Chart air quality data
What’s new
The Department of Environment and Science is introducing smoke sensors to provide more Queensland communities with local indicative measurements and health action advice during smoke and dust events. This sensor network will continue to expand into more locations over time. Sensor measurements can be viewed in the data table under the new 'Sensor' tab, or via the smoke and dust health action levels page.
Hydrogen sulfide monitoring is being undertaken in the Swanbank area by the department in response to community concerns around odour.

About Toluene
Toluene is a colourless organic liquid. Burning organic matter, such as wood, coal and petroleum products generates toluene, and it occurs naturally in crude oil. Motor vehicle emissions are the main source of toluene in the urban air environment, although evaporative losses from fuel storage facilities and service stations, as well as the use of toluene-based solvents and thinners are other contributors.
The guideline for Toluene is 1000ppb (24hr avg).
Toluene is measured in parts per billion.
