Plastic pyrolysis oil, which can be produced with similar properties as diesel fuel (plastic diesel), can be used as an alternative to mineral diesel (ULSD) to run a diesel engine. This presents a potential method for recycling waste plastic. Typically plastic diesel is blended with mineral diesel, and oxygenated fuel additives such as ethers added to improve resulting fuel properties.
Existing trajectory studies have emphasised large-airway indices, but chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) might originate in smaller airways. This study aimed to investigate mid-to-small-airway function trajectories, their associated factors, and COPD risk.
