Based on previous findings (Jans, U., Hoigne, J., 1998. Ozone Sci. Eng. 20, 67-87), the activity of activated carbon for the transformation of ozone into e OH radicals including the influence of operational parameters (carbon dose, ozone dose, carbon-type ...
During the last few decades, air pollution has become one of the major environmental and public health issue in every important cities over the world. Photochemical pollutants, like ozone which play a central role in today's air pollution problems, are for ...
We use a chemical transport model (GEOS-CHEM) to quantify the contribution of long-range transported pollution to the European ozone ({O}{3}) budget for the year 1997. The model reproduces the main features observed over Europe for {O}{3}, carbon monoxid ...
The reductive transformation of the 10 most-widely distributed fluorinated volatile compounds and of tetrachloroethene was investigated for up to 177 days under anaerobic conditions in sewage sludge and aquifer sediment slurries. Concentrations of parent c ...
The impact of human activities on the global climate may lead to large disruptions of the economic, social and political status quo in the middle and long term. Understanding the dynamics of the Earth's climate is thus of paramount importance and one of th ...
A model was developed to simultaneously assess Cryptosporidium parvum oocyst inactivation and bromate formation during ozonation of synthetic solutions in batch and flow-through reactors. The model incorporated 65 elementary chemical reactions involved in ...
Potentially carcinogenic bromate forms during the ozonation of bromide-containing waters. Some water treatment facilities have had to use ammonia addition and pH depression to minimize bromate formation, but these processes may prove to be insufficient to ...
Water vapour has been measured from the International Scientific Station Jungfraujoch (ISSJ, 47° N, 7° E, 3580 in above sea level) during the winters of 1999/2000 and 2000/2001 by microwave radiometry and Raman lidar. The abundance of atmospheric water vap ...
Providing our society with goods and services contributes to a wide range of environmental impacts. Waste generation, emissions and the consumption of resources occur at many stages in a product's life cycle-from raw material extraction, energy acquisition ...
The remarkable effect on lifetime improvement of copper phthalocianine (CuPc) coated indium tin oxide (ITO) anode of organic light emitting diodes (OLED's) is experimentally well approved. Also known are the electrode morphology, with and without CuPc coat ...
