Cooking Up Indoor Air Pollution: Emissions from Natural Gas Stoves

Cooking Up Indoor Air Pollution Emissions from Natural Gas Stoves Natural gas cooking appliances, which are used by a third of U.S. households, can contribute to poor indoor air quality, especially when used without an exhaust hood. Gas stoves emit nitrogen dioxide (NO2), carbon monoxide (CO), and formaldehyde (HCHO), each of which can exacerbate various respiratory and other health ailments. I...

Environmental pollution from pharmaceutical manufacturing

High levels of pharmaceuticals, including fluoroquinolones (FQs), have been detected in the effluent from an Indian waste water treatment plant serving bulk drug production intended for the global market. Responses from short-term effluent exposure were studied in fish and rats through explorative analyses of hepatic mRNA abundance, enzyme activities and blood chemistry parameters. Exposure of ...

Medical Waste Incinerator Emissions and Air Pollution Control

Air pollution from a large steel factory: polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon emissions from coke-oven batteries.

A systematic investigation of solid and gaseous atmospheric emissions from some coke-oven batteries of one of Europe's largest integrated steel factory (Taranto, Italy) has been carried out. In air monitoring samples, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were consistently detected at concentrations largely exceeding threshold limit values. By means of PAHs speciation profile and benzo(a)pyre...
