Modeling atmospheric aging of small-scale wood combustion emissions: distinguishing causal effects from non-causal associations

2022

Small-scale wood combustion is a significant source of particulate emissions. Atmospheric transformation of wood combustion emissions is a complex process involving multiple compounds interacting simultaneously. Thus, an advanced methodology is needed to study the process in order to gain a deeper understanding of the emissions. In this study, we are introducing a methodology for simplifying this complex process by detecting dependencies of observed compounds based on a measured dataset. A statistical model was fitted to describe the evolution of combustion emissions with a system of differential equations derived from the measured data. The performance of the model was evaluated using simu…
