1. Characterization, Source Apportionment and Health Risk Assessment of PM2.5 for a Rural Classroom in the Amazon: A Case Study
Classrooms are microenvironments in which children and teenagers may be exposed to fine particulate matter (PM2.5). Iranduba is a rural city in the Amazon region close to many brick kilns and road with high traffic levels. In this study, indoor and outdoor PM2.5 levels were measured in a classroom in Iranduba, and the PM2.5 exposure effects on student’s he

3. REGULATED AIR POLLUTANT EMISSIONS FROM HIGHER EMITTERS STATIONARY SOURCES IN BELO HORIZONTE, MINAS GERAIS, BRAZIL
Abstract Belo Horizonte, capital of Minas Gerais state, is a highly urbanized city located in the third largest metropolitan area of Brazil, being one of the most important cities in the country. There are several potential air pollutant emission sources in the studied area, such as industry and the vehicular fleet (1,669,884 vehicles in 2015). These can aff

4. Trace metals and PAHs in topsoils of the University campus in the megacity of São Paulo, Brazil
Abstract: The aim of this study is to discuss the concentration distribution, composition and possible sources of trace metals and 13 PAHs in topsoils of the University campus, in the city of São Paulo, the largest city of South America. Mineralogy and granulometry of topsoils (0-10 cm) samples, were determined and As, Ba, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Mo, Ni, Pb, Sb, V,

5. Inorganic and Organic Acids in the Atmosphere of the Urban Area of the City of Salvador, Brazil
Different fuels are used in Brazil and there is little knowledge about the presence of organic and inorganic acids in the atmosphere of the Brazilian cities. HNO3, HCl, HCOOH and CH3COOH were sampled in the gas phase using passive samplers and thermodiffusion system, in which the H2SO4 particulate was also sampled, in five sites of Salvador. Ion chromatograp

6. Analysis of the Impacts of the Electrification of the Vehicle Fleet in the Electric Power System in Curitiba
ABSTRACT The Market share of electrical vehicles has been rising in the past few years and tends to rise even more. According to the International Energy Agency, an increase of 50% in the number of electrical vehicles is expected. Whilst that increase is beneficial from a greenhouse gases emissions drop point of view, that rise could, on the other hand, repr

7. Estimated evolution of total pollutant gas emissions associated with vehicle activity in the Metropolitan Region of Porto Alegre until 2030
ABSTRACT In recent years, the majority of economic sectors in Brazil have gone through processes of development and transformation. These processes have led to increases in environmental pollution of all kinds; air pollution being one of the most adverse. The Brazilian transportation sector, which heavily affects the air quality, experienced a significant in

8. AVALIAÇÃO DA EFICIÊNCIA DO MÉTODO TO-15 PARA DETERMINAÇÃO DE COMPOSTOS ORGÂNICOS VOLÁTEIS EM CONDIÇÕES TÍPICAS DE AMBIENTE URBANO
The efficiency of U.S.EPA TO-15 Method was evaluated under typical conditions of an urban environment with natural and anthropic emission sources. The performance criteria which should be met for a system to qualify, were fulfilled: a detection limit of ≤0.2 ng for all target compounds, replicate precision for a calibration standard and ambient samples wit

9. Métodos de avaliação da exposição ambiental aos poluentes atmosféricos gerados por tráfego veicular / Methods of environmental exposure assessment to air pollutants generated by vehicular traffic
A poluição atmosférica é uma das maiores preocupações para a saúde pública, pois tem sido associada ao aumento nas taxas de morbimortalidade. Entretanto, para muitos desfechos, o conhecimento científico acerca do tema ainda é limitado para se inferir uma associação robusta com a exposição a essa poluição. A avaliação da exposição por meio

10. Introdução de misturas de GNV e hidrogênio (Hidrano) em veículos convencionais no Brasil e seus impactos econômicos, ambientais e energéticos / Introduction of CNG and hydrogen (HCNG) for conventional vehicles and its economic, environmental and energy impacts
Several strategies have been proposed to introduce hydrogen in the economy specifically in the transport sector in order to reduce environmental impacts of conventional fuels. One of the strategies implies in adding hydrogen to compressed natural gas (HCNG), making use of the existing refueling stations and natural gas fleet. Thus the costs and time for the

11. Desenvolvimento de metodologia para avaliação de hidrocarbonetos policíclicos aromáticos e derivados em emissões de motores usando diesel/biodiesel / Development of methodology for evaluation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and derivatives in emissions from engines using diesel / biodiesel
Os hidrocarbonetos policíclicos aromáticos (HPA) são amplamente estudados na área de meio ambiente, em diversas matrizes ambientais como ar, água, solo e sedimento, devido a sua toxicidade, potencial mutagênico e carcinogênico. Por conta disto, as agências ambientais de países desenvolvidos listaram dezesseis HPA como sendo poluentes prioritários.
