Eastern North Atlantic Aerosol Mask (ENA-AM) with the Condensation Particle Counter (CPC) at Supplementary Facility (S01)

Eastern North Atlantic (ENA) Aerosol Mask (ENA-AM) is a mask developed to isolate high concentration aerosol events and identify the regional baseline in one minute time resolution CPC measurements collected at the ENA supplementary site (S1) during summer (July 22 to August 20) 2017. ENA-AM is based on the statistically different behavior of adjacent data points during background and pollution peaks measurements. Measurements that differ by more than α times the standard deviation (σm) of the data below the median plus the two points after are masked by ENA-AM.

ARM Data for Examining the Ice-Nucleating Particles from SGP Part II (ExINP-SGP II) Aerodynamic Particle Sizer, Condensation Particle Counter, and Meteorological Instrument Data Analysis

Knowledge of airborne particulate matter (PM), especially the particles that have supermicron diameters, is key for understanding ice-nucleating particles (INPs). Supported by the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) user facility, we sampled PM and surface soil materials at the Southern Great Plains observatory (SGP; 36° 36′ 18″ N, 97° 29′ 6″ W) to systematically compare the INP abundance and ice nucleation efficiency of different SGP samples (i.e., airborne versus surface materials). The field campaign, named Examing INP from SGP II (ExINP-SGP II), was conducted from 20 January to 20 April, 2021. Our data analysis products include (1) physical surface sorption characterization data (i.e., BET, pore volume) of two sets of samples -- SGP Soil and USDA, (2) X-ray diffraction spectra for the same two samples, (3) immersion freezing assay-based ice nucleation active mass density data as a function of freezing temperature for both ambient and surface samples, and (4) time-series data of ambient meteorological conditions, concentration particle counter-derived aerosol particle concentration, and aerosol particle sizer measurement during ExINP-SGP II.

EASTERN NORTH ATLANTIC (ENA) CONDENSATION PARTICLE COUNTER (CPC) with the AEROSOL MASK (ENA-AM) for the YEAR 2017

The Eastern North Atlantic (ENA) central facility is periodically affected by episodes of local aerosols. High-concentration aerosol events associated with potential local aerosol sources are sampled by the Concentration Particle Counter (CPC) and can be observed in the high-time-resolution data. In an effort to remove aerosol data that is not regionally representative from the CPC data, an aerosol mask (ENA-AM) has been previously developed and validated during the ACE-ENA campaing (Gallo et al., 2020). The ENA-AM is a standard deviation algorithm based on the statistically different behavior of adjacent data points used to determine periods when the measurements are impacted by local aerosols. This file contain one-minute time resolution submicron aerosol particle concentration datasets from the CPC for the year 2017, and the corresponding ENA-AM datasets to remove datapoints affected by local aerosol sources.

Method for condensing a CO2 vapor stream beyond the frost point

A method for cryogenic cooling without fouling is disclosed. The method comprises providing a first cryogenic liquid saturated with a dissolved gas; expanding the first cryogenic liquid into a separation vessel, separating into a vapor, a second cryogenic liquid, and a first solid; drawing the vapor into a heat exchanger and the second cryogenic liquid and the first solid out of the separation vessel; cooling the vapor against a coolant through the heat exchanger, causing the vapor to form a third cryogenic liquid and a second solid, the second solid dissolving in the third cryogenic liquid; and combining the second cryogenic liquid and the first solid with the third cryogenic liquid, producing a final cooled slurry. In this manner, the cryogenic cooling is accomplished without fouling.
