AIR QUALITY
• A Case Study: Air Pollution Abatement by Ronald L. Hawks and Charles D. Livengood (Textile Chemist & Colorist, September 1982). The results of this study offer a more reasonable solution to emission problems than expensive add-on control devices.
• Air Pollution Control in Textile Finishing by Harold J. Northup and William F. Turner (Textile Chemist & Colorist, April 1975). Methods for maintaining acceptable air quality within textile finishing plants are summarized.
• Analysis of Stack Gases Discharged from Synthetic Fiber Finishing by J. J. Porter, F. C. Alley and J. R. Grubbs Jr. (Textile Chemist & Colorist, June 1977). Before you can correct undesirable stack emissions, you first have to identify the objectionable pollutant.
• Hazardous Air Pollutants by Dale A. Denny (Textile Chemist & Colorist, June 1980). Increasing attention is being given to hazardous air pollutants. A significant factor is the increasing use of sophisticated and sensitive techniques for measuring specific chemicals in the atmosphere.
• Instrumental Techniques for Analyzing Air Pollutants Generated in Textile Processing by M. V. Zeller (Textile Chemist & Colorist, January 1975). A review of the various types of atmospheric contaminants generated in textile processing, a general survey of methods for sampling these materials, and a discussion of the instrumentation used for analyzing the pollutants.
