Electrospun Nanofibre Air Filters for Particles and Gaseous Pollutants

Absorption of Gaseous Air Pollutants By a Standardized Plant Canopy

Mass and ionic composition of atmospheric fine particles over Belgium and their relation with gaseous air pollutants.

Mass, major ionic components (MICs) of PM2.5, and related gaseous pollutants (SO2, NO(x), NH3, HNO2, and HNO3) were monitored over six locations of different anthropogenic influence (industrial, urban, suburban, and rural) in Belgium. SO4(2-), NO3-, NH4+, and Na+ were the primary ions of PM2.5 with averages diurnal concentrations ranging from 0.4-4.5, 0.3-7.6, 0.9-4.9, and 0.4-1.2 microg m(-3),...

Adsorption of Gaseous Pollutants

Criteria air pollutants and toxic air pollutants.

This review presents a brief overview of the health effects and exposures of two criteria pollutants--ozone and particulate matter--and two toxic air pollutants--benzene and formaldehyde. These pollutants were selected from the six criteria pollutants and from the 189 toxic air pollutants on the basis of their prevalence in the United States, their physicochemical behavior, and the magnitude of...

experimental investigations on electrospun mat production: for use in high-performance air filters

original article   electrospun nanofibrous filter media have attracted considerable attention in the last decade. the present study aimed to develop the electrospun pan (polyacrylonitrile) filter media through experimental investigations for application in high-performance air filters. for this purpose, an experimental design was proposed to assess the effect of electrospinning process conditio...
