Lead isotope composition and host phases in airborne particulate matter from Budapest, Hungary [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Lead is a frequent potentially toxic pollutant of the urban environment. Its risk assessment in the airborne particulate matter requires data both on its speciation and potential sources.

Quantification of Particulate Emissions from Broiler Houses in the Southeastern United States [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Emissions of total suspended particulate (TSP), particulate matter with aerodynamic diameters = 10 µm (PM10), and = 2.5 µm (PM2.5) were continuously monitored at two mechanically ventilated broiler houses in the southeastern United States. Monitoring was

Characteristic of total suspended particulate (TSP) containing Pb and Zn at solid waste landfill

open access: yesJournal of Physics: Conference Series, 2018
Activities conducted at municipal solid waste landfills (MSWLs) potentially cause air pollution. Heavy vehicles in MSWLs release various pollutants that can have negative impacts for humans. One noticeable pollutant at MSWLs is airborne total suspended particulate (TSP) which may contain heavy metals such as Pb and Zn and can cause disease when inhaled

Comparative Cytotoxicity Study of PM2.5 and TSP Collected from Urban Areas

open access: yesToxics, 2021
Ambient particulate matter 2.5 (PM2.5) and total suspended particles (TSPs) are common airborne pollutants that cause respiratory and cardiovascular diseases. We investigated the differences of cytotoxicity and mechanism between PM2.5 and TSP activity in

Sources Causing Long-Term and Seasonal Changes in Combustion-Derived Particulate Matter in the Urban Air of Sapporo, Japan, from 1990 to 2002

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2023
Fifty-one samples were collected seasonally to estimate the amounts of total suspended particulate (TSP) in Sapporo, Japan, from 1990 to 2002. The atmospheric concentration of combustion-derived particulate (Pc) was calculated based on the NP method ...

Correction of Light Scattering-Based Total Suspended Particulate Measurements through Machine Learning

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2020
Instruments based on light scattering used to measure total suspended particulate (TSP) concentrations have the advantages of fast response, small size, and low cost compared to the gravimetric reference method.

Concentration versus number of particles in the assessment of air pollution with particulate matters

open access: yesRomanian Journal of Ecology & Environmental Chemistry, 2022
In this paper, an assessment study was performed regarding air pollution with particulate matters including submicron particles. The evaluation of the contamination level was performed at a textile production unit in Pascani, Romania, which produces ...

Total Suspended Particle Emissions Modelling in an Industrial Boiler

open access: yesEnergies, 2018
Particulate matter emission into the atmosphere is a massive-scale problem. Fossil fuel combustion is an important source of this kind of pollution. The knowledge of total suspended particle (TSP) emissions is the first step for TSP control.
