Carbonaceous particles in the atmosphere consist of two major components — graphitic or black carbon and organic material. The organic component can either be directly emitted from sources (primary organics) or be produced by atmospheric reactions from gaseous precursors (secondary organics). We define soot as the total primary carbonaceous material, i.

A sustainable business ecosystem: a case study demonstrating biochar's potential
Abstract The need for renewable, climate‐friendly resources has become urgent as legislators worldwide have sought to find ways to cut emissions while ensuring resource security for consumers. The use of biochar could help to achieve these goals. This study examines the current state of commercial biochar production and the maturity of the related ...

First Steps towards a Super-Compact In-Situ Laser-Induced-Incandescence Sensor System
To realize an actual in-situ Laser-Induced Incandescence (LII) sensor system for measurements in an exhaust pipe of a combustion engine, suitable components for such an application were chosen, integrated in a first prototype and tested.

Studying the Bulk and Contour Ice Nucleation of Water Droplets via Quartz Crystal Microbalances
Due to the stochastic and time-dependent character of the ice embryo formation and growth (i.e., a process that can be analyzed statistically, but cannot be predicted precisely), the heterogeneous ice nucleation on atmospheric aerosols or macroscopic ...

Abstract Biomass gasification technology has been extensively researched around the world; however, there is a need to evaluate the current research landscape and evolutionary direction of research in the broader context of energy transition. A systematic bibliometric analysis of the Web of Science database was performed for articles that fall within ...

Effect of Pore Structure on Soot Deposition in Diesel Particulate Filter
Nowadays, in the after-treatment of diesel exhaust gas, a diesel particulate filter (DPF) has been used to trap nano-particles of the diesel soot. However, as there are more particles inside the filter, the pressure which corresponds to the filter ...

AIR POLLUTION IN KRAKOW – A GLANCE INTO THE FUTURE FROM A HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE [PDF]
High concentrations of air pollution probably occurred in Krakow in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Since the late 1960s due to the development of monitoring networks level of air pollution is well documented.
