Estimation of road traffic emission factors from a long term tracer study

Alain Clappier, Luis Carlos Belalcazar Ceron, Erika Maria Zarate Torres, Minh Dung Ho

Road traffic emissions, one of the largest source categories in megacity inventories, are highly uncertain. It is essential to develop methodologies to reduce these uncertainties to manage air quality more effectively. In this paper, we propose a methodolo ...

Fine particle emission factors from vehicles in a highway tunnel: Effects of fleet composition and season

Satoshi Takahama

In-use, fuel-based motor vehicle emission factors were determined using measurements made in a highway tunnel in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Concentrations Of PM2.5 mass, CO, CO2, and NO, were measured continuously. Filter-based measurements included PM2.5 m ...

Structured combustion catalysts based on sintered metal fibre filters

Albert Renken, Lioubov Kiwi

Novel efficient structured combustion catalysts based on sintered metal fiber filters (MFF) were developed. To increase sp. surface area (SSA), metal fibers were coated by crack-free porous oxide films of SiO2, Al2O3, porous glass, and mesoporous SBA-15 si ...

Metal grids with high-porous surface as structured catalysts: preparation, characterization and activity in propane total oxidation

Albert Renken, Lioubov Kiwi

Metal nickel and copper grids are shown to be suitable supports for structured combustion catalysts. The increase of sp. surface area (SSA) of metal grids was achieved due to the porous outer layer with the structure of Raney metal developed on the wire su ...
