  1. 1. Refining the particulate matter airway deposition arising from indoor cooking-related biomass combustion for children in the Haramaya district in Ethiopia

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Ergonomi och aerosolteknologi

    Författare :Kasper Malmborn; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Air pollution exposure; charcoal; wood; animal dung; low-income setting epidemiology; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Air pollution, a global issue affecting millions of individuals, is linked to adverse health effects on the respiratory system, but also to e.g., cancer and cardiovascular ailments. In low-income countries, cooking is often conducted by biomass-combustion, causing women and children to be exposed to high levels of indoor air pollution. LÄS MER
