Mercury Emissions from Motor Vehicles
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency initiated a pilot program in 2002 with researchers at the University of Michigan Air Quality Laboratory to investigate motor vehicle mercury emissions. The program included exhaust emissions characterization of vapor and particulate phase mercury from three light-duty gasoline vehicles, one diesel vehicle and mercury analysis of fuel, lubricating oil, en...
متن کاملMercury emissions from biomass burning in China.
Biomass burning covers open fires (forest and grassland fires, crop residue burning in fields, etc.) and biofuel combustion (crop residues and wood, etc., used as fuel). As a large agricultural country, China may produce large quantities of mercury emissions from biomass burning. A new mercury emission inventory in China is needed because previous studies reflected outdated biomass burning with...
متن کاملChronic mercury exposure in Late Neolithic/Chalcolithic populations in Portugal from the cultural use of cinnabar
Cinnabar is a natural mercury sulfide (HgS) mineral of volcanic or hydrothermal origin that is found worldwide. It has been mined prehistorically and historically in China, Japan, Europe, and the Americas to extract metallic mercury (Hg(0)) for use in metallurgy, as a medicinal, a preservative, and as a red pigment for body paint and ceramics. Processing cinnabar via combustion releases Hg(0) v...
متن کاملMeasuring mercury.
In the process of establishing more and more complete annotations of eukaryotic genomes, a constantly growing number of alternative splicing (AS) events has been reported over the last decade. Consequently, the increasing transcript coverage also revealed the real complexity of some variations in the exon–intron structure between transcript variants and the need for computational tools to addre...
متن کاملMercury emission and dispersion models from soils contaminated by cinnabar mining and metallurgy.
The laboratory flux measurement system (LFMS) and dispersion models were used to investigate the kinetics of mercury emission flux (MEF) from contaminated soils. Representative soil samples with respect to total Hg concentration (26-9770 μg g(-1)) surrounding a decommissioned mercury-mining area (Las Cuevas Mine), and a former mercury smelter (Cerco Metalúrgico de Almadenejos), in the Almadén m...
