Evaluation of coarse and fine particles in diverse Indian environments.
The estimates of airborne fine particle (PM2.5) concentrations are possible through rigorous empirical correlations based on the monitored PM10 data. However, such correlations change depending on the nature of sources in diverse ambient environments and, therefore, have to be environment specific. Studies presenting such correlations are limited but needed, especially for those areas, where PM...
متن کاملPOLYCYCLIC AROMATIC HYDROCARBONS (PAHs) IN FINE AND COARSE PARTICLES
About 140 samplings of fine and coarse particles were gathered during the year 2006 in Kozani that represent an urban area surrounded by opencast coal mining. A low volume dichotomus sampler has been used to trap suspended particles. The filters used were teflon, which are ideal for analysis in the determination of PAHs. The determination of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) has been carr...
متن کاملCoarse-to-fine skeleton extraction for high resolution 3D meshes
This paper presents a novel algorithm for medial surfaces extraction that is based on the density-corrected Hamiltonian analysis of Torsello and Hancock [1]. In order to cope with the exponential growth of the number of voxels, we compute a first coarse discretization of the mesh which is iteratively refined until a desired resolution is achieved. The refinement criterion relies on the analysis...
متن کاملDevelopment of a High Volume Cascade Impactor for Toxicological and Chemical Characterization Studies
This paper presents the design and development of a compact high volume cascade impactor (HVCI). The HVCI operates at a ow rate of 900 l/min and consists of 4 impaction stages equipped with circular slit-shaped acceleration nozzles and a backup lter. The backup lter is placed downstream of the fourth stage and is used to collect the ultra ne particles (dp < 0.1 1m). The major feature of ...
متن کاملThreshold dependence of mortality effects for fine and coarse particles in Phoenix, Arizona.
Daily data for fine (< 2.5 microns) and coarse (2.5-10 microns) particles are available for 1995-1997 from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) research monitor in Phoenix, AZ. Mortality effects on the 65 and over population were studied for both the city of Phoenix and for a region of about 50 mi around Phoenix. Coarse particles in Phoenix are believed to be natural in origin and spa...
