Chemical characterization of PM2.5 (major and trace elements) was carried out for a source apportionment study of PM2.5 at a traffic site in Constantine, Algeria, from March 2017 to March 2018. For this purpose, several tools were used of which PMF, CPF, PSCF, Spearman correlation matrix and HYSPLIT back trajectories. The mean annual concentration...
Measurements of Saharan dust (SD) inputs are very scarce in the vicinity of the Saharan desert. This work aims to identify Saharan dust intrusions and evaluate their contribution to annual and daily PM10 at an urban background site located in the city of Constantine in Algeria. A reliable identification of SD days was carried out using aerosol maps...
This study presents for the first time, the results of a one-year measurement campaign on ambient PM10 (particulate matter with aerodynamic diameter less than 10 μm) at an urban site at Zouaghi, in the south of Constantine, Algeria. The main objective of this work was to provide PM10 mass concentrations, a chemical characterization of atmospheric p...
Volatile organic compounds are considered as major sources of air pollution. They cause toxicity problems, bad odors, global warming, etc. Methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) is used in the formulation of lacquer type paints, varnishes, cleaners, thinners, etc. and in many other industries such as the manufacture of synthetic leather and in the decaffeinatio...
Very few previous investigations of respirable PM have been undertaken in the city of Constantine, Algeria. In general, air quality in Algeria and other Maghreb countries has not been extensively studied because of the insufficient number of researchers involved in this field and the unreliability of the few air quality monitoring networks installe...
