M Chaychian, C A. Jones, Dianne L. Poster, Joseph Silverman, Pedatsur Neta, Robert E. Huie, M I. Al-Sheikhly
Radiolytic dechlorination of PCBs in transformer oil and in marine sediments has been studied. At low PCB concentrations, complete degradation of the PCBs in transformer oil was achieved without degradation of the oil. Addition of an organic base

Distinguishing the Relative Contribution of Fossil Fuel and Biomass Combustion Aerosols Deposited at Summit, Greenland through Isotopic and Molecular Characterization of Insoluble Carbon

J F. Slater, Lloyd A. Currie, J E. Dibb, Bruce A. Benner Jr
Although the earth's polar regions are isolated from most industrial activity, combustion-generated particles from both fossil fuel and biomass burning impact the regions. Most efforts aimed at quantifying the input of combustion aerosols at Summit

Prototype Software for Contaminant-Based Design

George Walton, Andrew K. Persily
Outdoor air intake rates of mechanical ventilation systems have traditionally been determined using prescriptive methods based on ventilation requirements per unit floor area or per occupant. This approach has serious shortcomings. It provides no
