In quest of improved photo switches, azoheteroarenes have emerged as a potential alternative to azobenzenes. However, to date the number and types of these species that have been subjected to study are insufficient to provide an in-depth understanding of t ...
Most works on AOP technologies aimed at removing contaminants from water have focused on the influence of experimental variables on the overall removal rate of specific target contaminants. Few studies have been devoted to proposing detailed kinetic models ...
The growing world population, in conjunction with climate change, cases the global water de-mand to increase. It is, therefore, crucial to protect existing water resources from chemical pollution and contamination by pathogens. An increasingly popular stra ...
In Havana, transport is blamed as a likely source of pollution issues. which is usually supported on arguments referring to a vehicle fleet mainly made of old cars (i.e., most models are American from the 1950s or Russian from the 1980s) with poor technica ...
Natural polymers such as those present in foods contain abundant noncovalent intra- and intermolecular interactions, notably hydrogen bonds, which make them rigid when dry, but on exposure to water soften, due to disruption of these interactions. This soft ...
Wildfires and associated emissions of particulate matter pose significant environmental and health concerns. In this study we propose tools to evaluate building resilience to extreme episodes of outdoor particulate matter using a combination of indoor and ...
Indoor air pollution has been ranked among the top five environmental risks to public health. Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) is proven to have significant impacts on people's comfort, health, and performance. Through a systematic literature review in the area of ...
A transition towards smart buildings is one of the challenges of the 21st century. To achieve this goal, the use of smart sensors and smart appliances can be crucial. Although research about linking real-time monitoring and the operation mode of building a ...
Here we present the new project “Indoor Chemical Human Emissions and Reactivity” (ICHEAR), which is focused on examining the role of human emissions on indoor air chemistry. The specific goal of this project is to investigate the impact of exhaled and derm ...
OBJECTIVE To assess risks and costs of hospital admission associated with short term exposure to fine particulate matter with diameter less than 2.5 mu m (PM2.5) for 214 mutually exclusive disease groups. DESIGN Time stratified, case crossover analyses wit ...
