Creator:: Meland, Bruce Roger
Abstract:: A field study on grass field burning was conducted in the Willamette Valley of Oregon during the summer of 1965. Approximately 243,000 acres of grass fields are burned in the valley during August and September. Serious air pollution problems result from this burning. The purposes of the study were to...

Creator:: Kowalczyk, John F.
Abstract:: A study was conducted to determine what effects the type of pollutants, storage conditions, storage time, and method of sample conditioning have on the reported weight of an air pollutant collected by filtration. Samples were collected from a refuse dump, an arc furnace smelting nickel ore, and a rotary kiln...

Creator:: Wise, Kenneth Raymond
Abstract:: The "Teepee" type wood residue incinerator, similar to many other sources, requires sampling at the point where the emissions enter the atmosphere. Because the location of the emission point is hazardous and unpleasant for the operation of a sampling probe, a portable, tilt-up column was developed which permitted installation, operation,...

Creator:: Shigehara, Roger T.
Abstract:: A source test was conducted to determine the particulate and the total gaseous hydrocarbon emissions from a gas heated veneer dryer. Samples were taken on eight separate days from the exhaust stacks while the dryer was processing Douglas fir veneer. Of the eight days, three was used to determine the...

Creator:: Azarbaijani, Masoud
Abstract:: Many agricultural fields are burned in the Willamette Valley of Oregon during the summer for economic reasons. A major air pollution problem results from these burnings. The purpose of this study was to develop relations between the maximum plume height and some of the independent variables affecting this plume height,...

Creator:: Nelson, William George
Abstract:: An integrating nephelometer was set up at the Eugene Airport which is located five miles north of Eugene, Oregon, on Highway 99 West. Continuous atmospheric scattering coefficient readings were obtained from July 1, 1969, to August 28, 1969. These data are converted to meteorological range through the use of the...

Creator:: Hudson, Arthur E.
Abstract:: An emmission sampling system was developed to measure pollutants emitted from a mobile agricultural incinerator developed at Oregon State University. The system was designed to collect a particulate sample on an 8" x 10" fiber glass filter and collect a gaseous sample in a plastic bag. Pollutants measured were particulates...
