Residual Tobacco Smoke in Used Cars: Futile Efforts and Persistent Pollutants
Nicotine & Tobacco Research, 2010Smoking cigarettes in the enclosed environment of a car leads to the contamination of a car's microenvironment with residual tobacco smoke pollution (TSP).Surface wipe, air, and dust samples were collected in used cars sold by nonsmokers (n = 40) and smokers (n = 87) and analyzed for nicotine. Primary drivers were interviewed about smoking behavior and

Abstract Inhaling the smoke from cigarettes, pipes, and cigars delivers nicotine to the brain more quickly and efficently than chewing tobacco leaf (Chapter l}. However, the practice of burning tobacco leaves indoors ex-poses other people to indoor air pollution from tobacco combustion products containing many chemicals known to be ...

The Contribution of Environmental Tobacco Smoke to Indoor Pollution in Pubs and Bars
Indoor and Built Environment, 2005Smoking is currently allowed in most UK pubs and bars and smoking policies are self regulated by the hospitality industry through the Public Places Charter, which encourages the provision of non-smoking areas and improved ventilation. In this study monitoring of environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) has been conducted in 60 pubs and bars in the Greater ...

[Prevention of air pollution by indoor tobacco smoke in France].
Revue medicale suisse, 2006A majority of smokers and non-smokers mind tobacco smoke. Passive smoking causes death by sudden infant death, lung cancer and coronary heart disease. 3000 to 6000 persons are killed every year in France. The lack of implementation of the Evin's law published in 1991 explains why non-smokers are not given the protection they can expect.

Efficient Purification of Multiple Pollutants of Tobacco Smoke via Photocatalytic Oxidation Purifier
Environmental Science & TechnologyTobacco smoke, a complex mixture of particulate matter (PM) and gaseous pollutants, poses serious health risks and remains a significant challenge for indoor air purification. Photocatalytic oxidation (PCO) technology has emerged as an effective strategy for pollutant removal, but its application in real tobacco smoke purification and associated health
