Wood, Joe, M. Clayton, T. McArthur, S. Serre, L. Mickelsen, AND D. Touati. Capture of Methyl Bromide Emissions with Activated Carbon Following the Fumigation of a Small Building Contaminated with a Bacillus anthracis Spore Simulant. EM: AIR AND WASTE MANAGEMENT ASSOCIATION'S MAGAZINE FOR ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGERS. Air & Waste Management Association, Pittsburgh, PA, 65(2):145-153, (2015).

Impact/Purpose:

In the event of a large urban release of Bacillus anthracis spores, fumigation with methyl bromide (MeBr) has been proposed as a potential remediation option. The information and data presented here will facilitate future use of this technology when fumigating with MeBr.
