  1. 21. Promoting Air Quality Policy Adoption and Change

    Författare :Sakarias Einar Sefik Bank; Ian Kellar; Rosemary McEachan; Greg Marsden; Darryl O'Connor; Pete Coventry; UK University of Leeds School of Psychology; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Air pollution is a localised issue but negatively influences health and finance globally. Conurbations and regional governments struggle to find the best policy solutions to meet air quality limit levels while competing over resources and attempting to secure growth. LÄS MER

  3. 22. Removal of ultrafine particles by intermediate air filters in ventilation systems. Evaluation of performance and analysis of applications

    Författare :Bingbing Shi; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; measurements; ultrafine particles; lifetime cost; indoor air quality; health effect; air cleaning; particle source; modelling; intermediate filter; filter standard;

    Sammanfattning : Epidemiological and toxicological studies demonstrate that ultrafine particles (UFPs) are strongly related with respiratory and cardiovascular diseases and syndromes. One common method to reduce human exposure to particulate air pollution is the use of intermediate class filters (F5-F9 class filters according to EN779:2002). LÄS MER

  4. 23. In pursuit of clean air through numerical simulations of no-waste pollutant removal

    Författare :Marc Rovira; Christophe Duwig; Klas Engvall; Matthew Johnson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Air quality; SOx and NOx removal; Ozone oxidation; Aerosol particle formation; Large-eddy simulations; Reactive flows; Proper orthogonal decomposition; Machine learning; Sensitivity analysis; Engineering Mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

    Sammanfattning : As epidemiological evidence continues to mount, it has become undeniable that exposure to high levels of airborne pollutants such as SOx and NOx are detrimental to human health. In recent years, millions of premature deaths by stroke, coronary heart disease, and lung cancer worldwide have been linked to poor outdoor air quality. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Numerical and experimental study of confluent jets supply device with variable airflow

    Författare :Harald Andersson; Bahram Moshfegh; Mathias Cehlin; Fredrik Karlsson; Högskolan i Gävle; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Confluent jets; Air distribution system; Air supply device; Ventilation performance; Indoor air quality; Thermal comfort; Experimental study; Laser Doppler Anemometry LDA ; Computational fluid dynamics CFD ; Shear stress transport SST k – ω ; confluent jets; luftdistributionssystem; tilluftsdon; ventilationsprestanda; inomhusluftkvalitet; termisk komfort; experimentell studie; Laser-Doppler-anemometri LDA ; Computational fluid dynamics CFD ; turbulens model SST k – ω ; Hållbar stadsutveckling; Sustainable Urban Development;

    Sammanfattning : In recent years, application of confluent jets for design of ventilation supply devices has been studied. Similarly, numerus studies have been made on the potential and application of variable air volume (VAV) in order to reduce the energy demand of ventilation systems. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Machine Learning Approaches to Develop Weather Normalize Models for Urban Air Quality

    Författare :Chau Ngoc Phuong; Mengjie Han; Rasa Zalakeviciute; Ilias Thomas; Mario Salvador González Rodríguez; Högskolan Dalarna; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Weather Normalized Models WNMs ; Air Pollution; Data-Driven Modeling and Optimization; Deep Learning - Artificial Neural Network DL-ANN ; Machine Learning;

    Sammanfattning : According to the World Health Organization, almost all human population (99%) lives in 117 countries with over 6000 cities, where air pollutant concentration exceeds recommended thresholds. The most common, so-called criteria, air pollutants that affect human lives, are particulate matter (PM) and gas-phase (SO2, CO, NO2, O3 and others). LÄS MER
