Assessment and improvement of indoor environmental quality in a primary school
Ekren, Orhan; Karadeniz, Ziya Haktan; Atmaca, İbrahim; Ugranlı Çiçek, Tuğba; Sofuoğlu, Sait Cemil; Toksoy, Macit (Taylor & Francis, 2017-02)This study reports levels of indoor environmental quality variables before and after installation of heat recovery ventilation in a primary school located in an urban area in Izmir, Turkey. A CO2-based modeling was performed ... -
Evaluation of a conceptual model for gas-particle partitioning of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons using polyparameter linear free energy relationships
Shahpoury, Pourya; Lammel, Gerhard; Albinet, Alexandre; Sofuoǧlu, Aysun; Dumanoğlu, Yetkin; Sofuoğlu, Sait Cemil; Wagner, Zdenek; Zdimal, Vladimír (American Chemical Society, 2016-11-15)A model for gas-particle partitioning of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) was evaluated using polyparameter linear free energy relationships (ppLFERs) following a multiphase aerosol scenario. The model differentiates ... -
An exposure–risk assessment for potentially toxic elements in rice and bulgur
Sofuoğlu, Sait Cemil; Sofuoğlu, Aysun (Springer, 2017-04-10)Rice and wheat are rich sources of essential elements. However, they may also accumulate potentially toxic elements (PTE). Bulgur, the popular alternative to rice in the eastern Mediterranean, is produced by processing ... -
The first countrywide monitoring of selected POPs: Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) and selected organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) in the atmosphere of Turkey
Kurt Karakuş, Perihan Binnur; Ugranlı Çiçek, Tuğba; Sofuoğlu, Sait Cemil; Çelik, Halil; Güngörmüş, Elif; Gedik, Kadir; Sofuoğlu, Aysun; Ökten, Hatice Eser; Birgül, Aşkın; Alegria, Henry; Jones, Kevin C. (Elsevier, 2018-03)Atmospheric levels of 43 PCBs, 22 OCPs, and 14 PBDEs were determined in 16 cities at urban and rural sites by passive sampling to generate the first large-scale nationwide dataset of POP residues in Turkey's atmosphere. ... -
Forecasting ambient air SO2 concentrations using artificial neural networks
Sofuoğlu, Sait Cemil; Sofuoğlu, Aysun; Birgili, Savaş; Tayfur, Gökmen (Taylor & Francis, 2006-07)An Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) model is constructed to forecast SO 2 concentrations in Izmir air. The model uses meteorological variables (wind speed and temperature) and measured particulate matter concentrations ... -
Indoor air quality in a restaurant kitchen using margarine for deep-frying
Sofuoğlu, Sait Cemil; Toprak, Melis; İnal, Fikret; Çimrin, Arif H. (Springer, 2015-10-01)Indoor air quality has a great impact on human health. Cooking, in particular frying, is one of the most important sources of indoor air pollution. Indoor air CO, CO2, particulate matter (PM), and volatile organic compound ... -
MCDM analysis of wind energy in Turkey: decision making based on environmental impact
Değirmenci, Sinem; Bingöl, Ferhat; Sofuoğlu, Sait Cemil (Springer, 2018-07)Development of new wind energy projects require complex planning process involving many social, technical, economic, environmental, political concerns, and different agents such as investors, utilities, governmental agencies, ... -
Occurrence, oral exposure and risk assessment of volatile organic compounds in drinking water for İzmir
Kavcar, Pınar; Odabaşı, Mustafa; Kitiş, Mehmet; İnal, Fikret; Sofuoğlu, Sait Cemil (Elsevier, 2006-10)Concentrations of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) were measured in the drinking water in Province of İzmir, Turkey, and associated health risks due to ingestion of these compounds were investigated using population ... -
POPs in a major conurbation in Turkey: ambient air concentrations, seasonal variation, inhalation and dermal exposure, and associated carcinogenic risks
Ugranlı, Tuğba; Güngörmüş, Elif; Kavcar, Pınar; Demircioğlu, Eylem; Odabaşı, Mustafa; Sofuoğlu, Sait Cemil; Lammel, Gerhard; Sofuoǧlu, Aysun (Springer, 2016-11-01)Semi-volatile organic compounds were monitored over a whole year, by collection of gas and particle phases every sixth day at a suburban site in Izmir, Turkey. Annual mean concentrations of 32 polychlorinated biphenyls ... -
Source apportionment and carcinogenic risk assessment of passive air sampler-derived PAHs and PCBs in a heavily industrialized region
Çetin, Banu; Yurdakul, Sema; Güngörmüş, Elif; Öztürk, Fatma; Sofuoğlu, Sait Cemil (Elsevier, 2018-08)Cancer has become the primary reason of deaths in Dilovasi probably due to its location with unique topography under the influence of heavy industrialization and traffic. In this study, possible sources and carcinogenic ... -
Spatial and seasonal variations, sources, air-soil exchange, and carcinogenic risk assessment for PAHs and PCBs in air and soil of Kutahya, Turkey, the province of thermal power plants
Dumanoğlu, Yetkin; Gaga, Eftade O.; Güngörmüş, Elif; Sofuoğlu, Sait Cemil; Odabaşı, Mustafa (Elsevier, 2017-02)Atmospheric and concurrent soil samples were collected during winter and summer of 2014 at 41 sites in Kutahya, Turkey to investigate spatial and seasonal variations, sources, air-soil exchange, and associated carcinogenic ... -
Speciated arsenic concentrations, exposure, and associated health risks for rice and bulgur
