Mapping Air Pollution eMissions (MAPM)

2020
<p>The growth of megacities from global urbanization has degraded urban air quality sufficient to impede economic growth and create a public health hazard. Emissions of particulate matter, photochemically reactive gases, and long-lived greenhouse gases, contribute to the urban environmental footprint with concomitant economic and

The influence of local emissions and regional air pollution transport on a European air pollution hot spot

Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2018
The EU air quality standards have been frequently exceeded in one of the European air pollution hot spots: Ostrava. The aim of this study was to perform an air quality comparison between an urban site (Radvanice), which has a nearby metallurgical complex, and a suburban site (Plesná) to estimate air pollution sources and determine their local and/or ...

Emissions of Air Pollutants and Emission Control Technologies

2019
Air pollution is due to emissions of pollutants in the atmosphere, which may be natural or of human origin. Thus, in order to understand air pollution, it is necessary to identify, characterize, and quantify those emissions. Furthermore, reducing air pollution requires either eliminating some of those emissions via a change in a product, process, or ...

Projection of hazardous air pollutant emissions to future years

Science of The Total Environment, 2006
Projecting a hazardous air pollutant (HAP) emission inventory to future years can provide valuable information for air quality management activities such as prediction of program successes and helping to assess future priorities. We have projected the 1999 National Emission Inventory for HAPs to numerous future years up to 2020 using the following ...

PANDORA database: A compilation of indoor air pollutant emissions

HVAC&R Research, 2011
Modeling indoor air quality (IAQ) in real buildings still remains difficult because of the limited data regarding the pollutant outdoor concentrations and indoor sources. The characterization of indoor sources is currently problematic, as most of studies have focused solely on measuring indoor concentration levels instead of determining the source ...

Legislation on emissions of air pollutants and their monitoring

1998
This book is concerned with the monitoring of the emissions of air pollutants into the atmosphere from industrial processes. The reason why this topic has become such an important one in many countries is that there is an increasing weight of legislation requiring operators to provide information about gaseous and particulate substances which are ...

The synergic impacts of air pollution control policies on pollutants and carbon emissions

Journal of Environmental Management
The Chinese government implemented air pollution control policies in its Five-Year Plans (FYPs), setting specific emission reduction targets for different regions. This study employed the generalized difference-in-differences (GDD) method to assess the impacts of air pollution control policies on pollutants and carbon emissions from 2003 to 2020.

Air Pollution Emissions Inventory Systems

1982
Many activities within an air quality management system require the use and assessment of various types of air pollution data. Data on air pollutant emissions and air quality are the most important of these data types. An emissions inventory system supports pollution assessment activities by collecting, screening, storing, and presenting emissions data

Air Pollutant Emissions from Kerosene Space Heaters

Science, 1982
Air pollutant emissions from portable convective and radiant kerosene space heaters were measured in an environmental chamber. Emission factors for nitrogen oxides, sulfur dioxide, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and oxygen depletion are presented. The data suggest that the use of such heaters in residences can result in exposures to air pollutants in
