6/1/2010 - Conference papersNIOSH has developed a portable elemental carbon monitoring device for use in underground mines. This paper discusses a variety of ways that this instrument has been used to help lower DPM concentrations and exposure to DPM in active mines.
-
6/1/2010 - Conference papersIn this study, NIOSH measured the atmospheric concentrations of DPM and gases in two mines in order to evaluate the effects of various control strategies on the atmospheric DPM concentrations.
-
11/1/2009 - Conference papersThe Pittsburgh Research Laboratory (PRL) of NIOSH conducts research to evaluate control technologies and monitoring instrumentation that can be used to reduce the diesel particulate matter (DPM) exposure of mine workers.
-
11/1/2009 - Conference papersThe paper discusses how the Diesel Particulate Matter (DPM) monitors have performed within the underground mine environment in evaluating DPM during the various phases of longwall moves.
-
3/1/2009 - Conference papersThe study objective was to compare some in vitro genotoxic activities between solvent-extraction and surfactant-dispersion preparations for a generally available diesel exhaust reference material, U.S. National Institute for Standards and Technology DPM...

6/1/2008 - Conference papersIn this investigative study NIOSH measured for sub-micrometer elemental carbon (EC) using two types of control technologies (ventilation and cabs) which are being implemented in limestone mines.
-
6/1/2008 - Conference papersThis paper describes a portable device developed by NIOSH for measuring levels of elemental carbon in real time.
-
10/1/2007 - Conference papersThis paper describes research into a laser absorption technique that enables one to measure elemental carbon concentration in diesel particulate matter in near real time.
-
6/1/2006 - Conference papersThe ambient diesel particulate matter (DPM) concentrations (at the intakes and exhausts of the mine) was evaluated as an entire vehicle fleet of a stone mine switched from using 35% biodiesel to a water-emulsified fuel (PuriNOx).
-
6/1/2006 - Conference papersThis paper provides detailed analysis of some of those challenges and short overviews of several projects launched by the NIOSH Pittsburgh Research Laboratory in an attempt to provide the underground mining industry with more adequate DPF systems.
