In a series of comprehensive studies, a wide range of air cleaning methods has been evaluated related to their effectiveness in removing radon decay products. Data show that while filtration and electrostatic precipitation were effective in reducing total potential alpha energy concentrations (PAECs), they caused a greater percentage of the radon decay products, subsequently formed, to be unatt...

Though water and land pollution is very dangerous, air pollution has its own peculiarities, due to its transboundary dispersion of pollutants over the entire world. Air pollution is one of the serious problems faced by the people globally, especially in urban areas of developing countries like India. All these in turn lead to an increase in the air pollution levels and have adverse effects on t...

This dispersion of infectious aerosols is moderated largely by air pollution. The possible role O 3 on the SARS-CoV-2 emphasized.

Heavy metal pollution dispersion simulation in rivers and predicting spatial and temporal variations of pollutants can be used to determine the precise place and to schedule water withdrawal time for drinking, agriculture, aquaculture and ecosystem studies. To study the movement of heavy metal pollution through Karoon flow model, MIKE 11 was employed fpr simulation of the flow model of Karoon R...

This paper examines the utility of the air pollution Model (TAPM) in simulating meteorology and dispersion of PM10 and wind data in order to assess The Impacts of Wind Variability Function on Urban Heat Island for the day of 25, November, 2012 in Karaj city that experienced severe degradation in air quality. Drawing, Skew-T diagrams, maps of surface pressure (500hp), omega (850hp) and atmosp...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Asthma is one of the most common respiratory diseases in the world. Research has shown that temporal increases in air pollution concentrations can aggravate asthma symptoms. The aim of this study was to assess whether individuals living in areas with higher air pollution concentrations responded differently to short-term temporal exposure to air pollution than those living i...

indoor environment. The most important include indoor pollutants, outdoor pollutants near the building, pollution transport through the ventilation system, air cleaning or filtration, and indoor climate (temperature and relative humidity). Many building materials, the furnishings and equipment, and the occupants and their activities are sources of indoor pollution. Following is a list of some o...

BACKGROUND The literature on traffic-related air pollution and childhood cancers is inconclusive, and little is known on rarer cancer types. OBJECTIVES We sought to examine associations between childhood cancers and traffic-related pollution exposure. METHODS The present study included children < 6 years of age identified in the California Cancer Registry (born 1998-2007) who could be linke...
