Volatile 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...
متن کاملCatalytic Removal of Volatile Organic Compounds
The degradation of air quality by the release of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into the air particularly harms human health and our environment. Regulation of outdoor VOC emissions is required to prevent the formation of ground-level ozone, which is principally responsible for photochemical smog. Indoor emissions of VOCs have been the subject of recent consideration for many governments aro...
