Volatile organic compounds and their measurements in the troposphere
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are ubiquitous atmospheric constituents of both anthropogenic and natural origin. VOCs are important precursors of tropospheric ozone (O3), and can impact air quality and global climate. Most of primary VOCs and their oxidized products makeup a major fraction of secondary pollutants in urbanized regions. Due to fast reaction rates mainly with the hydroxyl radic...
متن کاملVolatile Organic Compounds in Uremia
BACKGROUND Although "uremic fetor" has long been felt to be diagnostic of renal failure, the compounds exhaled in uremia remain largely unknown so far. The present work investigates whether breath analysis by ion mobility spectrometry can be used for the identification of volatile organic compounds retained in uremia. METHODS Breath analysis was performed in 28 adults with an eGFR ≥ 60 ml/min...
متن کاملMeasurement of Volatile Organic Compounds
To answer critical questions regarding the interactions between green plants and air quality, two three-year projects are underway to investigate emission of volatile organic compounds (VOC) from selected plant species. These biogenic VOC (BVOC) and oxides of nitrogen (NOx) can react in the lower atmosphere in the presence of sunlight to form ozone and secondary particulate matter, the principa...
متن کاملCatalytic Oxidation of Volatile Organic Compounds and Malodorous Organic Compounds
This thesis describes efforts made on the development of an existing catalytic incinerator. The development work, called process characterization, consists of four general parts. These are the development of measurement methodology, the studying of construction materials, the selection of suitable catalysts and the testing of the effects of process operation conditions. The two application area...
متن کاملNonvolatile, semivolatile, or volatile: redefining volatile for volatile organic compounds.
UNLABELLED Although widely used in air quality regulatory frameworks, the term "volatile organic compound" (VOC) is poorly defined. Numerous standardized tests are currently used in regulations to determine VOC content (and thus volatility), but in many cases the tests do not agree with each other, nor do they always accurately represent actual evaporation rates under ambient conditions. The pa...
