Growing population, extensive use (and abuse) of the natural resources, increasing pollutants emissions in the atmosphere: these are a few obstacles (and not the least) one has to face with nowadays to ensure the sustainability of our planet in general, an ...
The concentration and chemical composition of ambient fine particulate material (PM2.5) is reported for two sampling sites in the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania metropolitan area: the Department of Energy, National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) PM study si ...
Introduction In 1987, the need to strive towards development aimed at making it possible to satisfy the present needs without compromising the needs of future generations is generally acknowledged. The Rio Earth Summit in 1992 propagated Agenda 211, whi ...
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 ...
An episode selection procedure was developed and applied to select sets of days representing characteristic meteorol. conditions leading to high ozone episodes over the Swiss Plateau. The selection procedure was applied to data extending from Jan. 1991 thr ...
Expected urban air concentrations of the gasoline additive methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) were calculated using volatile emissions estimates and screening transport models, and these predictions were compared with Boston, MA, area urban air measurement ...
The links between air pollution gas phase chem., aerosol chem. processes, and solar radiation are calcd. to improve air quality models. Air quality models are used to simulate pollutant content of the city plumes such as for Los Angeles. ...
The new IMPACT 2002+ life cycle impact assessment methodology proposes a feasible implementation of a combined midpoint/ damage approach, linking all types of life cycle inventory results (elementary flows and other interventions) via 14 midpoint categorie ...
