1 The World Health Organization recognizes six main types of air pollutants carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, particulate matter, sulphur dioxide, tropospheric ozone and suspended particulate matter.

Iran provides chemical analyses of samples taken from cultural heritage artefacts and sites which suggest contact with particulate matter and hydrocarbons, but they are not sufficient to enable the Panel to determine the time of contact or the origin of the particulate matter.

The particulate is sent for analysis, using alpha, beta and gamma spectroscopy, together with mass spectroscopy techniques.

For instance, tropospheric ozone is a powerful greenhouse gas and particulate pollutants can have strong effects on local and regional climate.

Based on the results of an air dispersion model, Kuwait estimates daily concentrations of particulate matter and calculates population weighted exposure estimates.

Parts of the United Kingdom nuclear weapons complex use high volume air samplers, which employ a filter to collect and monitor particulate emissions.

Effluents and emissions are generated to some extent by production processes in a weapons complex and can be solid, liquid, gaseous and particulate in form.

Very nice, and there my older, senior lungs, as I like to call them, I filled with particulate matter, carbon dioxide and very high doses of ozone.

Saudi Arabia relies on the results of its human health risk assessment study to estimate the concentrations of airborne particulate matter to which its population was exposed.

According to Saudi Arabia, the Quantification Study demonstrates that 1,397 premature deaths were due to exposure to airborne particulate matter that resulted from the invasion and occupation.

Three million people die every year in cities due to bad air, and almost all particulate pollution on this planet is produced by transportation devices, particularly sitting in cities.

According to Kuwait, the results of the risk assessment show that the number of deaths due to exposure to particulate matter from the oil well fires range between 0 and 116.

Moreover, the evidence presented does not enable the Panel to draw any conclusions about the nature and extent of deterioration that could have been the result of contact with the particulate deposition.

According to Saudi Arabia, the results of the study prove that there were increased concentrations of airborne particulate matter in eastern Saudi Arabia and that these were sufficient to cause premature deaths.

Nor are we choking on pollution. Whereas the Club of Rome imagined an idyllic past with no particulate air pollution and happy farmers, and a future strangled by belching smokestacks, reality is entirely the reverse.

In particular, Kuwait seeks compensation for loss of economic value resulting from 35 premature deaths that it estimates occurred due to the exposure of its population to airborne particulate matter from the oil well fires.

Until relatively recently, environmental protection and consumer safety were secondary issues in the United States and Europe. In 1952, London experienced five days of lethal, particulate laden smog that killed 12,000 people and sickened more than 100,000.

Specifically, Saudi Arabia seeks compensation for the loss of 1,397 persons who, according to its estimates, died prematurely in 1991 and 1992 as a result of the exposure of its population to increased levels of particulate matter.

Kuwait relies on the results of its monitoring and assessment enumeration study to estimate the ground level concentrations of airborne particulate matter to which its citizens were exposed during the period when the oil well fires were burning.

According to Kuwait, the results of its monitoring and assessment study demonstrate that the emissions from the oil well fires resulted in increased concentrations of particulate matter in populated regions of Kuwait in quantities sufficient to cause premature deaths.

A bayonet style connection may be found on both sides of the respirator to which 3M s particulate filters and organic vapor cartridges may be connected. Together with the respirator, these can effectively withstand various contaminants in a heavily polluted environment.

Iran presented evidence intended to show that the oil spills created oil slicks in an extended area of the Persian Gulf, and that the oil well fires resulted in the deposition of particulate matter over large areas of land and sea.

Publicizing fine particulate (so called PM2.5) levels was critical to mobilizing widespread Chinese public support for addressing air pollution. Similar metrics are now needed to measure other forms of natural capital destruction, such as deforestation, marine reef bleaching, wastewater discharge, and soil degradation.

In the Quantification Study, Saudi Arabia generated a statistical estimate of the expected increase in mortality, based on information in epidemiological and scientific literature, and estimates of the concentrations of airborne particulate matter to which its population was exposed, as derived from the HHRA.

As the relevant responsible person of Beijing Environmental Protection Agency explained, the mean concentration of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) was 35 micrograms per cubic meter in Beijing in August of this year, which created the best record for the same period in history of the recent five years.

Syria asserts that a large portion of its population was exposed to pollutants in the form of gases and airborne particulate matter released from the oil well fires, and that this resulted in a significant increase in the number of cases of acute and chronic respiratory diseases in its population.

The Panel notes that there is sufficient evidence to show that the oil well fires in Kuwait resulted in increased ground level concentrations of airborne particulate matter in populated areas of Kuwait between February 1991 and October 1991, and that these concentrations could have been sufficient to cause increased mortality in Kuwait.

Third claim unit Increased mortality Saudi Arabia seeks compensation in the amount of USD 5,549,312,879 for increased mortality in Saudi Arabia due to airborne particulate matter from the oil well fires in Kuwait, from disturbance of desert areas by military activities and from the large number of diesel powered military vehicles used for military operations.
