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.
-
6/1/2006 - Conference papersThe results of a series of tests in an underground mine were used to evaluate several measurement methods that are currently used to characterize particulate matter emitted by diesel-powered equipment. This paper presents an overview of these techniques...

4/1/2005 - Peer reviewed journal articlesA diesel particulate matter analyzer capable of direct, real-time measurement of engine exhaust particulate is necessary to effectively institute source control technology currently being used on diesel equipment and to ensure that the control measures ...
-
1/1/2005 - Peer reviewed journal articlesInvestigates the ability of the SKC DPM cassette to collect diesel particulate matter while segregating ore dust from the sample.
-
10/1/2004 - Unpublished documents and reportsA summary of the investigation and findings of nearly three years of field and laboratory work looking at diesel particulate filter (DPF) systems.
-
10/1/2004 - Peer reviewed journal articlesA monitoring method for diesel particulate matter was published as Method 5040 by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH).
-
5/1/2004 - Conference papersDescribes a computer program developed by NIOSH for estimating the air quantity needed to dilute diesel particulate matter in underground large opening mines.
