Chief Innovation Scientist
Opgal, HaZafon, Israel
Dr. Hashmonay is an international expert in the development and implementation of optical remote sensing (ORS) and other advanced air monitoring methodologies. He is the co-inventor of the Radial Plume Mapping method (EPA Other Test Method 10 [OTM-10], Optical Remote Sensing for Emission Characterization from Non-Point Sources). In projects performed under Dr. Hashmonay's direction for both public and private sector clients, advanced methods have been used to measure gaseous and particulate emissions from sources as diverse as landfills, concentrated animal feeding operations, wastewater treatment plants, chlor-alkali plants,
refueling stations, military aircraft, fugitive dust from military activities, open burning, barges, near-road mobile sources, agricultural operations, fertilizer manufacturing plants, oil & gas production facilities, coke oven batteries, chemical manufacturing plants and petroleum refineries. These field experiments provided essential data for calculating emission factors for these sources. His methods have also been applied for emergency response as well as for human health and safety applications.
