Science, 1919 AbstractThis chapter examines atmospheric pollution legislation from a comparative perspective. It begins with a discussion of the definition and legal boundaries relevant to atmospheric pollution, citing a few events which raised the attention on air pollution issues in different national jurisdictions.

Rapid adsorption of benzotriazole onto oxidized carbon cloth as an easily separable adsorbent
Scientific Reports, 2023 A commercial carbon cloth (CC) was oxidized by HNO3 acid and the features of the plain and oxidized CC were evaluated. The results of characterization illustrated that HNO3 oxidization duplicated the oxygen-containing functional groups and the surface ...

Traffic-related air pollution and obesity formation in children: a longitudinal, multilevel analysis. [PDF]
, 2014 BackgroundBiologically plausible mechanisms link traffic-related air pollution to metabolic disorders and potentially to obesity. Here we sought to determine whether traffic density and traffic-related air pollution were positively associated with growth
