CE 556LEC - Intro Aerosol Science

Aerosols, dispersions of nano- and micro-particles in gases, play important roles from the nanoscale, where aerosol processes are used to produce new nanomaterials, to global scales where they play important roles in weather and climate. This course will provide students with an introduction to aerosol science and technology at a senior undergraduate/beginning graduate level. It will provide students with the knowledge and skills needed to understand and predict the production, transport, and other behavior of aerosols and will introduce them to technologies for producing, measuring, and collecting them. It provides a solid foundation for understanding aerosols in contexts ranging from advanced materials to atmospheric chemistry and physics.
