Lecture 06: Urban air pollution and photochemical smog pollution control Lesson
Key issues:
- Urban air pollution: civilization and anthropogenic emission
- Common problems: burning of fuels & raw materials
- Results: uncontrolled, smoky cities, health problems, fatal episodes
- London-type smog: emission & fog or temperature inversion
- Automobile and photochemical smog: and NOX, ROGs with sunlight
- ROGs: alkenes, aromatics, aldehydes, not many alkanes
- Oxidizing agents: OH(g), HO2(g), NO3(g), O3(g), O(g)
- Photostationary-state relationship: NO2 :NO ratio and O3 level
- Urban air pollution: civilization and anthropogenic emission
