ABSTRACT Background Classified as carcinogenic to humans by the International Agency for Research on Cancer, aluminum production has been transitioning towards lower polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon‐emitting prebake smelters. This study explored the risk of cancer and mortality over 20 years follow‐up among a cohort of aluminum prebake smelter workers ...

P-resonant control for the neutral point of three phase inverter [PDF]
In this project, a Proportional resonant (PR) current controller is proposed to maintain a balanced neutral point for a three-phase four wire inverter, which can be used in microgrid applications. The neutral-point circuit consists of a conventional

Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Corn Grains
Contamination of crop plants with organic pollutants raises a growing interest in recent years; among the investigated pollutants, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are of special concern because some of them are toxic and carcinogenic.
