21. Potential mechanisms for acute health effects and lung retention of inhaled particles of different origin
Sammanfattning : Background: Environmental particle exposure is known to have negative health effects. There is limited knowledge about how size and origin of particles influence these effects. There is also little known regarding the fate of ultrafine particles (particles in nanosize;< 100 nanometers in diameter) after being inhaled. LÄS MER
22. Studies of aerosol particle formation from various sources using ion and electron beam analytical techniques
Sammanfattning : The thesis presents the results of studies of aerosol particle formation using ion and electron beam analytical techniques. The sources of aerosol particle formation studied are the following: 1. production of primary aerosol particles in the high Arctic region during summers 2. LÄS MER
23. Dispersion and Transformation of Traffic Exhaust Particles in the Urban Atmosphere
Sammanfattning : Ultrafine particles, their sources and fate in the atmosphere are currently key issues in atmospheric research owing to concern about their effects on human health and global climate. Traffic emissions are a dominating source of ultrafine particles, especially in urban areas. LÄS MER
24. Emissions, dynamics and dispersion of particles in polluted air
Sammanfattning : The main objective of this thesis is to yield information on how atmospheric fine and ultrafine particles are dispersed in populated areas. Quantitative information on emissions, transport and removal is needed to assess the health risks of inhalable particles. LÄS MER
25. Wet magnetic concentration for weakly magnetic mineral fines and ultrafines
Sammanfattning : The first objective of the thesis was to reveal the characteristic magnetic behaviour of natural weakly magnetic minerals (such as hematite and chromite), and the size limits of the particles recoverable by the existing modem high intensity and high gradient magnetic separators. The second objective was to enhance the particle aggregation andlor the magnetic response for wet magnetic concentration of the ultrafines which escaped from the separators. LÄS MER
