Journal ArticleDOI
Atmospheric levels and cytotoxicity of PAHs and heavy metals in TSP and PM2.5 at an electronic waste recycling site in southeast China
TL;DR: In this article, the authors collected air samples of total suspended particles (TSP, particles less than 30-60μm) and thirty samples of particles with aerodynamic diameter smaller than 2.5μm (PM2.5) at an electronic waste (e-waste) recycling site in southeast China from 16 August 2004 to 17 September 2004.
Journal ArticleDOI
Source apportionment of ambient non-methane hydrocarbons in Hong Kong: application of a principal component analysis/absolute principal component scores (PCA/APCS) receptor model.
TL;DR: A PCA/APCS model was applied to the data on non-methane hydrocarbons measured from January to December 2001 at two sampling sites in Hong Kong and found that vehicle emissions and LPG or natural gas leakage were the main sources of C(3)-C(5) alkanes and C( 3-C( 5) alkenes while aromatics were predominantly released from paints.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: None of any carcinogenic compounds like formaldehyde, acetaldehyde or benzene are detected in the raw fuels, confirming that those are almost entirely derived due to cooking activity alone.
Journal ArticleDOI
Seasonal characteristics and regional transport of PM2.5 in Hong Kong
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of meteorological characteristics on PM2.5 mass and chemical composition in Hong Kong, a major city of the Pearl River Delta (PRD), was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ground-level ozone in the Pearl River Delta region: Analysis of data from a recently established regional air quality monitoring network
TL;DR: In this article, the ambient air quality monitoring data of 2006 and 2007 from a recently established Pearl River Delta (PRD) regional air quality sampling network are analyzed to investigate the characteristics of ground-level ozone in the region.
