Aerosol Sampling

Science, Standards, Instrumentation and Applications

von James H. Vincent
This book provides a comprehensive account of the important fieldof aerosol sampling as it is applied to the measurement of aerosolsthat are ubiquitous in occupational and living environments, bothindoor and outdoor. It is written in four parts:
Part A contains 9 chapters that describe the current knowledgeof the physical science that underpins the process of aerosolsampling.
Part B contains 4 chapters, which present the basis of standardsfor aerosols, including the link with human exposure byinhalation.
Part C contains 7 chapters that cover the development ofpractical aerosol sampling instrumentation, and how technicaldesigns and methods have evolved over the years in order thataerosol sampling may be carried out in a manner matching thehealth-related and other criteria that have been proposed as partsof standards.
Finally Part D contains 6 chapters that describe how a widerange of aerosol sampling instruments have performed when they havebeen applied in the field in both occupational and ambientatmospheric environments, including how different instruments, nominally intended to measure the same aerosol fraction, comparewhen used side-by-side in the real world.
The book draws together all that is known about aerosolsampling, for the benefit of researchers and practitioners inoccupational and environmental health and all other fields ofscience and engineering where aerosols are of interest.
