Volatile organic compounds: ozone formation, alternative fuels and toxics

Abstract

The explosion of research in atmospheric chemistry over the past few decades has established the central role of reactive volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in a variety of tropospheric phenomena. This article provides a brief overview of several of the roles played by VOCs in polluted ambient atmospheres which are currently of considerable scientific, as well as technological and environmental/economic, interest.
