This book was released on 2008-09-15 with total page 1005 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An international team of eminent atmospheric scientists have prepared Mechanisms of Atmospheric Oxidation of the Alkanes as an authoritative source of information on the role of alkanes in the chemistry of the atmosphere. The book includes the properties of the alkanes and haloalkanes, as well as a comprehensive review and evaluation of the existing literature on the atmospheric chemistry of the alkanes and their major atmospheric oxidation products, and the various approaches now used to model the alkane atmospheric chemistry. Comprehensive coverage is given of both the unsubstituted alkanes and the many haloalkanes. All the existing quality measurements of the rate coefficients for the reactions of OH, Cl, O(3P), NO3, and O3 with the alkanes, the haloalkanes, and their major oxidation products have been reviewed and evaluated. The expert authors then give recommendations of the most reliable kinetic data. They also review the extensive literature on the mechanisms and rates and modes of photodecomposition of the haloalkanes and the products of atmospheric oxidation of the alkanes and the haloalkanes, and make recommendations for future use by atmospheric scientists. The evaluations presented allow an extrapolation of the existing kinetic and photochemical data to those alkanes and haloalkanes that are as yet unstudied. The current book should be of special interest and value to the modelers of atmospheric chemistry as a useful input for development of realistic modules designed to simulate the atmospheric chemistry of the alkanes, their major oxidation products, and their influence on ozone and other trace gases within the troposphere.

This book was released on 2011-08-01 with total page 1634 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prepared by an international team of eminent atmospheric scientists, Mechanisms of Atmospheric Oxidation of the Oxygenates is an authoritative source of information on the role of oxygenates in the chemistry of the atmosphere. The oxygenates, including the many different alcohols, ethers, aldehydes, ketones, acids, esters, and nitrogen-atom containing oxygenates, are of special interest today due to their increased use as alternative fuels and fuel additives. This book describes the physical properties of oxygenates, as well as the chemical and photochemical parameters that determine their reaction pathways in the atmosphere. Quantitative descriptions of the pathways of the oxygenates from release or formation in the atmosphere to final products are provided, as is a comprehensive review and evaluation of the extensive kinetic literature on the atmospheric chemistry of the different oxygenates and their many halogen-atom substituted analogues. This book will be of interest to modelers of atmospheric chemistry, environmental scientists and engineers, and air quality planning agencies as a useful input for development of realistic modules designed to simulate the atmospheric chemistry of the oxygenates, their major oxidation products, and their influence on ozone and other trace gases within the troposhere.
Download or read book Chemical Processes in Atmospheric Oxidation written by Georges Le Bras and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1997 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Oxidation and removal of atmospheric constituents involve complex sequences of reactions which can lead to the production of photo-oxidants such as ozone. In order to understand and model these complex reaction sequences, it is necessary to have a comprehensive understanding of reaction mechanisms and accurate estimates of kinetic parameters for relevant gas-phase atmospheric reactions. This book presents recent advances in the field and includes the following topics: e.g. the oxidation of simple organic compounds, NOx kinetics and mechanisms, OH radical production and rate constants for the OH attack on more complex organic compounds, peroxy and alkoxy radical reactions, photo-oxidation of aromatic and biogenic compounds, and the interaction between radical species.

This book was released on 2001 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this work was to improve the understanding of the OH-radical initiated oxidation of aromatic hydrocarbons (benzene, toluene, p-xylene (BTX) and 1,3,5-trimethylbenzene (TMB)). These mechanisms are considered a major uncertainty in state-of-the-art photochemical models as they are used to predict photooxidant formation from urban air. Differential Optical Absorption Spectroscopy (DOAS) was employed in a systematic outdoor smog-chamber study at the European Photo Reactor (EUPHORE) located at the CEAM-Institute, Valencia/Spain. The available DOAS system was improved for this purpose. The yields of ring-retaining products (phenol from benzene, phenol-type and aldehyde-type compounds from p-xylene and TMB) and glyoxal (from BTX) were investigated. The phenol yield (Y(PHEN)= 53) was found more than two times higher than presently available literature values. Further, the bicycloalkyl-radical pathway was identified as a major pathway from BTX. It was demonstrated that the results of this study are representative for the atmosphere. Deviations from the the degradation pathways of BTX and TMB were further observed under conditions of high NOx (e.g. several ppm). The results of this work indicate that the representations of aromatics in photochemical models need to be updated. The results indicate that the contribution of aromatic hydrocarbons to the formation of photooxidants (i.e. ozone) is underestimated today.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary objective of the research program is to develop an understanding of the high temperature pyrolysis, oxidation and carbon formation processes in selected aromatic-hydrocarbon/air-combustion systems. The results of this study can be subsequently utilized to optimize the use of high-aromatic-content synthetic jet-fuels in both present and future jet combustors. Specific objectives of the research are to: study the kinetics of aromatic hydrocarbon pyrolysis in temperature and ranges of interest; study the ignition and oxidation of aromatic hydrocarbon-air systems; measure the critical fuel-oxidizer equivalence ratio for incipient soot formation in aromatic hydrocarbon-air mixtures; and develop quasi-global and/or detailed oxidation mechanisms for these aromatic hydro-carbons based on experimental data and computer modeling of the reaction systems.

Download or read book Volatile Organic Compounds in the Atmosphere written by Ralf Koppmann and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-04-15 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every day, large quantities of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are emitted into the atmosphere from both anthropogenic and natural sources. The formation of gaseous and particulate secondary products caused by oxidation of VOCs is one of the largest unknowns in the quantitative prediction of the earth’s climate on a regional and global scale, and on the understanding of local air quality. To be able to model and control their impact, it is essential to understand the sources of VOCs, their distribution in the atmosphere and the chemical transformations which remove these compounds from the atmosphere. In recent years techniques for the analysis of organic compounds in the atmosphere have been developed to increase the spectrum of detectable compounds and their detection limits. New methods have been introduced to increase the time resolution of those measurements and to resolve more complex mixtures of organic compounds. Volatile Organic Compounds in the Atmosphere describes the current state of knowledge of the chemistry of VOCs as well as the methods and techniques to analyse gaseous and particulate organic compounds in the atmosphere. The aim is to provide an authoritative review to address the needs of both graduate students and active researchers in the field of atmospheric chemistry research.
