A further study of air pollution in diesel bus garages.
The concentrations of smoke, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), and some gaseous air pollutants have been measured in two London Transport diesel bus garages and compared with observations made in the same garages over 20 years earlier. The main feature of the results was a large reduction in the background concentrations of smoke and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons from sources such as ...
متن کاملVehicular Air Pollution Modeling For Diesel Driven Vehicles
-Pollution in air is generated by the developments, which typically occur as the country gradually shifts towards industrialization, due to city growth, increasing traffic, rapid economic development, and higher levels of energy consumption.

متن کاملAir pollution and lung cancer: diesel exhaust, coal combustion.
In 1946, when the causes of lung cancer were much less well understood than they are now, a meeting was held by the British Medical Research Council to review hypotheses to explain the remarkable increase in the death rates from lung cancer and to determine strategy. Stocks came away from the meeting to study the community aspects of air pollution, which he did by extending his series of correl...
متن کاملExposure assessment of diesel bus emissions.
The goal of this study was to measure ultrafine particle concentrations with diameters less than 1 mum emitted by diesel buses and to assess resulting human exposure levels. The study was conducted at the Woolloongabba Busway station in Brisbane, Australia in the winter months of 2002 during which temperature inversions frequently occurred. Most buses that utilize the station are fuelled by die...
متن کاملSchool bus pollution and changes in the air quality at schools: a case study.
Millions of children attending US schools are exposed to traffic-related air pollutants, including health-relevant ultrafine aerosols generated from school buses powered with diesel fuel. This case study was established in a midwestern (USA) metropolitan area to determine the concentration and elemental composition of aerosol in the vicinity of a public school during morning hours when the bus ...
