Benzene and other hazardous air pollutants in consumer-grade natural gas in Europe
Consumer-grade natural gas leaks contribute to methane-induced climate change and can degrade air quality. However, limited leakage and gas composition data exist outside of North America. Here, we measured stove-off gas leakage in 35 homes and chemically characterized 78 unburned gas samples from residential stoves across seven cities in the United Kingdom, Netherlands, and Italy. On average, benzene in unburned gas was substantially elevated co…
Not just a climate problem
Methane super-emitter events (>100 kg methane hr −1 ) are prevalent across the oil and gas supply chain and are being targeted for methane mitigation policies due to their climate impacts; however, few studies have evaluated the air quality impacts and direct safety and public health risks. Here, we evaluate seven upstream oil and gas methane super-emitter events to examine the safety (explosivity) risks from methane and the short-term, noncancer…
Downstream natural gas composition across U.S. and Canada
Previous research has shown that natural gas (NG) leaks from residential appliances are common, affecting greenhouse gas emission inventories and indoor air quality. To study these implications, we collected and analyzed 587 unburned NG samples from 481 residences over 17 North American cities for hydrocarbons, hazardous air pollutants, and organosulfur odorants. Nearly all (97% of) gas samples contained benzene (between-city mean: 2335 ppbv [95%…
Beyond SO x reductions from shipping
Historically, cargo ships have been powered by low-grade fossil fuels, which emit particles and particle-precursor vapors that impact human health and climate. We used a global chemical-transport model with online aerosol microphysics (GEOS-Chem-TOMAS) to estimate the aerosol health and climate impacts of four emission-control policies: (1) 85% reduction in sulfur oxide (SO x ) emissions (Sulf); (2) 85% reduction in SO x and black carbon (BC) emi…
