Coal Combustion and Combustion Products

Health effects of residential wood smoke particles : the importance of combustion conditions and physicochemical particle properties Anette

Background: Residential wood combustion is now recognized as a major particle source in many developed countries, and the number of studies investigating the negative health effects associated with wood smoke exposure is currently increasing. The combustion appliances in use today provide highly variable combustion conditions resulting in large variations in the physicochemical characteristics ...

Mercury from Coal Combustion

A 1997 study in Minnesota indicated a relationship between mercury deposition trends and regional coal combustion (as well as other possible sources) spanning a period of two centuries (Engstrom and Swain 1997). Sediment core sampling from rural lakes in eastern Minnesota indicated a growth in mercury deposited from the air since the first half of the 1800s, with the amount peaking in the 1960s...
