Chalcogenide-based chemical sensors for atmospheric pollution control*

The authors report about characterization of chalcogenide-based thin films, as a materials for gas-sensing applications. The sensing behavior of the As–S–Te films was tested with environmental pollutant gases such as NO2, CO, and SO2. A significant sensitivity has been observed for nitrogen dioxide. The detection range for NO2 was between 0.95–1.9 ppm in ambient air. The response and the recove...

Pollution Control and Suggested Disposal Guidelines for Chemical Laboratories

There is a long-standing question of whether or not clinical cheyietyy laboratories discharge harmful pollutants in cohsiderable amounts, and, if so, whether or not this pollution can be decreased. Lack of specific data and scarcity of publications characterize this prijblem. In view of the lack of data, we felt that there was a need for a properly managed bench-level “survey” of the pollutants...

Investment and emission control under technology and pollution externalities

This paper studies incentives to develop advanced pollution abatement technology when technology may spillover across agents and pollution abatement is a public good. We are motivated by a variety of pollution control issues where solutions require the development and implementation of new pollution abatement technologies. We show that at the Nash equilibrium of a simultaneous-move game with R&...
