Mutagenicity of Cookstove Emissions
Citation:
DeMarini, D. Mutagenicity of Cookstove Emissions. Webinar hosted through a cooperative agreement by EPA/OAR and Winrock International, rtp, NC, November 29, 2017.
Impact/Purpose:
This presentation includes the following topics: (1) Introduction and field activities, John Mitchell, (2) STAR (Science To Achieve Results) grants, Terry Keating, (3) LCA (life cycle assessment) report, (4) Mutagenicity study, David DeMarini, (5) Health effects study, Jan Dye, (6) ISO standards update, Jim Jetter, (7) Capacity building for testing centers, Jim Jetter, (8) Cookstove/fuel test reports, Jim Jetter, (9) PAH (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon) emissions, Guofeng Shen, (10) UFP (ultrafine particle) emissions, Guofeng Shen, and (11) Questions and discussion.
Description:
The presentation by David DeMarini will focus on emission factors, including mutagenicity, for 3 stoves. It will correlate the emission factors to assess the health safety of the stove systems and place the mutagenicity emission factor in context with that of other combustion emissions.
