Emission characteristics of nonmethane hydrocarbons from private cars and taxis at different driving speeds in Hong Kong [PDF]
Vehicular emissions are the major sources of a number of air pollutants including nonmethane hydrocarbons (NMHCs) in urban area. The emission composition and emission factors of NMHCs from vehicles are currently lacking in Hong Kong.

ABSTRACT Biomass energy plays a critical role in alleviating environmental pressures. However, its relatively high content of alkali metals (especially for potassium) would cause ash‐related issues during combustion. To mitigate these issues, the potassium migration behaviors during chestnut shell (CS) conversion and the modification mechanisms of ...

Biodegradation of Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon from Al-Daura Refinery Wastewater by Rhizobacteria
Due to the deliberate disposal of industrial waste, a great amount of petroleum hydrocarbons pollute the soil and aquatic environments. Bioremediation that depends on the microorganisms in the removal of pollutants is more efficient and cost-effective ...

ABSTRACT Excessive water production in mature oil fields necessitates robust shut‐off treatments, yet conventional polymer gels often fail under high‐temperature and high‐salinity conditions. This study aims to enhance gel thermal stability and mechanical strength by incorporating selenium‐doped Ag/AgO–ZnO nanocomposites synthesized via a novel green ...

Investigation of total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) and index metals (Ni & V) on Gammarus’s tissue (Pontogammarus maeoticus) and coastal sediments of the Caspian Sea ; Guilan Province [PDF]
The southern part of the Caspian Sea is one of the most important habitats for Gammarus (Pontogammarus maeoticus) species. These areas are surfing under the influence of persistent pollutants such as heavy metals, petroleum hydrocarbons and their ...

Reclamation and reuse of freon in total petroleum hydrocarbon analyses [PDF]
ADS is using a commercially available solvent reclamation system to recycle 95-97 percent of the Freon used in total petroleum hydrocarbon analyses. ADS has further developed the commercially available solvent reclamation system to accommodate radioactive contaminated Freon.
