Comparative elemental characterization of atmospheric fine and coarse PM samples by PIXE and ICP-MS/MS: results from a one-year measurement campaign in a coal-powered thermal power plant city
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2022)Daily fine (PM2.5) and coarse (PM2.5-10) particulate matter samples were collected from rural and urban monitoring stations located in an industrial region of mid-western Turkey, Kutahya city for one year. All fine- and ... -
Fates of heavy metals, S, and P during co-combustion of textile dyeing sludge and cattle manure
(Elseiver, 2023)The co-combustion of textile dyeing sludge (TDS) and cattle manure (CM) may enhance circularity in terms of resource and pollution controls. However, the pollutant migrations and transformations of ashes and their ... -
Simultaneous quantification of real-world elemental contributions from the exhaust and non-exhaust vehicular emissions using road dust enrichment factor-elemental carbon tracer method (EFECT)
(MDPI, 2023)Emission control regulations have been essential in reducing vehicular exhaust emissions. However, the contribution of exhaust and non-exhaust emissions to ambient particulate matter (PM) has not yet been accurately ... -
Cost-benefit analysis of road-transport policy options to combat air pollution in Turkey
(Springer, 2022)Road-traffic-based air pollution accounts for one-third of the air pollution problem in Turkey. In order to combat this environmental issue and illustrate the possible direction of the road transport policy, five scenarios ... -
Optimizing co-combustion synergy of soil remediation biomass and pulverized coal toward energetic and gas-to-ash pollution controls
(Elsevier, 2023)The co-combustion synergy of post-phytoremediation biomass may be optimized to cultivate a variety of benefits from re ducing dependence on fossil fuels to stabilizing heavy metals in a small quantity of ash. This study ... -
Transport dynamics of SARS-CoV-2 under outdoor conditions
(Springer, 2022)This study aimed at estimating the transport dynamics of a single severe acute respiratory syndrome corona-virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2)-laden droplet of 1 to 500 mu m in diameter at a wind speed from 1 to 4 m/s. Motion dynamics ... -
