Weekly Message 1/30/2021

Greetings and happy Saturday! I hope you are all doing well!  I can't believe January is almost over - where did the month go?  As I mentioned in class, under each LON-CAPA problem is a discussion board. Feel free to use that to ask questions about a particular problem. All I ask is that you don't post complete solutions, but feel free to provide guidance and/or support for your classmates. I would love for the discussion boards to help create a learning community.  On Monday we will discuss emission factors and also how this relates to Project 1, which is posted on LON-CAPA in the project folder. I have also posted team assignments there. On Wednesday, we will begin a discussion of the health effects of air pollutants. As part of that unit, you may be interested in some recent reports: Air pollution is linked to permanent vision loss   Air pollution is a serious threat to human health in Salt Lake City, Utah The article mentioned can be found here Air Pollution in S...

  Happy Monday, I apologize for the lateness of this weekly message. I don't have any good excuse - I just forgot to write it.  I all of you had a wonderful weekend. I took some time to get in three very nice walks (and over 10 miles). Although it doesn't look like it in the photos, Spring is really here. On Sunday, I walked in the Ingham County Conservation District in Mason with a friend. We saw (and heard) geese, wood ducks, mallard ducks, turtles, wood frogs, a coopers hawk, red-winged blackbird, a muskrat, merganser ducks, and spring peepers. And we saw a garter snake, along with trout lilies and skunk cabbage pushing up from the soil. We will continue control of air pollutants, focusing our discussion on gaseous pollutants.  The homework on primary particulate control technologies (gravity settlers, centrifugal separators, ESPs) is due on Monday April 5.  If you need the 48 h grace period, just let me know. Participation question 11 is due on the same d...
