Industry collaboration

STA Task Groups

The Source Testing Association and its members help shape emission-monitoring practice, guidance and standards through specialist task groups.

Shaping the future of emission monitoring and guidance

The Health & Safety Task Group is STA’s longest-running group, closely followed by the Quality and Technical Task Group. New groups have been added as industry needs have developed, including Process Operators, Equipment Suppliers, Low Particulate Monitoring, EN14181, HCl, Carbon Capture and EN17255-4.

Each task group identifies and addresses industry challenges with input from STA members and regulators across the UK and Ireland.
