Black carbon in the environment: properties and distribution
Book
·
OSTI ID:5473086
Black carbon is derived largely from the incomplete combustion of fossil fuels, wood, and biomass, as well as from certain industrial processes such as the production of carbon black for automobile tires and printing inks. This book contains detailed descriptions of the physical and chemical properties of atmospheric black carbon - the soot, charcoal, and other particulate forms of impure carbon in the atmosphere - its contribution to air pollution in urban and nonurban settings, and its possible effects on climate.
