Temporal evolution of nanoparticle aerosols in workplace exposure.
The evolution in time of a nanoparticle (NP) aerosol released into a simulated workplace environment was investigated for different starting scenarios including (i) NP release into a particle-free atmosphere and (ii) release in presence of a pre-existing background aerosol. In each case, particle number distributions and total number concentrations in a 2 m(3) aerosol chamber were monitored ove...
متن کاملAssessing the Dynamics of Organic Aerosols over the North Atlantic Ocean
The influence of aerosols on climate is highly dependent on the particle size distribution, concentration, and composition. In particular, the latter influences their ability to act as cloud condensation nuclei, whereby they impact cloud coverage and precipitation. Here, we simultaneously measured the concentration of aerosols from sea spray over the North Atlantic on board the exhaust-free sol...
متن کاملEffect of Particle Size Distribution and Chemical Composition on Properties of Magnesia Chromite Bricks
The present study was undertaken to improve the quality and increase the life time of magnesia-chromite refractory bricks used in the copper and lead industries. The results show that a decrease in the amount of large chromite particles in the formulation improves the thermomechanical properties and also reduces the slag penetration in the bricks. In addition it was also observed that the use o...
متن کاملThe Effect of In Vitro Dissolution System Parameters for Measuring the Solubility of Uranium Aerosols
The use of in vitro dissolution tests for estimating the in vivo solubility of inhaled radioactive aerosols is being increasingly considered for both prospective and retrospective exposure/dose assessments, mainly because such tests are relatively simple to conduct (compared to in vivo experiments) and because current respiratory tract dosimetry models (e.g., ICRP Publication 66, 1994) provide ...
متن کاملParticle growth and inferred mass accommodation coefficients for nitrate uptake on sulfate particles in an urban port region
Particles produced by ships and other port-related emission sources near coastal communities contribute significantly to human health and climate forcing. Heterogeneous reactions on particle surfaces including uptake of inorganic acids can alter the chemical and physical properties of aerosols and thus their effects on health and climate. Particle sulfate and ammonium content are thought to con...
