ARIA TECHNOLOGIES

At ARIA Technologies we specialise in computation of pollutant dispersion, meteorological analysis, wind, emission, and air quality modeling.

ARIA Technologies works with leading European laboratories to offer the most suitable solutions to industry, government, and engineering consultancies.

ARIA Technologies provides comprehensive software applications and systems catering to customer requirements.

These tools are developed by our own engineers, and this enables us to guarantee stability along with innovation in response to user and market responses.

Simulation tools developed by ARIA Technologies cover a large domain of applications ranging from continental to local scale, to analyze all types of pollution from in-door pollution to accidental releases as well as the impact of vehicular traffic on air pollution. Depending on their requirement, every user can find a solution to their problem.

ARIA Technologies' expertise lies in two complementary approaches: design and development of computer-based simulation systems and consulting services.

ARIA Technologies was founded in 1990 in Paris to respond to a single concern, the study of the atmospheric environment through digital simulation of the dispersion of pollutants in the atmosphere. This single-focused specialization has enabled ARIA Technologies to build a comprehensive team of engineers, research scientists, and environment specialists who bring together the knowledge of:

• Fluid Dynamics (CFD)
• Meteorology
• Atmospheric chemistry
• Applied computing
• Geographic Information Systems (GIS)

These competences enable ARIA Technologies to offer a wide array of services like conducting research studies, training, consulting and providing third-party expertise.
