Biomass burning (BB) is a significant air pollution source, with global, regional and local
impacts on air quality, public health and climate. Worldwide an extensive range of studies …

Black carbon is a byproduct of incomplete combustion of hydrocarbons and it has attracted
widespread attention in various fields such as atmospheric chemistry, climate change, and …

Coal combustion for power generation is a major source of particulate air pollution.
Understanding of the formation mechanisms and properties of coal combustion aerosols is …

Atmospheric aerosols play a substantial role in climate change through radiative forcing.
Combustion-produced carbonaceous particles are the main light-absorbing aerosols; thus …

Composition of exhaust from a ship diesel engine using heavy fuel oil (HFO) was
investigated onboard a large cargo vessel. The emitted particulate matter (PM) properties …

Heavy fuel oil (HFO) particulate matter (PM) emitted by marine engines is known to contain
toxic heavy metals, including vanadium (V) and nickel (Ni). The toxicity of such metals will …

Particulate matter emitted by diesel engines is mainly formed by soot agglomerates, which
are composed of primary particles forming irregular clusters. The primary particles have …

In this paper emission factors (EFs) for particulate matter (PM) and some sub-components as
well as gaseous substances were investigated in two onboard measurement campaigns …

The physical and chemical properties of biomass combustion-originated particles produced
under controlled conditions (efficient, intermediate, and smouldering combustion) were …

In this work, fuel formulation exerted a strong influence on the properties of diesel
particulates leading to differences in oxidation rate. These differences were especially …
