Combustion characteristics of water-insoluble elemental and organic carbon in size selected ambient aerosol particles

Combustion of elemental carbon (EC) and organic carbon (OC) contained in ambient aerosol matter was explored using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) in combination with energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX). To ease identification of the particles of interest and to avoid or at least reduce intera...
