Design of Road-Side Barriers to Mitigate Air Pollution near Roads
(Corresponding) Huertas J., Aguirre J., Lopez O., Lopez C.
Topic:
Air pollution
The effects of using solid barriers on the dispersion of air pollutants emitted from the traffic of vehicles on roads located over flat areas were quantified, aiming to identify the geometry that maximizes the mitigation effect of air pollution near the road at the lowest barrier cost. Toward that...Read more

Evaluation of solid sorbents for acid flue gas emissions treatment
(Corresponding) Ravina M., Cerutti A., Marotta E., Zanetti G., Panepinto D., Ruffino B., Zanetti M.
Topic:
Air pollution
Removal of acid gases from exhaust emissions of industrial applications (SOx, HCl, HF) still represents a challenge for many sectors, in particular for waste to energy facilities. In dry absorption processes, the solid reagent (typically Ca(OH)2 or NaHCO3) is injected countercurrent to the gas in a...Read more
