    Författare :David Michael Langhammer; Lars Österlund; Tomas Edvinsson; Gunnar Niklasson; Günther Rupprechter; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; titanium dioxide; photocatalysis; surface reaction; oxygen vacancies; air pollution; sulfur dioxide; nitrogen dioxide; carbon dioxide; sulfate; nitrate; carbonate; Engineering Science with specialization in Solid State Physics; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot fasta tillståndets fysik;

    Sammanfattning : Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is a material with many useful properties. It is used most widely as a pigment in white paint, although in technological research it is better known for its ability to catalyze chemical reactions during light absorption. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Modelling as a Tool to Evaluate Continuously Measured Concentration Value of Gaseous Indoor Air Pollutants

    Författare :Martin Kraenzmer; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NO2; modeling; TVOC; modelling; indoor air; pollutants; continuous monitoring; NOx; VOC; NO; O3; continuous measurement; CO; CO2;

    Sammanfattning : Results from studies of air quality in buildings are often difficult to interpret and evaluate and, in order to avoid erroneous conclusions, special evaluating tools may be needed. Modelling in various forms can be used as a method of evaluating measured values from such investigations. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Indoor and Outdoor Air Pollution in Relation to Allergy and Asthma in Taiyuan, China

    Författare :Zhuohui Zhao; Dan Norbäck; Jan Sundell; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Medical sciences; Indoor air; China; School; Allergen; Dust; Microbial exposure; SO2; Air pollutants; Epidemiology; MEDICIN OCH VÅRD;

    Sammanfattning : The aim was to study the prevalence of asthma, eczema, allergy and respiratory symptoms among pupils in Shanxi province, China, in relation to home and school environment and outdoor air pollution. In one study there was a low prevalence of self-reported asthma, eczema and pollen or pet allergy among pupils (9-20y). LÄS MER

  4. 4. New methods for determination of airborne pollutants : Focus on tetrabromobisphenol A, organophosphate triesters and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons

    Författare :Johanna Tollbäck; Ulrika Nilsson; Peter Haglund; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Air sampling; sampling methods; indoor air; SPE; SPME; extraction; dynamic extraction; online coupling; SWE; subcritical water extraction; GC MS; LC MS; organophosphate triesters; PAH; tetrabromobisphenol A; Analytical chemistry; Analytisk kemi; Analytical Chemistry; analytisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : The work presented in this thesis concerns the development and evaluation of new methods of sampling and analysis of organic pollutants in the indoor and outdoor environment. In Paper I, the development of a new method was reported for the determination of the brominated flame retardant tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA) in air using sampling with glass fiber filter and polyurethane foam (PUF), ultrasonic solvent extraction and liquid chromatography coupled to electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry (LC-ESI/MS).

  5. 5. Energy Efficient Air Quality Solutions for Vehicle Cabins

    Författare :Dixin Wei; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; climate system; private car; measurements; particulate matters; CO2; simulations; air quality; air filter; UFP; filter status; energy use; vehicle cabin;

    Sammanfattning : Maintaining a good air quality level is essential for reducing potential health risks for human beings. Vehicle cabin is one common environment where people spend increasing amount of time in modern societies. It’s an environment challenged by elevated pollutants from surrounding traffics, especially small particles like PM2. LÄS MER
