Abstract. As part of the FORMES summer 2008 experiment, an Aerodyne compact time-of-flight aerosol mass spectrometer (cToF-AMS) was deployed at urban background site in Marseille to investigate sources and aging organic aerosols (OA). France's second largest city port Mediterranean, Marseille, provides a locale that is influenced by significant industrialized emissions active photochemistry with very high ozone concentrations. Particle spectra were analyzed positive matrix factorization...

The potential health effects of fine and ultrafine particles are increasing concern. A better understanding particle characteristics dispersion behavior is needed. This study aims at characterizing spatial temporal variations in after emission from a model source an experimental house. Particles emitted by incense stick burning for 15 min were characterized. Number concentration, specific surface area mass measured. Partial chemical analysis was also realized. Near the stick, maximum...

The ozone decomposition onto mineral surfaces prepared with traces of solid TiO2 in a matrix SiO2 order to mimic dust particles has been investigated using coated-wall flow-tube system at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. uptake coefficients were measured both under dark conditions irradiation near UV-light. While the was negligible, large photoenhanced observed. For TiO2/SiO2 mixtures irradiation, increased increasing mass fraction (from 1 3 wt %), corresponding coefficient based...

The heterogeneous reaction of NO(2) on Saharan sand collected from different locations has been studied at 298 K and 25% relative humidity using a horizontal coated-wall flow tube. samples originated Mauritania, Algeria, Morocco Tunisia were taken as simplified proxies for mineral dust. While the uptake in dark was always very small, photo-enhanced observed all four showing that natural minerals do have photochemical activity. coefficient gamma(BET) measured sands. In dark, values are (1.60...

MIL-101(Cr) films were deposited on the quartz crystal microbalance and interdigitated electrode transductors as humidity sensors. Both devices combine high sensitivity with fast response/recovery times, good repeatability, long-term stability, favorable selectivity versus toluene alongside a dual mode behavior in optimal domain of for indoor air.

A dual computational/experimental approach enabled ranking of the performance a series MOFs for α-pinene capture in terms affinity and uptake. UiO-66(Zr) is demonstrated to be good candidate adsorbing at sub-ppm levels, while MIL-125(Ti)-NH2 shows ideal performances abating concentrations encountered indoor air.

Abstract. Organic Aerosol (OA) measurements were conducted during summer 2008 at an urban background site, in Marseille, France's second city and the largest port Mediterranean, industrialized environment known for its active photochemistry. PM2.5 was collected using high volume samplers analyzed elemental organic carbon, major ions (NH4+, NO3− SO42−), humic-like-substances, markers (i.e. primary tracers α-pinene oxidation products), composition radiocarbon content (14C). The real-time...

Abstract Phthalates are ubiquitous indoor organic pollutants that found in different building and consumer materials known to cause severe human health problems. In this paper, the emission of these compounds from vinyl floorings (VF) into air has been studied using Automated Thermal Desorption-Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectroscopy (ATD-GC-MS) a special device as micro-chamber or thermal extractor (μ-CTE™). So robust analytical ATD-GC-MS method developed validated analyse eight selected...
