Design and fabrication of an electrostatic precipitator for infrared spectroscopy

Satoshi Takahama, Nikunj Dudani

Infrared (IR) spectroscopy is a direct measurement technique for chemical characterization of aerosols that can be applied without solvent extraction thermal treatment a priori. This technique has been used for chemical speciation, source apportionment, an ...

Characterization of primary and aged wood burning and coal combustion organic aerosols in an environmental chamber and its implications for atmospheric aerosols

Satoshi Takahama, Nikunj Dudani, Imad El Haddad, Amir Yazdani

Particulate matter (PM) affects visibility, climate, and public health. Organic matter (OM), a uniquely complex portion of PM, can make up more than half of total atmospheric fine PM mass. We investigated the effect of aging on secondary organic aerosol (S ...

Quantifying organic matter and functional groups in particulate matter filter samples from the southeastern United States - Part 2: Spatiotemporal trends

Satoshi Takahama

Organic species within atmospheric particles vary widely in molecular structure. The variety of molecules that comprise the aerosol make it rich in information about its sources and chemical life cycle but also make particulate organic matter (OM) difficul ...

COPERNICUS GESELLSCHAFT MBH2021

Estimating mean molecular weight, carbon number, and OM∕OC with mid-infrared spectroscopy in organic particulate matter samples from a monitoring network

Satoshi Takahama, Amir Yazdani

Organic matter (OM) is a major constituent of fine particulate matter, which contributes significantly to degradation of visibility and radiative forcing, and causes adverse health effects. However, due to its sheer compositional complexity, OM is difficul ...

Molecular scale description of interfacial mass transfer in phase separated aqueous secondary organic aerosol

Athanasios Nenes, Satoshi Takahama, Mária Lbadaoui-Darvas

Liquid-liquid phase-separated (LLPS) aerosol particles are known to exhibit increased cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) activity compared to well-mixed ones due to a complex effect of low surface tension and non-ideal mixing. The relation between the two con ...

Temporal and spatial analysis of ozone concentrations in Europe based on timescale decomposition and a multi-clustering approach

Satoshi Takahama, Eirini Boleti, Christoph Hueglin

Air quality measures that were implemented in Europe in the 1990s resulted in reductions of ozone precursor concentrations. In this study, the effect of these reductions on ozone is investigated by analyzing surface measurements of this pollutant for the t ...

Water Activity from Equilibrium Molecular Dynamics Simulations and Kirkwood-Buff Theory

Satoshi Takahama, Mária Lbadaoui-Darvas

Water activity and related thermodynamic properties are calculated for several aqueous solutions using equilibrium molecular dynamics in conjunction with the recent extension of the Kirkwood-Buff (KB) theory for closed systems. The general applicability of ...

Trends of surface maximum ozone concentrations in Switzerland based on meteorological adjustment for the period 1990-2014

Satoshi Takahama, Eirini Boleti, Christoph Hueglin

We investigate the temporal trends of peak ozone in Switzerland for the 1990-2014 time period. The meteorological conditions have a large influence on ozone formation and drive a large part of the variability in ozone observations. Therefore, the influence ...

An open platform for Aerosol InfraRed Spectroscopy analysis - AIRSpec

Satoshi Takahama, Matteo Reggente, Rudolf Höhn

AIRSpec is a platform consisting of several chemometric packages developed for analysis of Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra of atmospheric aerosols. The packages are accessible through a browser-based interface, which also generates the necessary ...
