Black carbon in urban atmospheres: source apportionment, mixing states, and implications for climate and respiratory health

Black carbon (BC) is a major urban pollutant affecting climate and health. This review examines studies published between 2018 and 2026 on BC sources, mixing state, and impacts. Traffic emissions dominate developed cities, while biomass and residential combustion are major sources in developing regions. Particle mixing...

Pollution characteristics, migration and transformation, and health risk assessment of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in environmental media of prototype coking plants in Shanxi, China

Coking is one of the important emission sources of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). We analysed distribution characteristics of PAHs emitted from the coke oven top and in environmental media in the prototype coking plants. The migration and transformation of PAHs in the coking plants was investigated, a qua...
