Choi, Min Su (2020-06-09)The impact of chlorine chemistry on the formation of secondary organic aerosol (SOA) during a severe wintertime air pollution episode is investigated in this study. The Community Multiscale Air Quality (CMAQ) model v5.0.1 ...
-
Vellanki, Bhanu Prakash (2012-10-19)A new class of treatment processes called Advanced Reduction Processes (ARP) has been proposed. The ARPs combine activation methods and reducing agents to form highly reactive reducing radicals that degrade oxidized ...
-
Baticados, El Jirie Navarra (2023-08-07)Using the Federal Reference Method (FRM) air sampling protocol, the total suspended particulates (TSP), PM10 and PM2.5 levels across four low-dust harvesters were found to be 40% to 70% lower compared to that of a conventional ...
-
Wang, Yuan (2013-07-30)The studies in this dissertation aim at advancing our scientific understandings about physical processes involved in the aerosol-cloud-precipitation interaction and quantitatively assessing the impacts of aerosols ...
-
Chen, Yuan (2017-04-27)China has been suffering from increasingly higher ozone pollution in the past decade because of rapid economic growth and industrial development. Ozone formation is affected by the nitrogen oxides (NOx) and various volatile ...
-
Mahish, Manasi (2017-06-27)Particle size and size resolved hygroscopicity distributions measured at the ARM SGP site from 2009 to 2012 were used to study new particle formation (NPF) and subsequent growth, variation in hygroscopicity and mixing state ...
-
Kaushik, Vishakha (2016-05-06)The effectiveness and feasibility of Advanced Reduction Process on arsenic has been studied. Advanced Reduction Process generates highly reducing radicals using a combination of a reducing reagent and UV light. These highly ...
-
Pan, Bowen (2015-09-18)Recent studies show that Saharan dust can exert substantial radiative and microphysical effects on the weather and regional climate. Moreover, the potential impacts of Saharan dust on the genesis and intensification of ...
-
Atmospheric Measurements of Submicron Aerosols at the California-Mexico Border and in Houston, Texas Levy, Misti E (2013-04-29)Using an innovative arrangement of instruments to obtain a comprehensive set of properties, we present a description of the submicron aerosol properties for two distinct regions. During the 2009 SHARP/SOOT campaign in ...
-
Deng, Chunhua (2013-12-12)This study is focused on the chemical composition and cloud nucleation ability of marine aerosol based on two cruise researches over Pacific Ocean and North Atlantic Ocean respectively. Implications of CLAW hypothesis and ...
-
Botlaguduru, Venkata Sai V. (2010-07-14)Emission factors (EFs) and results from dispersion models are key components in the air pollution regulatory process. The EPA preferred regulatory model changed from ISCST3 to AERMOD in November, 2007. Emission factors are ...
-
Tang, Yingjie (2012-07-16)In this work, various aerosol particle transport and deposition mechanisms were studied through the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling, including inertial impaction, gravitational effect, lift force, interception, ...
-
Luo, Guofan (2014-08-05)Selenocyanate (SeCN^(-)) is a common form of selenium contamination in refinery and mining wastewater generated from processing oil or minerals from seleniferous formations such as marine shales. Humans who drink water ...
-
Liu, Xu (2013-07-27)A new treatment technology, called Advanced Reduction Process (ARP), was developed by combining UV irradiation with reducing reagents to produce highly reactive species that degrade contaminants rapidly. Vinyl chloride ...
-
Hassan, Hala Abdelrahman Medani (2015-04-20)A major source of airborne pollution in the arid Middle East countries is the fugitive particulate matter (PM), a frequent product of wind erosion. The meteorological conditions and topography of this region makes it highly ...
-
Roy, Samarpita (2014-08-12)Biofuels are increasingly gaining importance as an energy source. The MixAlco® process is a biomass-to-energy technology that uses mixed cultures of microorganisms to convert biomass to mixed carboxylic acids. Using a ...
-
Morrison, Taylor 1986- (2012-08-30)Process variables of electrolytic technology to reduce the energy consumption of harvesting Nonnocloropsis salina were investigated including electro-coagulation, electro-floatation, and electro-flocculation. Electro-coagulation ...
