Black carbon particulate matter emission factors for buoyancy-driven associated gas flares

Effect of Various Parameters on Emission Factors of Gas Flares

Particulate Matter Emission Factors for Biomass Combustion

Emission factor is a relative measure and can be used to estimate emissions from multiple sources of air pollution. For this reason, data from literature on particulate matter emission factors from different types of biomass were evaluated in this paper. Initially, the main sources of particles were described, as well as relevant concepts associated with particle measurements. In addition, arti...

Particulate Matter and Ammonia Emission Factors

Emissions rates for particulate matter less than 10 m (PM10) and ammonia (NH3) from commercial tunnel–ventilated broiler houses in central Texas were analyzed using linear regressions to develop emission rates as a function of bird weight for broilers on litter. Interior ambient temperature and relative humidity were not found to be significant factors affecting emissions. From the regression e...

Global anthropogenic emissions of particulate matter including black carbon

This paper presents a comprehensive assessment of historical (1990–2010) global anthropogenic particulate matter (PM) emissions including the consistent and harmonized calculation of mass-based size distribution (PM1, PM2.5, PM10), as well as primary carbonaceous aerosols including black carbon (BC) and organic carbon (OC). The estimates were developed with the integrated assessment model GAINS...

development of particulate matter and heavy metal emission factors for kerman copper industries

an emission factor is a tool that is used to estimate air pollutant emissions to the atmosphere. it relates the quantity of pollutants released from a source to some activities associated with those emissions. to determine the quantity of pollutant released from copper and its alloys smelting furnaces, 63 samples from emission gases were collected on cellulose ester membrane filters in three 8-...
