Size-resolved inhalation intake fractions for particles released from human activities in residential indoor environments

Inhalation exposure to elevated concentrations of airborne particulate matter is a public health concern. Assessment of exposure can be enhanced through better knowledge of source-receptor relationships, which can be characterized through the inhalation in ...

Aerosol-into-liquid capture and detection of atmospheric soluble metals across the gas–liquid interface using Janus-membrane electrodes

Jian Wang, Christian Ludwig, Tianyu Cen, Min Gao

The soluble fraction of atmospheric transition metals is particularly associated with health effects such as reactive oxygen species compared to total metals. However, direct measurements of the soluble fraction are restricted to sampling and detection uni ...

Salt-mediated inactivation of influenza A virus in 1- μl droplets exhibits exponential dependence on NaCl molality

Athanasios Nenes, Tamar Kohn, Kalliopi Violaki, Ghislain Gilles Jean-Michel Motos, Aline Laetitia Schaub, Shannon Christa David, Walter Hugentobler, Céline Terrettaz, Laura Costa, Laura José Costa Henriques

Influenza A virus (IAV) spreads through airborne particles ranging from sub-micrometer to millimeter-sized droplets. The stability of airborne IAV remains difficult to estimate and depends, among others, on the respiratory matrix composition and the size-d ...

Aerosol pH is an overlooked driver of airborne influenza and coronavirus inactivation

Tamar Kohn

The current pandemic has added to the growing evidence that respiratory viruses can be transmitted by the airborne route. Non-pharmaceutical interventions, such as mask wearing or ventilation, aim to reduce the public health burden of respiratory diseases ...

Bulk size-resolved chemical composition and mass concentration of non-refractory submicron aerosols measured in the Swiss container during MOSAiC 2019/2020

Julia Schmale, Ivo Fabio Beck, Benjamin Jérémy Laurent Heutte, Imad El Haddad, Hélène Paule Angot, Lubna Dada

This dataset contains the bulk size-resolved chemical composition and mass concentration of non-refractory submicron aerosols (NR-PM1) measured during the MOSAiC expedition from October 2019 to July 2020. These include the mass concentrations of sulfate (S ...

Measurement report: High Arctic aerosol hygroscopicity at sub- and supersaturated conditions during spring and summer

Jakob Boyd Pernov

Aerosol hygroscopic growth and cloud droplet formation influence the radiation transfer budget of the atmosphere and thereby the climate. In the Arctic, these aerosol properties may have a more pronounced effect on the climate compared to the midlatitudes. ...

CFD Simulation of Particle-Laden Flow in a 3D Differentially Heated Cavity Using Coarse Large Eddy Simulation

Konstantin Mikityuk, Abdelouahab Dehbi

Particulate flow in closed space is involved in many engineering applications. In this paper, the prediction of particle removal is investigated in a thermally driven 3D cavity at turbulent Rayleigh number Ra = 1E9 using Coarse Large Eddy Simulation (CLES) ...

Integrated Aerodynamic/Electrochemical Microsystem for Collection and Detection of Nanogram-level Airborne Bioaccessible Metals

Jian Wang, Christian Ludwig, Tianyu Cen, Jiukai Tang

The soluble fraction of aerosol particulate matter containing trace metals has the potential to engender toxicity and exacerbate the adverse health effects of particulate matter. In this study, an inertial-impaction-based fluidic chip integrated with elect ...

Simultaneous Reciprocal and Real Space X-Ray Imaging of Time-Evolving Systems

Goran Lovric, Marco Stampanoni

Imaging the (sub)micron scale over large areas with high temporal resolution becomes increasingly necessary for the development and investigation of novel materials under realistic operation conditions. Small angle x-ray scattering imaging methods provide ...

Kinetic model basis of ozone/light-based advanced oxidation processes: a pseudoempirical approach

Eva Maria Rodriguez Franco

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 ...
