  2. Air pollutant concentrations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_pollutant_concentrations

    As an example, a measured NO x concentration of 45 ppmv in a dry gas having 5 volume % O 2 is: 45 × ( 20.9 - 3 ) ÷ ( 20.9 - 5 ) = 50.7 ppmv of NO x. when corrected to a dry gas having a specified reference O 2 content of 3 volume %. Note: The measured gas concentration C m must first be corrected to a dry basis before using the above equation.

  3. Particulates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particulates

    Average levels of PM 2.5 were measured using aqicn.org's World Air Quality Index data, and a formula developed by AirNow was used to convert the PM 2.5 figure into micrograms per cubic meter of air (⁠ μg / m 3 ⁠) values. Among the 70 capital cities investigated, Baghdad, Iraq is the worst performing one, with PM 2.5 levels going up +31.6 ...

    = Concentration at altitude , in mass per unit volume As an example, given a concentration of 260 mg/m 3 at sea level, calculate the equivalent concentration at an altitude of 1,800 meters: C a = 260 × 0.9877 18 = 208 mg/m 3 at 1,800 meters altitude

    Source term (the concentration or quantity of toxins in emission or accidental release source terms) and temperature of the material; Emissions or release parameters such as source location and height, type of source (i.e., fire, pool or vent stack) and exit velocity, exit temperature and mass flow rate or release rate.

  6. Particulate pollution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particulate_pollution

    Particulate matter (PM) is generally classified into two main size categories: PM 10 and PM 2.5. PM 10, also known as coarse particulate matter, consists of particles 10 micrometers (μm) and smaller, while PM 2.5, also called fine particulate matter, consists of particles 2.5 μm and smaller. [29]

    Mass of a substance as a fraction of the total mass kg/kg 1: intensive (Mass) Density (or volume density) ρ: Mass per unit volume kg/m 3: L −3 M: intensive Mean lifetime: τ: Average time for a particle of a substance to decay s T: intensive Molar concentration: C: Amount of substance per unit volume mol⋅m −3: L −3 N: intensive Molar ...

  8. Mass concentration (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_concentration_(chemistry)

    In chemistry, the mass concentration ρ i (or γ i) is defined as the mass of a constituent m i divided by the volume of the mixture V. [1]= For a pure chemical the mass concentration equals its density (mass divided by volume); thus the mass concentration of a component in a mixture can be called the density of a component in a mixture.

  9. Air quality guideline - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_quality_guideline

    The guidelines stipulate that PM 2.5 should not exceed 5 μg/m 3 annual mean, or 15 μg/m 3 24-hour mean; and that PM 10 should not exceed 15 μg/m 3 annual mean, or 45 μg/m 3 24-hour mean. [2] For ozone (O 3 ), the guidelines suggest values no higher than 100 μg/m 3 for an 8-hour mean and 60 μg/m 3 peak season mean. [ 2 ]
