3. Applicable Pollutants: Submicron Particulate Matter (PM) greater than or equal to 0.3 micrometer (μm) in aerodynamic diameter, and PM greater than or equal to 0.12 μm in aerodynamic diameter that is chemically, biologically, or radioactively toxic; hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) that are in particulate form, such as most metals (mercury is the notable exception, as a significant portion of ...

Adsorption efficiency of functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotube in sampling trichloroethylene in air

Introduction: Trichloroethylene (TCE) is an industrial solvent which is often used as a degreaser for metal parts. Due to adverse health effects and carcinogenic properties of this solvent, knowing its concentration in the workplace atmosphere is really crucial. Nowadays, carbon nanotubes with high efficiency are being used for sampling of this chemical. Method:</stron...

Indoor Air Chemistry: Cleaning Agents, Ozone and Toxic Air Contaminants

Adsorption air cleaning from ozone.

Not much has been written about air cleaning from ozone. The aim of this paper was to demonstrate the possibility of adsorption air cleaning from ozone. The second aim was to investigate the dependence of the efficiency of ozone removal from the air on the height of the adsorber layer and on concentrations of ozone, and to obtain empirical formulas for calculating the efficiency of ozone treatm...

Transparent air filter for high-efficiency PM2.5 capture.

Particulate matter (PM) pollution has raised serious concerns for public health. Although outdoor individual protection could be achieved by facial masks, indoor air usually relies on expensive and energy-intensive air-filtering devices. Here, we introduce a transparent air filter for indoor air protection through windows that uses natural passive ventilation to effectively protect the indoor a...
