Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive account of the important field of aerosol sampling as it is applied to the measurement of aerosols that are ubiquitous in occupational and living environments, both indoor and outdoor. It is written in four parts: Part A contains 9 chapters that describe the current knowledge of the physical science that underpins the process of aerosol sampling. Part B contains 4 chapters, which present the basis of standards for aerosols, including the link with human exposure by inhalation. Part C contains 7 chapters that cover the development of practical aerosol sampling instrumentation, and how technical designs and methods have evolved over the years in order that aerosol sampling may be carried out in a manner matching the health-related and other criteria that have been proposed as parts of standards. Finally Part D contains 6 chapters that describe how a wide range of aerosol sampling instruments have performed when they have been applied in the field in both occupational and ambient atmospheric environments, including how different instruments, nominally intended to measure the same aerosol fraction, compare when used side-by-side in the real world. The book draws together all that is known about aerosol sampling, for the benefit of researchers and practitioners in occupational and environmental health and all other fields of science and engineering where aerosols are of interest.

Download or read book Environmental Sampling for Trace Analysis written by Bernd Markert and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-09-26 with total page 554 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Often too little attention is given to the sampling before and after actual instrumental measurement. This leads to errors, despite increasingly sensitive analytical systems. This is one of the first books to pay proper attention to representative sampling. It offers an overview of the most common techniques used today for taking environmental samples. The techniques are clearly presented, yield accurate and reproducible results and can be used to sample - air - water - soils and sediments - plants and animals. A comprehensive handbook, this volume provides an excellent starting point for researchers in the rapidly expanding field of environmental analysis.

This book was released on 2004 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A denuder-based integrated organic gas and particle sampler (IOGAPS), specifically designed to minimize sampling artifacts, has been developed to sample atmospheric carbonaceous aerosols. IOGAPS first removes gas-phase chemicals via sorption to the XAD coated denuder, then traps particles on a quartz filter placed downstream of the denuder. A backup system consisting of sorbent (XAD-4 resin) impregnated quartz filters (SIFs) was used to capture the semivolatile organic carbon (SVOC) that evaporates from the upstream particle-laden filter. Elemental and organic carbon (EC and OC) were determined from filter punches by a thermal optical transmittance (TOT) aerosol carbon analyzer. Systematic evaluation of the performance of the IOGAPS showed that the IOGAPS system is able to determine the particle-bound OC more accurately in comparison to filter-pack (FP) based systems. Field sampling was conducted in July 2001 and March 2003 in downtown Toronto, ON and August 2001 in Vancouver, BC. Both IOGAPS and FP samples (i.e., PM2.5) were collected separately during the day and night so that diurnal variations of OC and SVOC could be investigated. The OC determined by the IOGAPS was usually higher during the night. This could be explained by the partitioning of the gas phase SVOC onto the pre-existing aerosols due to decreased ambient temperatures during the night. Such SVOC is often lost during FP sampling, but can be captured by the IOGAPS. The temperature-dependent subcooled liquid vapor pressures (PL) and enthalpies of vaporization (DeltavapH) at 25°C for 10 oxygenated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (OPAHs) were determined by a gas chromatography (GC) method. The vapor pressures of OPAHs were found to be significantly lower than their corresponding PAHs. It was estimated by the Junge-Pankow model that OPAHs with vapor pressures lower than 10-4 Pascal would predominately reside in the particle phase in the atmosphere. This could help explain the field measurements of four detected OPAHs (i.e., 9-fluorenone, anthraquinone, benzanthrone, and benz[a]anthracene-7,12-dione) in total suspended particle (TSP) samples collected in downtown Toronto during the summer of 2003. Their average particle-bound concentrations (ranges in parentheses) were 40 (10--70), 130 (50--270), 220 (110--360), and 270 (170--390) pg/m3, respectively.

Download or read book Radioactive Aerosols written by Constantin Papastefanou and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2011-07-28 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whenever radioactivity is released to the atmosphere, for example by the detonation of nuclear weapons or the testing of nuclear weapons or from nuclear reactor accidents that fraction of it which remains airborne for more than a few hours is liable to be attached to aerosol particles. The resulting radioactive aerosols are carried by atmospheric mixing processes until they settle out or are scavenged by precipitation. The radiation exposure pathway of maximum concern to humans is by inhalation of aerosols and their deposition in the respiratory tract. In this context, it is important to note that radioactive aerosols are commonly of natural origin alos. In particular, the associated radionuclides can be of natural terrestrial origin, such as the decay products of radon gas, or they can e cosmogenic, such as beryllium-7. The exposure of miners of uranium and other ores and minerals to radon and its aerosol-borne decay products is of major significance. The book describes the formation of aerosols, their aerodynamic size distribution, their atmospheric residence time, their sampling and measurement, the range of radioactive aerosols found and studied thus far, including man-made nuclides and radon decay products and their interaction with man, including deposition in the lung and subsequent health effects. - Advanced level science handbook for researchers, scientists and academics - Covers all aspects of radiation exposure in humans, including subsequent health implications - Presents the latest findings and analysis in this highly topical area
