emissions of all greenhouse gases from 164 countries combined. Oil and natural operations also emit toxic air pollutants such as benzene and smog-forming volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
  • In November 2021, the US government launched an initiative to reduce emissions from the oil and gas industry significantly. Through actions, the United States is catalyzing similar efforts worldwide, working in partnership with the European Union to lead a Global Methane Pledge to reduce overall methane emissions by 30% below 2020 levels by 2030.
  • Researchers are implementing advanced technologies for designing to manufacture gas sensors in response to many new and emerging requirements and applications. Some of the research sectors include wearable gas sensors, energy-harvesting gas sensors, and gas sensors in mobile phones.
  • During the pandemic, gas sensor firms have developed new products to maintain the cash flow. For instance, AerNos, Inc. intends to highlight its nano gas sensor technologies and capabilities targeted at the Smart Home market. For applications involving the monitoring of dangerous gases and indoor air quality, AerNos is introducing embeddable solutions with ground-breaking gas-sensing capabilities.
