Development of an emission inventory for commercial cooking in Attica

(Corresponding) Fameli K., Kladakis A., Assimakopoulos V.
Topic: 
Air pollution
The aim of this research was to estimate the pollutants that are emitted from the fuels used by the dominated types of commercial restaurants, due to their cooking demands. The study was carried out for the region of Attica; however, the methodology can be applied in many urban areas. For the...Read more

Particulate Matter impacts on public health in a Mediterranean coastal city, Patras, Greece

(Corresponding) Nastos P., Moustris K., Kosmopoulos G., Salamalikis V., Kazantzidis A.
Topic: 
Urban environment and health
It is of great consensus among the scientific community that particulate matter (less than 10 μm or 2.5 μm in diameter, hereafter PM10 and PM2.5, respectively) has become a significant threat for human health in modern urban agglomerations. Taking into consideration the intensification of...Read more

Assessment of exposure to fine and ultrafine particulate-bound polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons during prescribed burns

Teixeira J., Morais S., Rodrigues F., Delerue-Matos C., (Corresponding) Oliveira M.
Topic: 
Air pollution and health
Portugal is one of the most affected countries in southern Europe by wildfires. The human exposure characterization to fine particulate matter (PM) during fires remains limited; no information is available for ultrafine particles nor their composition on polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs)...Read more
