Detection and analysis of ship emissions using single-particle mass spectrometry: A land-based field study in the port of rostock, Germany 使用单粒子质谱仪检测和分析船舶排放物:德国罗斯托克港陆地实地研究
IF 3.8 Q2 ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES Pub Date : 2024-10-28 DOI: 10.1016/j.aeaoa.2024.100302
The regulation of ship emissions has become more restrictive due to their significant impact on global air quality, particularly in coastal regions. According to the International Maritime Organization (IMO) regulations, current restrictions mainly limit the sulfur content of the fuel mass to 0.5 % and 0.1 % respectively. In compliance with these regulations, exhaust SO2 cleaning systems (scrubbers) and new low-sulfur fuels are increasingly used. For comprehensive monitoring of ship emissions, advanced measurement techniques are demanded. Our study reports on the results of a land-based field campaign conducted in the port of Rostock, Germany. The chosen location strategically positions the measurement setup to capture all incoming and outgoing ships passing within a distance of up to 2 km. Potential ship exhaust plumes are indicated by rapid changes in particle number and size distribution monitored by an optical particle sizer (OPS) and a scanning mobility particle sizer (SMPS). Additionally, single-particle mass spectrometry (SPMS) was used to qualitatively characterize ambient single-particles (0.2–2.5 μm) by their chemical signatures. In a one-week time span, the exhaust plumes of 73 ships were identified. The high sensitivity of SPMS to transition metals and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) in individual particles make it possible to distinguish between different marine fuels.
由于船舶排放对全球空气质量,特别是沿海地区的空气质量有重大影响,因此对船舶排放的监管变得更加严格。根据国际海事组织(IMO)的规定,目前的限制主要是将燃料中的硫含量分别限制在 0.5 % 和 0.1 %。根据这些规定,废气二氧化硫净化系统(洗涤器)和新型低硫燃料的使用越来越多。为了全面监测船舶排放,需要采用先进的测量技术。我们的研究报告介绍了在德国罗斯托克港进行的陆基现场活动的结果。我们选择的测量地点具有战略意义,可以捕捉到 2 公里范围内所有进出港船只。通过光学颗粒测定仪(OPS)和扫描迁移率颗粒测定仪(SMPS)监测颗粒数量和粒度分布的快速变化,显示潜在的船舶废气羽流。此外,还利用单颗粒质谱仪(SPMS)通过化学特征对环境中的单颗粒(0.2-2.5 μm)进行定性分析。在一周的时间内,共确定了 73 艘船舶的废气羽流。SPMS 对单个颗粒中的过渡金属和多环芳烃(PAH)具有高灵敏度,因此可以区分不同的海洋燃料。

Comparison of global air pollution impacts across horizontal resolutions 不同水平分辨率下全球空气污染影响的比较
IF 3.8 Q2 ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES Pub Date : 2024-10-26 DOI: 10.1016/j.aeaoa.2024.100303
The impact of ambient air pollution on human health, particularly fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and tropospheric ozone (O3), is a critical global concern. Atmospheric chemical transport models (CTMs) are widely used to predict air pollutant concentrations and assess associated health risks. However, there is a need to better understand how the horizontal resolution of these models influences their accuracy, especially in future assessments. In this study, we compared the performance of global low-resolution CTMs with high-resolution nested simulations for estimating O3 and PM2.5 concentrations. The models were validated against observational data to determine their accuracy across different spatial scales and to evaluate their suitability for future scenario assessments. Our findings demonstrate that while the nested-grid simulations improved the reproducibility of regional observations, especially in areas with complex topography or localized emissions, the overall global-scale performance of the model did not significantly benefit from higher resolution. Additionally, the differences in global health and agricultural impacts between low- and high-resolution simulations were minor and within the range of uncertainty typically associated with emission inventories and CTMs. However, for specific regional studies or policy applications, higher resolution may offer improved accuracy. Ultimately, the current low-spatial-resolution model provides sufficient accuracy for many global-scale applications, but the choice of resolution should be carefully considered depending on the specific objectives of the study especially in future scenario.
环境空气污染,尤其是细颗粒物(PM2.5)和对流层臭氧(O3)对人类健康的影响是全球关注的一个重要问题。大气化学传输模型(CTM)被广泛用于预测空气污染物浓度和评估相关的健康风险。然而,有必要更好地了解这些模型的水平分辨率如何影响其准确性,尤其是在未来的评估中。在这项研究中,我们比较了全球低分辨率 CTM 与高分辨率嵌套模拟在估计 O3 和 PM2.5 浓度方面的性能。这些模型与观测数据进行了验证,以确定它们在不同空间尺度上的准确性,并评估它们是否适合未来的情景评估。我们的研究结果表明,虽然嵌套网格模拟提高了区域观测的再现性,尤其是在地形复杂或局部排放的地区,但模型在全球范围内的整体表现并没有从更高的分辨率中明显受益。此外,低分辨率模拟与高分辨率模拟在全球健康和农业影响方面的差异较小,在排放清单和气候变异模型的典型不确定性范围内。不过,对于特定的区域研究或政策应用,更高的分辨率可能会提高准确性。归根结底,目前的低空间分辨率模型为许多全球尺度应用提供了足够的准确性,但分辨率的选择应根据研究的具体目标,尤其是未来情景进行仔细考虑。

Manifesting the hidden pollutants: Quantifying emissions and environmental impact of petroleum refinery on PM2.5 显现隐藏的污染物:量化石油炼制对 PM2.5 的排放和环境影响
IF 3.8 Q2 ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES Pub Date : 2024-10-25 DOI: 10.1016/j.aeaoa.2024.100300
This research thoroughly examined the emissions of primary fine particle and precursors of secondary particles (VOCs, SO2 and NOx) originating from the petroleum refinery operation. The central aim was to quantify the emission factors of fine particulate matter and analyze their spatial dispersion and source contributions, in order to evaluate their environmental impacts.
The VOCs emission measurement appeared that the wastewater treatment plant unit was the most significant source of VOCs emissions, with pentane, cyclopentane, and propane being the dominant VOCs species released. The study employed the secondary organic aerosol potential (SOAP), sulfur oxidation ratio (SOR), and nitrogen oxidation ratio (NOR) methodologies to calculate the emissions of secondary PM2.5. The combustion stacks were the principal contributor to secondary PM2.5 emissions, with SO2 being the predominant secondary PM2.5 precursor species contributing to fine particulate matter, accounting for 82.5% of the total secondary PM2.5 emissions. The overall emission factor for the refinery was determined to be 0.31 g secondary PM2.5 per kg of refined crude oil. Furthermore, the analysis indicated that the combustion stacks were the primary contributors to PM2.5 concentrations at all receptor sites, accounting for 64.4%–80.8% of the total contribution, followed by the wastewater treatment unit and storage tanks. The study underscored the importance of focusing on secondary PM2.5 precursor emissions to effectively reduce emissions and environmental concentrations of PM2.5, highlighting the potential for more effective management and mitigation strategies targeting these precursors.
这项研究全面考察了石油炼制过程中产生的一次细颗粒物和二次颗粒物前体物(挥发性有机化合物、二氧化硫和氮氧化物)的排放情况。VOCs 排放测量结果表明,污水处理厂装置是最主要的 VOCs 排放源,其中戊烷、环戊烷和丙烷是主要的 VOCs 排放物种。研究采用二次有机气溶胶潜能值(SOAP)、硫氧化比率(SOR)和氮氧化比率(NOR)方法来计算二次 PM2.5 的排放量。燃烧烟囱是二次 PM2.5 的主要排放源,二氧化硫是导致细颗粒物的主要二次 PM2.5 前体物种,占二次 PM2.5 排放总量的 82.5%。炼油厂的总体排放系数被确定为每公斤精炼原油 0.31 克二次 PM2.5。此外,分析表明,燃烧烟囱是所有受体点 PM2.5 浓度的主要来源,占总来源的 64.4%-80.8% ,其次是废水处理装置和储罐。这项研究强调了关注 PM2.5 的二次前体排放以有效减少 PM2.5 排放和环境浓度的重要性,突出了针对这些前体采取更有效的管理和减缓战略的潜力。

Quantifying particulate matter emission rates from naturally ventilated dairy buildings by considering roof opening contributions 通过考虑屋顶开口的贡献,量化自然通风乳制品建筑的颗粒物排放率
IF 3.8 Q2 ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES Pub Date : 2024-10-22 DOI: 10.1016/j.aeaoa.2024.100299
Roof openings are typically fitted to naturally ventilated dairy building (NVDB) for better ventilation but their impact on air pollutant emission calculations has not been fully considered. Particulate matter (PM) emission rate (ER) for NVDB rely on the total ventilation rate (VR), outdoor PM concentration and average indoor PM concentration sampled either under the roof (Roof Sampling) or in the cubicle area (Cubicle Sampling), which may show large deviations due to its spatiotemporal variation of PM concentrations and complex airflow patterns. This study utilised a novel ER calculation method (Joint Sampling) that computes the respective emission from the roof and sidewall openings by matching each outlet's VR and PM concentration. By year-round field measurements of PM2.5 and the total suspended particulates (TSP), results showed that annual average ERs of PM2.5 and TSP were 10.8 mg h−1 cow−1 and 45.7 mg h−1 cow−1 for Roof Sampling, 12.7 mg h−1 cow−1 and 40.7 mg h−1 cow−1 for Cubicle Sampling, and 11.7 mg h−1 cow−1 and 45.9 mg h−1 cow−1 for Joint Sampling. Considering the Joint Sampling results were relatively true, Roof Sampling exhibited a maximum underestimate of PM2.5 emissions of 20.8% when sidewall curtains were fully opened, whilst Cubicle Sampling demonstrated a maximum overestimate of TSP of 10.2% when the aperture was closed. Using Joint Sampling, the roof opening contributed 39.3% and 24.4% of the annual PM2.5 and TSP emissions. When sidewall openings are partially or fully closed, the Joint Sampling calculation is preferable to estimate the ER of PM.
自然通风奶牛场(NVDB)通常会安装屋顶开口,以提高通风效果,但尚未充分考虑屋顶开口对空气污染物排放计算的影响。自然通风奶牛场的颗粒物(PM)排放率(ER)取决于总通风率(VR)、室外 PM 浓度以及屋顶下(屋顶采样)或隔间内(隔间采样)采样的平均室内 PM 浓度,由于 PM 浓度的时空变化和复杂的气流模式,这些数据可能会出现较大偏差。本研究采用了一种新颖的 ER 计算方法(联合采样),通过匹配每个出口的 VR 和 PM 浓度,计算出屋顶和侧壁开口处各自的排放量。通过对 PM2.5 和总悬浮颗粒物(TSP)的全年实地测量,结果表明,屋顶采样法的 PM2.5 和 TSP 年均 ER 值分别为 10.8 毫克/小时-1 牛-1 和 45.7 毫克/小时-1 牛-1;隔间采样法的 PM2.5 和 TSP 年均 ER 值分别为 12.7 毫克/小时-1 牛-1 和 40.7 毫克/小时-1 牛-1;联合采样法的 PM2.5 和 TSP 年均 ER 值分别为 11.7 毫克/小时-1 牛-1 和 45.9 毫克/小时-1 牛-1。考虑到联合采样的结果相对真实,当侧壁窗帘完全打开时,屋顶采样显示 PM2.5 排放量的最大低估值为 20.8%,而当隔间采样显示开孔关闭时,TSP 的最大高估值为 10.2%。通过联合取样,屋顶开口分别占全年 PM2.5 和 TSP 排放量的 39.3% 和 24.4%。当侧壁开口部分或全部关闭时,联合取样计算方法更适合用于估算 PM 的 ER。

Regional and seasonal impact of hydrogen propulsion systems on potential contrail cirrus cover 氢推进系统对潜在卷云覆盖的区域和季节影响
IF 3.8 Q2 ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES Pub Date : 2024-10-05 DOI: 10.1016/j.aeaoa.2024.100298
The decarbonization of air transportation requires novel propulsion concepts in order to replace fossil kerosene powered gas turbines. Within various options, H2 based propulsion is one of the most promising candidates, at least for regional and short haul routes. However, despite the potential to reduce CO2 emissions to zero, those aircraft can still have a significant climate impact due to increased contrail formation caused by higher water emission when using H2 as a propellant. In order to understand potential changes in the climate impact of H2 powered air traffic, it is crucial to evaluate how the potential for contrail formation and the potential contrail cirrus cover would change under representative atmospheric conditions. To this end, we developed a tool which uses several years of meteorological reanalysis data (ERA-5 and MERRA-2) in combination with contrail formation conditions adjusted to H2 gas turbine and H2 Fuel Cell propulsion in order to investigate their regional and seasonal variation. Contrail formation conditions for three different propulsion settings (kerosene gas turbine, H2 gas turbine and H2 fuel cell) are calculated to obtain global statistics of potential contrail cover and potential contrail cirrus cover over 12 years. For H2 based propulsion contrails are more likely to form due to the increased water vapor emission. However, this does not necessarily translate into the climatically relevant potential for contrail cirrus formation. Focusing on three hot spots of regional air traffic, we find that the difference between kerosene and H2 scenarios has a strong systematic dependency on season, altitude and latitude. Maximum differences in potential contrail cirrus cover are found in the transition region from typically no-contrail to contrail forming conditions at a potential contrail cover around 50%. In contrast, less to no difference in potential contrail cirrus cover is found at very high (close to 100%) or rather low potential contrail cover. This study demonstrates, that the question whether H2 powered air traffic produces more climate relevant contrail cirrus can not be parameterized by a simple factor but rather strongly depends on the propulsion type, season, region and flight altitude.
航空运输的去碳化需要新的推进概念,以取代以化石煤油为动力的燃气轮机。在各种方案中,基于 H2 的推进技术是最有前途的候选方案之一,至少在支线和短途航线上是如此。然而,尽管这些飞机有可能将二氧化碳排放量减少到零,但由于使用 H2 作为推进剂时水排放量较高,会增加烟云的形成,因此仍会对气候产生重大影响。为了了解以 H2 为动力的空中交通对气候影响的潜在变化,关键是要评估在代表性大气条件下,烟云形成的可能性和潜在的烟云卷云覆盖率将如何变化。为此,我们开发了一种工具,利用数年的气象再分析数据(ERA-5 和 MERRA-2),结合根据 H2 燃气轮机和 H2 燃料电池推进调整的烟云形成条件,研究其区域和季节变化。计算了三种不同推进设置(煤油燃气轮机、H2 燃气轮机和 H2 燃料电池)下的烟云形成条件,以获得 12 年间潜在烟云覆盖率和潜在烟云卷云覆盖率的全球统计数据。由于水蒸气排放量增加,以 H2 为基础的推进装置更有可能形成烟云。然而,这并不一定转化为与气候相关的形成卷云的可能性。我们以三个区域航空交通热点为重点,发现煤油和 H2 方案之间的差异与季节、高度和纬度有很大的系统性关系。在从典型的无烟云到烟云形成条件的过渡区域,潜在烟云覆盖率约为 50%,潜在烟云卷云覆盖率的差异最大。相比之下,在非常高(接近 100%)或相当低的潜在烟云覆盖率条件下,潜在烟云卷积物覆盖率的差异较小甚至没有差异。这项研究表明,H2 动力空中交通是否会产生更多与气候相关的卷云并不能用一个简单的因素来衡量,而是在很大程度上取决于推进类型、季节、地区和飞行高度。

Mobile monitoring of air pollutant concentration in the park of Urumqi, China 中国乌鲁木齐公园空气污染物浓度的移动监测
IF 3.8 Q2 ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES Pub Date : 2024-10-01 DOI: 10.1016/j.aeaoa.2024.100297
The concentrations of PM2.5, PM10, O3 and NO2 in Urumqi People's Park were monitored by mobile monitoring in July and October 2023, and the temporal and spatial changes of pollutant concentrations in urban parks and their influencing factors were analyzed. The results show that park can effectively reduce PM and NO2 concentration, increase O3 concentration. PM concentration in the park was higher in the morning than the noon. O3 and NO2 concentration is lower in the morning than the noon. The concentration within the park was lower than that outside the park. The mitigative effect of pollutants in the park was better in summer than in autumn. The concentration of PM in the park showed a high value aggregation, and PM2.5 and PM10 showed the same spatial distribution in the high value cluster, and the pollution of both showed homology in summer. O3 and NO2 concentrations tend to accumulate at low value cluster. Pollutants are affected by the local environment. PM2.5 concentration is greatly affected by wind speed and distance from water, O3 concentration is greatly affected by temperature and average distance from road. The closer to the road, the higher the concentration of NO2. Attention should be paid to the landscape design of the buffer zone of 30–50 m with the high pollution area. This study can provide reference for park planning and design.
2023 年 7 月和 10 月,通过移动监测对乌鲁木齐市人民公园 PM2.5、PM10、O3 和 NO2 的浓度进行了监测,分析了城市公园污染物浓度的时空变化及其影响因素。结果表明,公园可有效降低 PM 和 NO2 浓度,提高 O3 浓度。公园内可吸入颗粒物浓度早晨高于中午。O3 和 NO2 浓度上午低于中午。公园内的浓度低于公园外。公园内污染物的缓解效果夏季好于秋季。公园内可吸入颗粒物浓度呈现高值聚集,PM2.5 和 PM10 在高值聚集区呈现相同的空间分布,且两者的污染在夏季呈现同源性。O3和NO2浓度在低值集群中呈聚集趋势。污染物受到当地环境的影响。PM2.5 浓度受风速和水域距离的影响较大,O3 浓度受气温和道路平均距离的影响较大。离道路越近,二氧化氮的浓度越高。应注意与高污染区 30-50 米缓冲带的景观设计。本研究可为公园规划设计提供参考。

Vehicle emission models alone are not sufficient to understand full impact of change in traffic signal timings 仅凭车辆排放模型不足以了解交通信号时间变化的全部影响
IF 3.8 Q2 ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES Pub Date : 2024-09-25 DOI: 10.1016/j.aeaoa.2024.100293
Few studies have considered the real-world impact of changes in traffic signal timings on air pollution and pedestrian exposure with most only drawing their conclusion from vehicle emission models alone. Here, we consider two distinct cycle timings at a junction in London, UK, model the impact using a traffic microsimulation and a NOx emissions model, and compare these results with NOx and other air pollution measurements collected during a two-week field study at the junction.
Our models predict that extending the cycle time leads to a 23% decrease in NOx emissions within a 15 m radius of the junction itself. When the wind direction was such that our sensors were downwind of the junction a 21% decrease in traffic and background-adjusted NOx concentrations were seen, suggesting that the intervention was successful. However, when the sensors were upwind of the junction, we observed an increase of 23% in adjusted NOx concentrations. Similar patterns were found for the other pollutants NO2, lung deposited surface area, black carbon and CO2 we measured. This indicates that meteorology was by far the greatest determinant of roadside concentrations during our two-week study period.
Looking at pedestrian exposure for pedestrians waiting to cross the road, we found that their NOx exposure increased by 46% as waiting times to cross the road increased and that potential small reductions in air pollution were offset by increases in waiting times on the main road.
The study demonstrates the need to go beyond assessing the impact of hyper-local traffic interventions on vehicle emissions. Real-world trials over extended periods are required to evaluate the impact of meteorology and changes to air pollution concentrations and pedestrian exposures.
很少有研究考虑过交通信号时间变化对空气污染和行人暴露的实际影响,大多数研究仅从车辆排放模型中得出结论。在这里,我们考虑了英国伦敦一个路口的两种不同的周期时间,使用交通微观模拟和氮氧化物排放模型对影响进行建模,并将这些结果与在该路口进行的为期两周的实地研究中收集的氮氧化物和其他空气污染测量结果进行比较。当风向使我们的传感器位于路口的下风向时,交通流量和背景调整后的氮氧化物浓度下降了 21%,这表明干预措施是成功的。然而,当传感器位于路口上风向时,我们观察到调整后的氮氧化物浓度增加了 23%。我们测量的其他污染物二氧化氮、肺沉积表面积、黑碳和二氧化碳也发现了类似的模式。这表明,在我们为期两周的研究期间,气象因素是路边浓度的最大决定因素。在观察行人过马路的情况时,我们发现,随着过马路等待时间的增加,行人的氮氧化物暴露量增加了 46%,空气污染的潜在小幅减少被主干道上等待时间的增加所抵消。这项研究表明,除了评估超局部交通干预措施对车辆排放的影响外,还需要进行长期的实际试验,以评估气象条件和空气污染浓度变化以及行人暴露的影响。

Insights into chemical aging of urban aerosols over Delhi, India 对印度德里上空城市气溶胶化学老化的见解
IF 3.8 Q2 ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES Pub Date : 2024-09-12 DOI: 10.1016/j.aeaoa.2024.100296
Atmospheric particles can undergo aging as they are transported over long distances and mix with particles from other sources. This can lead to the accumulation of pollutants and the formation of complex aerosol mixtures with diverse chemical and physical properties. To investigate the process of aging in ambient atmosphere, 24h sampling of PM2.5 aerosol particles on Quartz microfiber filter with a tin substrate was carried out from November 2020 to March 2021 at CSIR-National Physical Laboratory, New Delhi (28°38'10″ N and 77°10′17" E), using fine particle sampler. Based on the observations of weather and meteorological parameters, a few episodic cases have been selected, and samples were analyzed at bulk and individual particle level. The objective of the present study is to investigate the aging characteristics of aerosols, enabling us to understand the mixing of aerosols (at both bulk and individual particle levels) and the variation in fresh and deformed (aged with other species) graphitic content in the episodic cases. The Raman Spectroscopy technique employed measures the intensity of graphitic (G band; around 1580 cm−1) and disordered graphitic (D band; around 1320 cm−1) content of aerosols. Individual particle microscopic observations reveal the occurrence of open chain fractals of black carbon in variable monomer sizes, sometimes agglomerated with metals like Cu, Cr, Ca etc., along with the presence of S- rich and organic aerosols while the Raman Spectrum (bulk sample analysis) highlights graphitic and disordered (when graphite interacts with other chemical species) graphitic intensities. Comparing the intensities of heavy haze and moderate haze with non-haze days (for comparison purpose, March 23, 2021 with the lowest PM2.5 concentration ∼ 62 μg/m3, has been considered as a non-haze day), it was observed that the intensities recorded on haze days were 45 to 200 times higher for the G band and 43 to 93 times higher for the D band; while for moderate haze days, the intensities were 4 to 61 times higher for the G band and 2 to 29 times higher for the D band. These findings suggest chemical processing of BC during haze days.
大气颗粒物在经过长途运输并与其他来源的颗粒物混合后会发生老化。这可能导致污染物的积累,并形成具有不同化学和物理特性的复杂气溶胶混合物。为了研究环境大气中的老化过程,2020 年 11 月至 2021 年 3 月期间,在新德里(北纬 28°38'10″,东经 77°10′17")的 CSIR 国家物理实验室,使用细颗粒采样器对锡基石英微纤维过滤器上的 PM2.5 气溶胶颗粒进行了 24 小时采样。根据对天气和气象参数的观测,选取了一些偶发事件,并对样本进行了大颗粒和单个颗粒分析。本研究的目的是调查气溶胶的老化特征,使我们能够了解气溶胶的混合情况(在体积和单个颗粒层面)以及偶发案例中新鲜和变形(与其他物种一起老化)石墨含量的变化。采用拉曼光谱技术测量气溶胶中石墨(G 带,约 1580 厘米-1)和无序石墨(D 带,约 1320 厘米-1)含量的强度。对单个颗粒的显微镜观察显示,存在单体大小不一的开链分形黑碳,有时与铜、铬、钙等金属聚集在一起,同时还存在富含 S 的有机气溶胶,而拉曼光谱(大量样品分析)则突出显示了石墨和无序(当石墨与其他化学物质相互作用时)石墨的强度。将重度灰霾和中度灰霾天的强度与非灰霾天的强度进行比较(为便于比较,2021 年 3 月 23 日的 PM2.5 浓度最低为 62 μg/m3 以下,被视为非灰霾天),发现灰霾天记录到的 G 波段强度高出 45 至 200 倍,D 波段强度高出 43 至 93 倍;而在中度灰霾天,G 波段强度高出 4 至 61 倍,D 波段强度高出 2 至 29 倍。这些研究结果表明,在雾霾天,对 BC 进行了化学处理。

Tracing N2O from dairy processing sludge amended soil with visualizing microscale heterogeneity of NH3 and pH (Short Communication) 通过可视化 NH3 和 pH 的微观异质性,追踪乳制品加工污泥改良土壤中的 N2O(短期通讯)
IF 3.8 Q2 ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES Pub Date : 2024-08-01 DOI: 10.1016/j.aeaoa.2024.100283

Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from organic waste and animal slurry contribute to climate change and endanger our ecosystems. For the development of efficient mitigation technologies, in-depth knowledge of emission processes is needed. This can be obtained by non-destructive, temporal measurements of in-situ soil profiles and the transformation of ammonium (NH4+) during events of emissions. Planar optode imaging is a non-destructive measuring method that can be used to visualize spatiotemporal changes of ammonia (NH3) and pH in soil systems. In this study, soil amended with dairy processing sludge (DPS) was incubated in static chambers for 23 days, and GHG emissions, NH3 concentrations and pH in the soil were measured simultaneously over time. The aim was to investigate the potential of applying different planar optodes to provide information that gives insight into processes of N2O emissions. The DPS was applied to the soil as a surface layer (SL), with untreated soil as a control (CK). We were able to measure N2O emissions while monitoring spatiotemporal changes of soil pH and NH3 concentrations. The visualized microscale heterogeneity of the soil contributed to a better understanding of N2O emission processes. While technical challenges (e.g., humidity sensitivity of the NH3 optode and airtightness of the chambers) still need to be overcome, the method is a promising non-destructive method to study soil processes after application of different types of soil amendments.

有机废物和动物粪便排放的一氧化二氮(N2O)会导致气候变化,并危及我们的生态系统。要开发高效的减缓技术,就必须深入了解排放过程。这可以通过对原位土壤剖面和排放过程中铵(NH4+)的转化进行非破坏性的时间测量来获得。平面光电成像是一种非破坏性测量方法,可用于观察土壤系统中氨(NH3)和 pH 值的时空变化。在这项研究中,用乳品加工污泥(DPS)改良过的土壤在静态箱中培养了 23 天,并同时测量了土壤中温室气体排放量、NH3 浓度和 pH 值。目的是研究应用不同的平面光栅提供信息的潜力,以便深入了解一氧化二氮的排放过程。DPS 作为表层(SL)应用于土壤,未经处理的土壤作为对照(CK)。在监测土壤 pH 值和 NH3 浓度时空变化的同时,我们还测量了 N2O 的排放量。可视化的土壤微尺度异质性有助于更好地了解一氧化二氮的排放过程。虽然技术上的挑战(如 NH3 光学传感器的湿度灵敏度和试验室的气密性)仍有待克服,但该方法是研究施用不同类型土壤改良剂后土壤过程的一种很有前途的非破坏性方法。

Distribution assessment and source apportionment of particulate bound-PAHs in indoor air of south Asian precinct using IDW and PMF receptor model: A comprehensive study 利用 IDW 和 PMF 受体模型对南亚地区室内空气中的颗粒物结合-PAHs 进行分布评估和来源分配:综合研究
IF 3.8 Q2 ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES Pub Date : 2024-08-01 DOI: 10.1016/j.aeaoa.2024.100288

PAHs have been recognised as a major menace to living-beings as well as environment. Several researchers have extensively claimed regarding death-defying nature of PAHs and its derivatives. However, these studies have only considered the ambient air which is a composition of automobile exhausts, industrial emissions etc. as major source of harmful air pollutants. Indoor air quality (IAQ) is an overlooked area since, although many researchers in recent times have been working on the chemistry and composition of IAQ, yet, source determination and nature of pollutants is still a comprehensive area to be explored. With the above stated objective, the present study emphases on 16 USEPA specified PAHs which are allied with particulate matter. Both PM as well as PAHs are some very common and treacherous chemical contaminant accountable for more than a million death globally. PAHs are organic compound which are either attached to PM of various sizes or can exist in gaseous form. Current work precises the concentration of PAHs associated with fine PM i.e., PM2.5 in indoor environment of south Asian precinct, further, using receptor modelling technique for determination indoor sources responsible for the emanation of specific PAHs. The toxicity equivalent quotient i.e., TEQ evaluated in the study demonstrations that the highest toxicity among all PAHs is exhibited by BaP followed by InP, BKF, BbF. Seasonal variations in the concentration of PAHs and their respective sources were also established using PMF models, which depicted the domination of 3-ring PAHs in winter with 42% contribution in outdoors, whereas, four-ring PAHs dominion in indoors. Similarly, in summer two-ring accounted for 35% in outdoors, and three-ring PAHs contributed highest with 26.8% in indoors. In monsoon PAHs with two-ring contributed highest with 45.2% in outdoors, whereas, 2-ring PAHs contributed 38.3% in indoors. Also, IDW mapping and molecular diagnostic ratio were assessed for an intense study on distribution of PAHs in the locality and the source apportionment purpose respectively. To the best of our knowledge, the study is first of its kind in this part of the world where, majority of the countries are either developing or under-developed and hence at greater risk to the noxious effects which are often overlooked. The study will provide a clear picture regarding the indoor sources of the PAHs and further help the further professionals to build a credible and pragmatic mitigation technique accordingly.

多环芳烃已被公认为是对生物和环境的一大威胁。一些研究人员广泛声称 PAHs 及其衍生物具有致命的性质。然而,这些研究只考虑了环境空气,而环境空气由汽车尾气、工业废气等组成,是有害空气污染物的主要来源。室内空气质量(IAQ)是一个被忽视的领域,因为尽管近来许多研究人员一直在研究室内空气质量的化学成分,但污染物的来源确定和性质仍然是一个有待全面探索的领域。基于上述目标,本研究重点关注美国环保局指定的 16 种与颗粒物相关的多环芳烃。可吸入颗粒物和多环芳烃都是一些非常常见和危险的化学污染物,在全球造成了超过一百万人的死亡。多环芳烃是一种有机化合物,既可以附着在不同大小的可吸入颗粒物上,也可以以气态形式存在。目前的研究工作对南亚地区室内环境中与细颗粒 PM(即 PM2.5)相关的多环芳烃浓度进行了精确测定,并进一步利用受体模型技术确定了造成特定多环芳烃排放的室内来源。研究中评估的毒性当量商(TEQ)表明,在所有 PAHs 中,BaP 的毒性最高,其次是 InP、BKF 和 BbF。利用 PMF 模型还确定了多环芳烃浓度的季节性变化及其各自的来源,结果表明,冬季室外多环芳烃以三环为主,占 42%,而室内多环芳烃以四环为主。同样,夏季二环 PAHs 在室外占 35%,三环 PAHs 在室内占 26.8%。在季风季节,二环 PAHs 在室外的比例最高,为 45.2%,而二环 PAHs 在室内的比例为 38.3%。此外,为了深入研究多环芳烃在当地的分布情况和来源划分,还分别对 IDW 图谱和分子诊断比率进行了评估。据我们所知,这项研究是世界上首次在这一地区进行的同类研究,因为该地区大多数国家都是发展中国家或欠发达国家,因此受有害影响的风险更大,而这些影响往往被忽视。这项研究将为多环芳烃的室内来源提供一个清晰的画面,并进一步帮助专业人员相应地建立一个可靠和实用的缓解技术。
