The Photocatalytic Efficacy of Potassium Hydroxide–Based Modification of Titanium Dioxide in the Oxidative Destruction of Gaseous Formaldehyde

Small, EarlyView.
The photocatalytic oxidation of gaseous formaldehyde (FA) is explored using potassium hydroxide ‐modified titanium dioxide (TiO2), designated as KT‐x. Its superior performance is confirmed through dynamic clean air delivery rate and space‐time yield. The enhanced FA degradation over KT‐x is attributed to the synergistic effects of oxygen vacancies and ...

Analysis of PM2.5 Morphology, Composition and Health Risk in a Multi‐Chair Dental Clinic

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Particulate matter with aerodynamic diameter ≤ 2.5 μm (PM2.5) at high concentrations in dental clinics poses significant health risks to healthcare professionals. However, the morphology and chemical composition of PM2.5 in specific environments are not yet fully elucidated.

Pastures Green: Corporate Investments in Green Skills and Toxic Chemical Releases

British Journal of Management, EarlyView.
Abstract Firms face pressure to improve their environmental performance. However, in addition to making substantive investments that enhance environmental outcomes, firms may also engage in investments that are green but mostly symbolic and not effective in improving environmental performance.

Deep Inferential Spatial-Temporal Network for Forecasting Air Pollution Concentrations [PDF]

arXiv, 2018
Air pollution poses a serious threat to human health as well as economic development around the world. To meet the increasing demand for accurate predictions for air pollutions, we proposed a Deep Inferential Spatial-Temporal Network to deal with the complicated non-linear spatial and temporal correlations. We forecast three air pollutants (i.e., PM2.5,
