Occupational exposure to carbon black in its manufacture.
Carbon black is manufactured by the vapour phase pyrolysis of heavy aromatic hydrocarbon feedstocks. Its manufacture is worldwide and the majority of its production is for use in the rubber industry especially tyre manufacture. Its carbonaceous nature has led many to investigate the occurrence of exposure-related medical conditions. To quantify any such relationships, it is necessary to assess ...
متن کاملAn Analysis of Bicycle Route Choice Preferences Using a Web-Based Survey to Examine Bicycle Facilities
In the U.S., the rise in motorized vehicle travel has contributed to serious societal, environmental, economic, and public health problems. These problems have increased the interest in encouraging non-motorized modes of travel (walking and bicycling). The current study contributes toward this objective by identifying and evaluating the importance of attributes influencing bicyclists’ route cho...
متن کاملPnm-19: Residential Exposure to Carbon Monoxide and Spontaneous Abortion
Background: The relationship between air pollution exposure and adverse birth outcomes such as low birth weight and IUGR was studied. However, very few studies evaluated the effect of air pollution emissions on spontaneous abortion. We examined association between spontaneous abortion of the first trimester of pregnancy and ambient concentrations of carbon monoxide in Tehran. Materials and Meth...
متن کاملOrganometallic precursor route to carbon nanotubes*
Multi-walled as well as single-walled carbon nanotubes are conveniently prepared by the pyrolysis of organometallic precursors, such as metallocenes and phthalocyanines, in a reducing atmosphere. Pyrolysis of organometallics alone or in mixture with hydrocarbons also yields aligned nanotube bundles with useful field emission properties. By pyrolyzing organometallics in the presence of thiophene...
متن کاملImplementation and validation of a modeling framework to assess personal exposure to black carbon.
Because people tend to move from one place to another during the day, their exposure to air pollution will be determined by the concentration at each location combined with the exposure encountered in transport. In order to estimate the exposure of individuals in a population more accurately, the activity-based modeling framework for Black Carbon exposure assessment, AB(2)C, was developed. An a...
