A study of carbothermal reduction of sulfur dioxide to elemental sulfur using oilsands fluid coke

Article Abstract:

This study to develop a coke-based sulfur-producing flue gas desulfurization process shows that sulfur dioxide can be reduced to elemental sulfur by using oilsands fluid coke at temperatures over 700 degrees Centigrade.

A new instrument to measure gaseous nitrous acid (HONO) in the atmosphere

Article Abstract:

Gaseous nitrous acid is detected in the laboratory and in an outdoor smog chamber by a long path absorption photometer (LOPAP) using photometric detection and wet chemical sampling. The detection instrument, LOPAP, is described in detail, as are the possible interaction effects from the calibration and make-up of its body.

Toxics release inventories: opportunities for improved presentation and interpretation

Article Abstract:

Toxics Release Inventory data may be underexploited and misinterpreted. It is suggested that indices that combine emission data with toxicity, environmental persistence and the potential for multimedia partitioning can provide a more accurate picture of the environmental impact of such discharges. Two indices, one that measures toxicity and persistence and another that weights toxicity, environmental persistence and environmental mobility, are presented.
