A global model of natural volatile organic compound emissions

Numerical assessments of global air quality and potential changes in atmospheric chemical constituents require estimates of the surface fluxes of a variety of trace gas species. We have developed a global model to estimate emissions of volatile organic compounds from natural sources (NVOC). Methane is not considered here and has been reviewed in detail elsewhere. The model has a highly resolved...

assessing emissions of volatile organic componds from landfills gas

abstract background: biogas is obtained by anaerobic decomposition of organic wastes buried materials used to produce electricity, heat and biofuels. biogas is at the second place for power generation after hydropower and in 2000 about 6% of the world power generation was allocated to biogas. biogas is composed of 40–45 vol% co2, 55–65 vol% ch4, and about 1% non-methanevocs, and non-methane vol...

Biofiltration of Volatile Pollutants: Solubility Effects

This project investigates and collects fundamental partitioning data for a variety of sparingly soluble subsurface contaminants (e.g., TCE, etc.) between vapor, aqueous phase, and matrices containing substantial quantities of biomass and biomass components. Due to the difficulty of obtaining these measurements, environmental models have generally used solubility constants of chemicals in pure w...
