Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This compelling study analyzes the emissions of stone quarries and their wide-reaching impact on particulate levels for the first time through a comprehensive field study. The author meticulously analyzes the respective impacts of haul roads, paved roads, and crusher/storage areas to offer site-specific and quantitative conclusions. By measuring net concentrations, the quarry's direct contribution to ambient particulate levels is calculated, revealing an average impact of 30 ug/m3 at 1 km and 15 ug/m3 at 2 km on days with quarry operations. The study also highlights the effectiveness of watering as a dust control measure, reducing concentrations immediately downwind of haul roads and the crusher/storage area by 31 and 26 percent, respectively. This groundbreaking research provides valuable insights into the sources and control of fugitive dust emissions from quarries, offering critical guidance for air quality management and the reduction of particulate pollution in both quarry operations and similar industrial settings. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
