Atmospheric Particulate Matter (PM) from biomass burning is often associated with respiratory and cardiovascular diseases, and even cancer. Among the organic compounds, Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) have received special attention due to their high toxicity. Retene, which is not included in the 16 priority PAHs list of US-EPA, had a potential adverse effect on human lung cells, …
The high use of ethanol fuel in Brazil leads to an atmosphere particularly rich in alcohols and aldehydes, especially in large urban areas. With the perspective of second generation ethanol production, automotive emissions associated with the use of this fuel are expected to increase, affecting the oxidative capacity of the atmosphere and public health. Acetaldehyde and formaldehyde have …
Hydrogen peroxide is one of the most important oxidants present in the troposphere, affecting its oxidative capacity. This substance plays an important role in the oxidation of sulfur dioxide, producing sulfuric acid, which contributes to the rainwater acidification. Moreover, hydrogen peroxide also promotes the oxidation of organic compounds because during its photodegradation there is t…
