Children, an important vulnerable group, spend most of their time at schools (up to 10 h per
day, mostly indoors) and the respective air quality may significantly impact on children …

Many researchers have used coal fly ash; rice husk ash, nano material and conducting
polymer-as adsorbents to remove water pollutants including Cr, Pb, Hg, Zn, Mn and Cu …

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are organic compounds composed of at least two
benzene rings. This paper reviews the characteristics, sources and health risk of airborne …

Identifying combined pollution risk areas is difficult because of the complex pollutant sources
and heterogeneous soil properties in urban systems. This study used bivariate local Moran's …

Abstract Air Pollution Tolerance Index (APTI) is used to assess how tolerant plant species
are of air pollution; it also serves to identify tolerant plant species that can be useful for …

To analyze the temporal variations of heavy metals, health risk, and source-specific health
risk, 24 road dust samples were collected from Bei**g in each month in two years. The …

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) have been of health concern due to its
carcinogenesis and mutagenesis. In this study, we aimed to assess the variations, sources …

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in ambient particulate matter contribute
considerably to human health risk. Simultaneous sampling of ambient PM 2.5/PM 10 was …

Fog significantly affects the air quality and human health. To investigate the health effects
and mechanisms of atmospheric fine particulate matter (PM 2.5) during fog episodes, PM 2.5 …

In order to study the sustained impact of particulate matter on urban residents, 572 PM2. 5
and PM10 samples in all were attained simultaneously from a densely populated area of …
