Description
More than a decade ago, we encountered a problem of high particle concentrations in large open-plan offices when conducting investigations on the impact of a nearby motorway on air quality in the offices. Eventually the particles were linked to the operation of numerous laser printers in the offices and we designed a study to characterize and classify the printers according to their impacts as particle emitters (He et al 2007). We demonstrated that the particles were in the ultrafine range, and our subsequent studies showed that they were secondary liquid particles formed from volatile compounds emitted during the printing process (Morawska et al 2009), and that the operating temperature the printer was the key factor in this process (He et al 2010). Ten years later, we decided to revisit the issue and examine whether the new generation of printers is improved and emit less.
Impact and interest:
Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
Full-text downloads:
Full-text downloads displays the total number of times this work’s files (e.g., a PDF) have been downloaded from QUT ePrints as well as the number of downloads in the previous 365 days. The count includes downloads for all files if a work has more than one.
