HAPs release from wood drying
Article Abstract:
Researchers from the Georgia-Pacific Corp. and the Institute of Paper Science and Technology studied the release of hazardous air pollutants from drying hardwood and softwood flakes and revealed that emissions of volatile organic compounds such as formaldehydes, pentanal, hexanal and methanol depends on the temperature, the type of wood, and the time between flake production and drying.

Method to simultaneously improve PCB radiolysis rates in transformer oil and to close the chlorine mass balance
Article Abstract:
Researchers from Idaho and Missouri discovered that adding alkaline propanol to transformer oil solutions and isoocatane of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) increase the dechlorination rate of PCB using radiolysis.

Canopy level fluxes of 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol, acetone, and methanol by a portable relaxed eddy accumulation system
Article Abstract:
The canopy level flux measurements of 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol, methanol and acetone used the portable relaxed eddy accumulation system. The measurements of these chemicals were taken over a subalpine forest, located in Colorado's Rocky Mountains.
