Indoor particulate concentration during biomass burning in central India
Indoor air particulate (PM) exposure is several folds more dangerous than outdoor air owing to burning of different materials. Burning biomass emits toxic fumes that are found to be associated with numerous health problems such as respiratory diseases, etc. In our study area, approximately 80% of the population of Chhattisgarh state, central India use biomass such as wood, and cow dung as...

متن کاملCHARACTERISTICS OF PAHs EMITTED FROM INCENSE, CANDLES AND MOSQUITO COILS BURNING
Burning of candles, incense and mosquito coils in indoor environment can release a large number of toxic chemicals. This paper reviews available literature data concerning the nature of these products and their burning characteristics, with particular reference to the PAHs emissions. It has been evidenced that PAHs emission factors show large differences among the investigated materials, even f...
متن کاملDetermination of particulate-bound formaldehyde from burning incense by solid phase microextraction.
This work studied the feasibility of using a solid phase microextraction (SPME) fiber for sampling and analysis of gaseous formaldehyde as well as particulate-bound formaldehyde from burning Chinese incense. The SPME fiber with PDMS/DVB coating were partially coated with o-(2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzyl)-hydroxylamine hydrochloride (PFBHA), and used for sampling formaldehyde. The sampling rate fo...
متن کاملParticulate Matter Investigation in Indoor Environment
Particulate matter is one of the most important indoor air pollutants involved in a number of adverse health effects, such as premature deaths and increased mortality of infants and other parts of sensitive population. This paper focuses on investigation of metal substances of suspended as well as settled particulate matter in indoor environment. The monitoring of particulate matter concentrati...
