Abstract:
... Carbonaceous substances in industrial emissions are harmful to human health, air quality, and climate change. Owing to the existence of various fuel types and different technological processes, the characterization of carbonaceous substances from industrial emissions varies significantly, which causes a large uncertainty in source apportionment. Therefore, nine typical industrial sources were sele ...

Abstract:
... Self-assembly of surfactants in aqueous solution can form a variety of aggregate structures, among which worm-like micelles (WLMs) have attracted much attention due to their excellent viscoelasticity. The addition of oil often leads to a decrease in the viscosity of WLMs, which is closely related to the location of oil dissolution within the WLMs. Whether oil could induce a viscosity increase in W ...

Abstract:
... One of the more important classes of potentially toxic indoor air chemicals are the Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs). However, due to a limited understanding of the relationships between indoor concentrations of individual VOCs and health outcomes, there are currently no universal health-based guideline values for VOCs within Europe including the UK. In this study, a systematic search was conduct ...
