Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrimary Pollutants Monitoring and Modeling Using Chemical Mass Balance (CMB) Around Fahaheel Residential AreaS. M. Al-Salem, A. A. Al-Haddad, A. R. KhanFour major sources of air pollution were identified and modeled using Chemical Mass Balance (CMB) around a residential area. The sources were identified as MAA refinery, downtown area, upstream facilities and main highway road. The sources were analyzed using a series of concentration roses (unfiltered and filtered) executed from the data collected. Data collected included primary and secondary pollutants levels … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 29 Feb 2008 · 6,742 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Temperature and pH on the Stability and Colorimetric Measurement of Textile DyesA.S. Mahmoud, A.E. Ghaly, S.L. BrooksMost of the textile dye removal techniques operate within temperature and pH ranges of 20-60°C and 2-12, respectively. Both the pH and temperature have been reported to have significant effects on the efficiencies of the dye removal techniques. In this study, the effects of pH and temperature on the stability and color measurement (absorbance) of the textile dye remazol brilliant … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 10,741 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Fuel Consumption and Exhaust Emissions During Engine Warm-upM. Al-HasanEngine exhaust emission and fuel consumption during warm-up period was experimentally investigated. Experiment was conducted on a four-stroke four-cylinder spark ignition engine alternatively equipped with CIS and EIS. Fuel consumption; and exhaust emissions included hydrocarbon, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide were measured as a function of ambient temperature; i.e. 7, 25 and 40ºC. In order to simulate engine operation condition … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,417 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReview of Photochemical Smog Pollution in Jakarta Metropolitan, IndonesiaDollaris R. Suhadi, M. Awang, M. N. Hassan et al.An analysis of photochemical smog pollution in Jakarta was attempted using data from the existing air quality monitoring stations. Ground-level ozone potential is high in Jakarta due to the high traffic emissions of ozone precursors and the favorable surface meteorological conditions. Despite the frequent missing data during the 1996-1999 monitoring, which resulted in lower ozone values, ozone episodes were significantly … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 7,247 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRAM 1.0 Software for Gaussian-Plume Multiple Source Air Quality SimulationLiren Yu, Paulo I.F. de AlmeidaThis study presents a developed software in environmental engineering, namely RAM 1.0 (RAM: Regulatory Air Model), adopted completely Graphical User Interface (GUI) technique, for operating in various Windows-based microcomputers. RAM 1.0 software consists of the improved RAM Model and RAM Algorithm as well as developed RAM 1.0 Graphical User Interface, respectively. RAM Model takes into account different ambient characteristics, meteorological … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2005 · 7,458 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordStatus of Air Quality with Potential Linkage to the Metrological Conditions in Three Major Cities of PakistanNaima Hamid, Muhammad Junaid, Syeda Maria Ali et al.Environmental pollution being fatal for all living organisms is growing adversely due to excessive industrialization and urbanization. Vehicular emissions have aggravated the situation and pose detrimental effects on human health. In this study, the trend of ambient air quality was analyzed in the three metropolitan cities of Pakistan, including Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad for a period of three years (2008-2010). … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 11 Mar 2019 · 8,854 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordThe Comparison of Spectrophotometric Method and High-Performance Liquid Chromatography in Photosynthetic Pigments AnalysisSabina Jodłowska, Adam LatałaProblem statement: Spectrophotometric method and High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) are the most useful tools to photosynthetic pigments analysis. The main objective of this reaserch was to compere the results obtained by these two independent methods in experiments under controlled laboratory conditions. Approach: Comparison between spectrophotometric and HPLC methods for pigment analysis was carried out on Baltic cyanobacterium Geitlerinema amphibium, which … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 30 Sep 2011 · 10,865 accessesView PDF Cite
