MASSALYA is open to scientific communities of both the academic and private sectors, upon request.
MASSALYA is equipped with numerous on-line analyzers for chemical and physical characterization of both aerosol and gaseous phases of the atmospheres. The equipments can be used via the truck itself so to study the outdoor atmosphere; they can also be easily removed in order to be placed in confined atmospheres.
