Rapid transformation of wildfire emissions to harmful background aerosol

Athanasios Nenes, Spyros Pandis

Wildfires are a significant source of organic aerosol during summer, with major impacts on air quality and climate. However, studies in Europe suggest a surprisingly low (less than 10%) contribution of biomass burning organic aerosol to average summertime ...

Building structures made of reused cut reinforced concrete slabs and walls: A case study

Maléna Bastien Masse, Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Nicole Widmer

Reuse of reinforced concrete (RC) components reduces construction’s environmental impacts and waste. Rather than crushing the concrete of an obsolete structure, its components are saw cut and later reassembled in a new structure. The theoretical feasibilit ...
