(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2006)This paper first reviews the mechanisms governing movement of PMs in HVAC systems. Then, the basic equations governing PM deposition in ducts are introduced and investigations on airborne PMs distribution in HVAC systems ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2004-11-15)Engineering directly impacts current and future regulatory policy decisions. The foundation of air pollution control and air pollution dispersion modeling lies in the math, chemistry, and physics of the environment. ...
-
(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 ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2006-08-16)Cyclone separators are widely used in agricultural processing industries as air pollution abatement devices. The performance of cyclones is a function of the geometry of the cyclone, operating parameters, and the particle ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2006-04-12)An engineering analysis of the fugitive particulate matter emissions from a feedyard is not simple. The presence of an evening dust peak in concentration measurements downwind of a feedyard complicates the calculation of ...
-
(2016-07-20)The Mississippi River drains more than 3 million km2 of the North American continent and discharges 240 million metric tons of sediment and 1.35 million metric tons of nutrients annually into the Gulf of Mexico. This ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2006)Ambient particulate matter (PM) is a complex mixture of sizes and types of particles. Exposure to airborne particulate matter adversely affects human health. In this paper, sources of particles are summarized, and ...
-
(2014-08-06)The Mississippi-Atchafalaya river system discharges into the northern Gulf of Mexico and peaks during the spring freshet bringing high levels of nutrients that spur eutrophication in surface waters, often resulting in ...
-
(2012-07-16)Ozone (O3) and particulate matter (PM) existing in the atmosphere have adverse effects to human and environment. Southeast Texas experiences high O3 and PM events due to special meteorological conditions and high emission ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2005-08-29)To design a cyclone abatement system for particulate control, it is necessary to accurately estimate cyclone performance. In this cyclone study, new theoretical methods for computing travel distance, numbers of turns and ...
-
(2022-06-27)Air pollution, including gases, metals, and airborne particles (particulates) can pose a significant risk to public health, and collectively cause many different types of toxicity. Over recent years, toxicology research ...
