A LARGE GAS-PHASE STRIPPING DEVICE TO INVESTIGATE RATE OF PAH EVAPORATION FROM AIRBORNE DIESEL SOOT PARTICLES

To provide insights into the kinetics of mass transfer between the gas and particle phases, evaporation rates of SOCs from particle surfaces are needed. In this study, the authors investigated the evaporation rates of selected polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from fresh diesel soot particles. A 1967 Mercedes sedan (Model 200D) engine was the source of diesel emissions for the first experiment, and a 1979 Mercedes sedan (Model 300SD) was used for the second experiment. Both cars were operated at 100-200 rpm, generally idling with occasional and momentarily applied loads. (A)
