The adjusted model was a VAR(1) and, according to the Granger causality test, the air pollutants selected were PM10, O3, CO, NO2, and SO2. The shocks applied to the variables O3, using the impulse response function, negatively impacted COPD; in the eighth period, which is stabilized. ...
The US AQI and the Malaysian API both use the same six pollutants, and both use the dominant pollutant – the pollutant with the highest Index value – to determine the overall Index value. In Malaysia, PM2.5 is usually the highest and therefore determines the overall Air Quality Index or A...
Prana Air SO2 sensor provides real-time measuring of the pollutant.6. Ammonia (NH3)Ammonia is a colorless, reactive, and soluble alkaline gas with a strong pungent odor and is only used by the Indian government as a parameter of AQI.
In marine engine technology, scrubbers are implemented to remove SO2 from the emission. Results in this study confirm the high effectivity of this application (see Table S1 in Supplementary Material), however, this is not the subject of the presented paper and will not be discussed further. The...
Styrofoam is made of benzene and styrene; both are carcinogens that pose health risks to producers and consumers of Styrofoam. Styrofoam is often used as an insulating material in housing and thermal insulation in objects such as disposable cups, coolers, and packaging materials. However, the harmf...
This open dataset was an annual PM2.5 map (spatial resolution: 0.01° × 0.01°) derived by a land use regression (LUR) with satellite observations, chemical transport modelling, and ground-based monitoring. LUR is a common mapping technique to estimate the spatial distribution of air ...
Associations were observed between PM2.5 [68,69], NO2 [67,69,70], O3 [68,70], SO2, and CO [69,70] and non-accidental mortality; however, age effects were not consistent. While somewhat pollutant dependent, older adults generally exhibited an increased risk of mortality with air pollution...
We conclude that as the PLCC policy is promoted, its impact on local green innovation has an inverted “U”-shaped tendency, which rises first and falls subsequently. Hypothesis 2 (H2): The impact of PLCC policy on green innovation has a temporally heterogeneous effect. 2.3. The Spatial ...
has complied with the MACT requirements for hazardous air pollutants. An unacceptably high risk is to be reduced by more stringent limitations imposed by the EPA at specific manufacturing sites. Upcoming Virtual Learning Conferences provide critical updates on current environmental regulations In fact, LR...
Chemistry is an essential branch of science that explores matter's composition, structure, and properties and the changes it undergoes during chemical reactions. It plays a vital role in daily life, from medicine and environmental sustainability to technological innovation and industry. When it comes ...
