Amostragem passiva de poluentes atmosféricos: aplicação ao SO2

The passive sampling technique has been widely used for many years in the measurement of personal exposure to pollutantes in the workplace. In recent years the technique has been used too for measurements in ambient air. In the specific case of SO2 a variety of passive samplers have been described in the literature. The great number are diffusive samplers and some few are permeation samplers. They are basically of two types: badge and tube-type. However there are more than 10 variations in relation to the sampler dimensions, diffusion barriers and pollutant sorption medium. The technique trend...
