Exposure to benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene (BTEX) at Nigeria's petrol stations: a review of current status, challenges and future directions

Frontiers in Public Health
Introduction In Nigeria, because of increasing population, urbanization, industrialization, and auto-mobilization, petrol is the most everyday non-edible commodity, and it is the leading petroleum product traded at the proliferating Nigeria's petrol ...

Boric Acid Post‐Modified [Al]ZSM‐5 Zeolites: Properties, Acidity, and Ethanol/Ethene Conversion

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
The modification of MFI zeolites with boric acid leads to the formation of framework boron, unstable surface species, and unbound deposits. Relevant BAS for catalysis and access to pores are strongly reduced. The boric acid is removed upon converting C1 or C2 alcohols and ethene. ABSTRACT The effect of boric acid post‐modification on [Al]ZSM‐5 zeolites

Assessing the distribution of volatile organic compounds using land use regression in Sarnia, "Chemical Valley", Ontario, Canada [PDF]

, 2009
Background Land use regression (LUR) modelling is proposed as a promising approach to meet some of the challenges of assessing the intra-urban spatial variability of ambient air pollutants in urban and industrial settings. However, most of the LUR models

A sustainable approach to combat industrial air pollution using commercially available and engineered gas-phase adsorbents

Atmospheric Environment: X
The occurrence of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene (BTEX) in the environment has human health and ecological consequences; hence, it is essential to remediate the gas-phase industrial plume before its release.

Performance assessment of a potential underground thermal storage facility: Case study of the closed mine Prosper‐Haniel in the Ruhr coal mining area in Germany

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates the feasibility of an underground closed‐loop thermal storage facility at a post‐mining site, intended for seasonal heat energy storage. Its principal design shows water flow directions in winter and summer (1, 2), heat pumps (3), an upper water reservoir (4), and connecting pipes (5).

Effect of Ethanol on Microbial Community Structure and Function During Natural Attenuation of Benzene, Toluene, and \u3cem\u3eo\u3c/em\u3e-Xylene in a Sulfate-reducing Aquifer [PDF]

, 2008
Ethanol (EtOH) is a commonly used fuel oxygenate in reformulated gasoline and is an alternative fuel and fuel supplement. Effects of EtOH release on aquifer microbial ecology and geochemistry have not been well characterized in situ.
