How many of us understands technology? Well that actually
depends on the type of technology we are handling, right? We can all agree that
for most of us, our idea of technology is surrounding computers, the Internet,
and the next best game app and consoles. However, for some people, technology
involves machineries and other process that can improve the quality of living.
All right, before you actually freak out about the idea,
just take this into consideration, how many of us totally understands how we
are able to live carelessly and safely? Like, is everything we have simple? Do
we take in air and be healthy just like that?
Well, how about if we tell you that there are professions
that look into the details of the basic stuff—too basic we almost do not pay
attention or notice them—to understand how they work?
Stuff like what? How about if we tell you that there are
professionals that look into the components of natural stuff like water and air
to understand how they work and what comprises it?
So We Study Air?
We are all aware from our elementary classes that we study
everything in earth. So, that means and confirms that there are people who look
at the different particles in the air just to look at its quality. Moreover, if
you haven’t heard, then let this be like an air
particle counter 101.
In case you haven’t been introduced to the idea, there is
such a tool called particle
counters. In Singapore there are
companies that specialize on them. In fact, they have also invented liquid
particle counter. Calibration of
these tools are involved in good service as well. If you do search online for a company that
produces different tools needed for industries that cater to understanding
different matters such as metal, liquid, and gas, then you would be lucky to
find out that they do have machineries for these areas or fields of work most
of us probably have not heard of.
What is this?
So, before you get too overwhelmed, let us define what these
counters are.
As mentioned, there are tools involved in counting particles
in liquid or air. We are not going to be too technical about it but here is how
it works: as the matter pass through a
chamber—just think if it as the machine—light is used in order to focus on the
different particles on them. We are talking about particles on a cell here so
this is a really technical process.
What happens is they are recorded via computer and then the
images are analyzed. This process makes use of high definition camera in order
to clearly detect particles. This is an important job as this will help
determine if there are any harmful chemical contamination in a sample. And if
there is, then the necessary cleaning or sanitation must be done. However, do
not think of it is as a really easy job. Machines used need to undergo a lot of
checking, too. The company performing and selling the counters would have to
secure licenses and other government permits, too.
