Authorities and end users involved in the prevention and defence against hazards posed by CE substances are faced with the task of selecting the appropriate measurement technology for their purposes. The market offers a wide range of different measuring instruments and measurement methods, which must be assessed for their suitability for the respective application scenario.

The aim of the SEMFreS project was to simplify this selection process for end users who are not scientifically involved in the subject matter by enabling them to select a measuring device that meets their requirements based on a release scenario and an associated evaluation scheme. In the project, relevant release scenarios for selected industrial chemicals, chemical warfare agents and explosives, releases induced by criminal acts or accidents, preventive or hazard elimination approaches were recorded in accordance with the specifications of the participating BOS.
