Single atom modified two-dimensional bismuthenes for toxic gas detection.

Physical Chemistry, Chemical Physics - PCCP, 2023
Accurate detection of toxic gases at low concentrations is often difficult because they are colorless, odorless, flammable and denser than air. Therefore, it is urgent to develop highly stable and sensitive toxic gas detectors.

Emergency evacuation risk assessment and mitigation strategy for a toxic gas leak in an underground space: The case of a subway station in Guangzhou, China

, 2021
In emergency system design, evacuating people from dangerous buildings has always been a significant yet challenging undertaking. This paper combines evacuation demand analysis with a toxic gas dispersion process to create an underground space risk ...

Selective and sensitive toxic gas-sensing mechanism in a 2D Janus MoSSe monolayer.

Physical Chemistry, Chemical Physics - PCCP, 2022
With an inspiration of sensing toxic gases, this study is aimed at exploring the potential of a Janus MoSSe monolayer as a gas sensor. Here, we focused on the adsorption mechanism after the exposure to NH3, NO2, NO, HCN, CO2, CO, H2, H2S and SO2 on both ...

Reevaluating tear gas toxicity and safety

Inhalation Toxicology, 2021
Tear gases, or chemical demonstration control agents (DCA), were originally created as weapons that could severely disable or kill enemy troops. Though banned in war, these chemicals are still used in domestic policing. Here we review the available scientific literature on tear gas, summarizing findings from animal and environmental studies as well ...

Toxic Gas, Lifesaver

Scientific American, 2010
The article discusses hydrogen sulfide (H2S) which is a lethal gas that emits a smell like rotten eggs. The focus of the article is increasing evidence that H2S, which the human body produces in small quantities, may play a beneficial role in the health of the cardiovascular system.

Ab Initio Study of the Graphyne-like γ-SiC Nanoflake for Toxic Gas-Sensing Applications.

Langmuir
This study focuses on the geometrical, electronic, and optical properties of the γ-graphyne-like novel γ-SiC nanoflake of the γ-silicon carbide (SiC) monolayer using density functional theory calculations. γ-SiC was revealed to be a stable semiconducting

Toxic Gas Inhalation

Clinical Pulmonary Medicine, 1994
Severe toxic fume inhalations, usually accidental due to human error or equipment failure, can result in immediate death from asphyxia or cause mild to severe respiratory distress from acute upper airways inflammation, delayed pulmonary edema, respiratory muscle dysfunction, or a combination of illnesses.
