President Obama announced a new climate plan that includes setting limits on carbon emissions from US power plants. The plan aims to reduce emissions from fossil fuel energy sources and increase renewable energy and energy efficiency. Researchers from the Atmospheric Sciences Research Center at SUNY and Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute studied the catalytic reactivity of airborne particulate matter and its potential role in atmospheric chemical reactions. Their research examined particles collected from power plant boilers and simulated samples to assess the impact of heterogeneous catalysis on the rates of pollutant gases in the atmosphere.

? ABSTRACT
? We examine the radioactive properties of clouds containing submicron soot Particles as impurities. The
soot particles are assumed to be distributed Randomly inside water drops. The refractive index of this
inhomogeneous mixture is evaluated using the mixing rule for a composite medium. Single and multiple
scattering properties are obtained using, respectively the Mie theory and the Delta-Eddington
approximation.
? The presence of soot enhances the visible light absorption in clouds. A soot volume fraction of 7 × 10"6 in
a model stratus cloud increases the value of the single scattering co-albedo from 10"7 (the value
corresponding to that of pure water) to 10"3.

? ABSTRACT
? Carbonaceous smokes are produced by a variety of combustion sources like chimney stack furnaces, industrial
flames, aircraft and rocket engines, all mote vehicles and especially diesel engines. The soot formation results
from incomplete combustion of fuels containing carbon. The carbonaceous particles contribute to local air
pollution of densely populated and industrial areas, as well as to global pollution possibly affecting the earth's
climate. For these reasons there is a need to measure and eventually routinely monitor the mass concentration
of these pollutants released into the atmosphere. In this paper we propose a simple method (based upon the
extinction measurement at two wavelengths) to determine accurately the mass concentration of carbonaceous
smokes

INTRODUCTION
?
? A cooperative effort between research groups at the Atmospheric Sciences Research Center of the State University of
New York and the Surface Studies Laboratory at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute is currently under way. The ultimate
aim of this effort is to assess the role that heterogeneous catalysis of atmospheric chemical reactions at the surface of
airborne particulate material plays in the overall turnover rate of pollutant gases in the atmosphere. The approach to
the problem is twofold. On the one hand, atmospheric sampling techniques are being used to collect airborne
particulate materials, such as those found in fossil fuel fired power plant boilers. These particles are characterized in
terms of morphology, size distribution and chemical composition both bulk and surface. Samples of these particles are
then prepared for chemical kinetic studies in the molecular beam surface research system, to be described below. In a
concurrent study, samples are being prepared to simulate those aspects of the surface composition of the airborne
particulates that are felt to be of possible significance catalytically. These samples, after characterization, are being
exposed to reactant gas mixtures in the molecular beam system. A combination of mass spectrometric detection of
desorbed product fluxes and Auger electron spectrometric detection of non-volatile surface products is being used to
characterize the rate and extent of the surface reaction. It is hoped that this combination of techniques will lead to
unequivocal conclusions as to the rate-limiting steps in the chemical reactions studied. In the work to date, we have
been investigating the overall reaction SO/2 + O/2 +SO/3 + Sulfates at the surfaces of both real stack particulate
samples and laboratory- prepared samples, prepared so as to simulate the surface composition of the real particulates.
The aim of the work is to assess the role that catalytic reaction on particulate surfaces plays in the turnover of SO/2 in
power plant plumes. The techniques used are applicable to a wide range of reactions on a wide range of surfaces. The
aim of the present paper is as much to explain the potentialities and limitations of the techniques employed as to
report results on the specific system studied to date.
