Ozone sensitivity regimes vary at different heights in the planetary boundary layer. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 944:173712.

Abstract
The sensitivity of tropospheric ozone (O3) to its precursors volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and nitrogen oxides (NOX) determines the emission reduction strategy for O3 mitigation. Due to the lack of comprehensive vertical measurements of VOCs, the vertical distribution of O3 sensitivity regimes has not been well understood. O3 precursor sensitivity determined by ground-level measurements has been generally used to guide O3 control strategy. Here, to precisely diagnose O3 sensitivity regimes at different heights in the planetary boundary layer (PBL), we developed a vertical measurement system based on an unmanned aerial vehicle platform to conduct comprehensive vertical measurements of VOCs, NOX and other relevant parameters. Our results suggest that the O3 precursor sensitivity shifts from a VOC-limited regime at the ground to a NOX-limited regime at upper layers, indicating that the ground-level O3 sensitivity cannot represent the situation of the whole PBL. We also found that the state-of-the-art photochemical model tends to underestimate oxygenated VOCs at upper layers, resulting in overestimation of the degree of VOCs-limited regime. Therefore, thorough vertical measurements of VOCs to accurately diagnose O3 precursor sensitivity is in urgent need for the development of effective O3 control strategies.

Comprehensive measurement of carbonyls in Lhasa, Tibetan Plateau: Implications for strong atmospheric oxidation capacity. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 948:174626. [PMID: 38997034 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.174626] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2024] [Revised: 06/22/2024] [Accepted: 07/07/2024] [Indexed: 07/14/2024]
Abstract
Carbonyls are ubiquitous in the troposphere and play a crucial role in atmospheric oxidation capacity (AOC), particularly in photochemistry-active regions such as the Tibetan Plateau (TP). However, the composition and evolution of carbonyls over the TP is still poorly understood due to a lack of comprehensive observations and modelling. Here, we conducted an intensive field measurement of 37 carbonyls and their precursors at a suburban site in Lhasa during summer 2022. Markedly higher levels of carbonyls (7.24 ± 3.83 ppbv) were found during ozone pollution episodes, with 36 % higher than those during non-episodes. Formaldehyde was the most abundant carbonyl (38 %), which primarily originating from photochemical secondary formations. Simulations using the Rapid adaptive Optimization Model for Atmospheric Chemistry (ROMAC) indicated strong AOC in Lhasa, with the daytime maximum of ·OH and ·HO2 of 9.8 × 106 and 4.2 × 108 molecules cm-3, respectively, which were even higher than that in most of the megacities in China. Notably, AOC significantly enhanced with the increasing carbonyls during the episodes, with the concentrations of ·OH and ·HO2 were boosted 21 % and 67 % than those during non-episodes, respectively. Budget analysis revealed that the ·HO2 + NO (88 %) and ·OH + VOC (74 %) pathways dominated the generation and loss of ·OH, respectively. And for ·HO2, they were ·RO2 + NO (67 %) and ·HO2 + NO (83 %). This study provides valuable insights into the strong AOC in the ecologically-fragile and climate-sensitive TP region, and highlighted the crucial role of anthropogenic-biogenic interactions in the active photochemistry of TP.

Observation-Based Diagnostics of Reactive Nitrogen Recycling through HONO Heterogenous Production: Divergent Implications for Ozone Production and Emission Control. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY 2024; 58:11554-11567. [PMID: 38885439 PMCID: PMC11223480 DOI: 10.1021/acs.est.3c07967] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/25/2023] [Revised: 06/03/2024] [Accepted: 06/04/2024] [Indexed: 06/20/2024]
Abstract
Understanding of nitrous acid (HONO) production is crucial to photochemical studies, especially in polluted environments like eastern China. In-situ measurements of gaseous and particulate compositions were conducted at a rural coastal site during the 2018 spring Ozone Photochemistry and Export from China Experiment (OPECE). This data set was applied to investigate the recycling of reactive nitrogen through daytime heterogeneous HONO production. Although HONO levels increase during agricultural burning, analysis of the observation data does not indicate more efficient HONO production by agricultural burning aerosols than other anthropogenic aerosols. Box and 1-D modeling analyses reveal the intrinsic relationships between nitrogen dioxide (NO2), particulate nitrate (pNO3), and nitric acid (HNO3), resulting in comparable agreement between observed and simulated HONO concentrations with any one of the three heterogeneous HONO production mechanisms, photosensitized NO2 conversion on aerosols, photolysis of pNO3, and conversion from HNO3. This finding underscores the uncertainties in the mechanistic understanding and quantitative parametrizations of daytime heterogeneous HONO production pathways. Furthermore, the implications for reactive nitrogen recycling, ozone (O3) production, and O3 control strategies vary greatly depending on the HONO production mechanism. On a regional scale, the conversion of HONO from pNO3 can drastically enhance O3 production, while the conversion from NO2 can reduce O3 sensitivity to NOx changes in polluted eastern China.

Abstract
Consumed VOCs are the compounds that have reacted to form ozone and secondary organic aerosol (SOA) in the atmosphere. An approach that can apportion the contributions of primary sources and reactions to the consumed VOCs was developed in this study and applied to hourly VOCs data from June to August 2022 measured in Shijiazhuang, China. The results showed that petrochemical industries (36.9 % and 51.7 %) and oxidation formation (20.6 % and 35.6 %) provided the largest contributions to consumed VOCs and OVOCs during the study period, whereas natural gas (5.0 % and 7.6 %) and the mixed source of liquefied petroleum gas and solvent use (3.1 % and 4.2 %) had the relatively low contributions. Compared to the non-O3 pollution (NOP) period, the contributions of oxidation formation, petrochemical industries, and the mixed source of gas evaporation and vehicle emissions to the consumed VOCs during the O3 pollution (OP) period increased by 2.8, 3.8, and 9.3 times, respectively. The differences in contributions of liquified petroleum gas and solvent use, natural gas, and combustion sources to consumed VOCs between OP and NOP periods were relatively small. Transport of petrochemical industries emissions from the southeast to the study site was the primary consumed pathway for VOCs emitted from petrochemical industries.

Abstract
Evaporative emission is an important source of vehicle pollutant emission and volatile organic compounds (VOCs), causing serious environmental pollution. Carbon canisters are used to store fuel vapor in evaporative emission control (EVAP) system, but canisters are prone to saturation, leading to the direct release of fuel vapor into the atmosphere. Therefore, accurate estimation of fuel vapor generation is crucial for EVAP system. Gasoline evaporation rate is mainly influenced by vapor-liquid interface area, gasoline saturated vapor pressure, filling level and temperature. The quantitative relation between different parameters and gasoline evaporation rate has rarely been reported, and a gasoline evaporative emission estimation model suitable for China needs to be proposed urgently. In this study, gasoline evaporative emission tests have been carried out in VT-SHED, and the effects of vapor-liquid interface area, filling level and temperature on gasoline evaporative emissions have been analyzed under the premise of consistent gasoline temperature and ambient temperature. Some valuable conclusions are obtained. The results show that different from expectation, gasoline evaporative emissions are not positively correlated with the vapor-liquid interface area. There is an approximately exponential relationship between the headspace volume and gasoline evaporative emissions. The widely used Reddy equation and Hata equation underestimate the gasoline vapor generation in China. Based on China VI test program and gasoline, accurate estimation of mass transfer coefficient has been conducted, and a new semi-empirical estimation model for vapor generation has been proposed. The model can accurately estimate the fuel evaporation of vehicles in China, providing guidance for the matching and optimization of EVAP system.

Abstract
This study presents the measurement of photochemical precursors during the lockdown period from January 23, 2020, to March 14, 2020, in Chengdu in response to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. To derive the lockdown impact on air quality, the observations are compared to the equivalent periods in the last 2 years. An observation-based model is used to investigate the atmospheric oxidation capacity change during lockdown. OH, HO2, and RO2 concentrations are simulated, which are elevated by 42, 220, and 277%, respectively, during the lockdown period, mainly due to the reduction in nitrogen oxides (NOx). However, the radical turnover rates, i.e., OH oxidation rate L(OH) and local ozone production rate P(O3), which determine the secondary intermediates formation and O3 formation, only increase by 24 and 48%, respectively. Therefore, the oxidation capacity increases slightly during lockdown, which is partly attributed to unchanged alkene concentrations. During the lockdown, alkene ozonolysis seems to be a significant radical primary source due to the elevated O3 concentrations. This unique data set during the lockdown period highlights the importance of controlling alkene emission to mitigate secondary pollution formation in Chengdu and may also be applicable in other regions of China given an expected NOx reduction due to the rapid transformation to electrified fleets in the future.

Abstract
The purification of oxygenated volatile organic compounds VOCs (OVOCs), important precursors of ozone and particulate matters, has triggered intensive research interests. UiO-66 with high photocatalytic activity have shown great potential. However, the lack of active sites severely limited the trapping and degradation of OVOCs. Herein, reo-UiO-66 with increased specific surface area, hierarchical porous structure and tunable acidic/basic sites was synthesized by simply adding water as the modulator. XRD, TGA and FTIR results confirmed the formation of reo-defects, which significantly affected the surface hydrophilicity and active sites of UiO-66. The adsorption of Lewis acidic acetaldehyde was enhanced by 265 times with coordinative unsaturated Zr acting as the dominant adsorption sites. The degradation efficiency of typical OVOCs (acetaldehyde and acetone) increased from 0% and 25% to 50% and 73%, respectively. This work provided a facile method to modulate the micro-environment in MOFs for the efficient capture and catalytic purification of OVOCs.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 467:133666.

Abstract
Daily use of passenger vehicles leads to considerable emission of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which are key precursors to the ground-level ozone pollution. While evaporative and tailpipe emission of VOCs from the passenger vehicles can be eliminated largely, or even completely, by electrification, VOCs emission from the use of coatings in auto-repair is unavoidable and has long been ignored. Here, we present for the first time, to the best of our knowledge, a comprehensive investigation on the emission factors and process-specified characteristics of VOCs from auto-repair painting, based on field measurements over 15 representative auto-repair workshops in the Pearl-River-Delta area, China. Replacement of solvent-borne coatings with water-borne counterparts, which was only achieved partially in the Basecoat step but not in the Putty, Primer and Clearcoat steps, could reduce the per automobile VOCs emission from 756.5 to 489.6 g and the per automobile ozone formation potential (OFP) from 2776.5 to 1666.4 g. Implementation of exhaust after-treatment led to a further reduction of the per automobile VOCs emission to 340.9 g, which is still ca. 42% higher than that from the state-of-art painting processes for the manufacture of passenger vehicles. According to the analysis of VOCs compositions, the Putty process was dominated by the emission of styrene, while Primer, Basecoat (solvent-borne) and Clearcoat steps were all characterized by the emission of n-butyl acetate and xylenes. By contrast, water-borne Basecoat step showed a prominent emission of n-amyl alcohol. Notably, for the full painting process to repair an automobile, n-butyl acetate emerged as the most abundant species in the VOCs emission, whereas xylenes contributed most significantly to the OFP. Scenario analysis suggested that reducing VOCs contents in the coatings, as well as improving the after-treatment efficiency, were highly potential solutions for effective reduction of VOCs emission from auto-repair. Our study contributes to an update of industrial inventories of VOCs emission, and may provide valuable insights for reducing VOCs emission and OFPs from the auto-repair industry.

Abstract
Observation-based method for O3 formation sensitivity research is an important tool to analyze the causes of ground-level O3 pollution, which has broad application potentials in determining the O3 pollution formation mechanism and developing prevention and control strategies. This paper outlined the development history of research on O3 formation sensitivity based on observational methods, described the principle and applicability of the methodology, summarized the relative application results in China and provided recommendations on the prevention and control of O3 pollution in China based on relevant study results, and finally pointed out the shortcomings and future development prospects in this field in China. The overview study showed that the O3 formation sensitivity in some urban areas in China in recent years presented a gradual shifting tendency from the VOC-limited regime to the transition regime or the NOx-limited regime due to the implementation of the O3 precursors emission reduction policies; O3 pollution control strategies and precursor control countermeasures should be formulated based on local conditions and the dynamic control capability of O3 pollution control measures should be improved. There are still some current deficiencies in the study field in China. Therefore, it is recommended that a stereoscopic monitoring network for atmospheric photochemical components should be further constructed and improved; the atmospheric chemical mechanisms should be vigorously developed, and standardized methods for determining the O3 formation sensitivity should be established in China in the near future.

Pollution characteristics, source appointment and environmental effect of oxygenated volatile organic compounds in Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area: Implication for air quality management. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 919:170836. [PMID: 38346658 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.170836] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2023] [Revised: 01/24/2024] [Accepted: 02/07/2024] [Indexed: 02/17/2024]
Abstract
Same as other bay areas, the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA) is also suffering atmospheric composite pollution. Even a series of atmospheric environment management policies have been conducted to win the "blue sky defense battle", the atmospheric secondary pollutants (e.g., O3) originated from oxygenated volatile organic compounds (OVOCs) still threaten the air quality in GBA. However, there lacks a systematic summary on the emission, formation, pollution and environmental effects of OVOCs in this region for further air quality management. This review focused on the researches related to OVOCs in GBA, including their pollution characteristics, detection methods, source distributions, secondary formations, and impacts on the atmosphere. Pollution profile of OVOCs in GBA revealed that the concentration percentage among total VOCs from Guangzhou and Dongguan cities exceeded 50 %, while methanol, formaldehyde, acetone, and acetaldehyde were the top four highest concentrated OVOCs. The detection technique on regional atmospheric OVOCs (e.g., oxygenated organic molecules (OOMs)) underwent an evolution of off-line derivatization method, on-line spectroscopic method and on-line mass spectrometry method. The OVOCs in GBA were mainly from primary emissions (up to 80 %), including vehicle emissions and biomass combustion. The anthropogenic alkenes and aromatics in urban area, and natural isoprene in rural area also made a significant contribution to the secondary emission (e.g., photochemical formation) of OVOCs. About 20 % in average of ROx radicals was produced from photolysis of formaldehyde in comparison with O3, nitrous acid and rest OVOCs, while the reaction between OVOCs and free radical accelerated the NOx-O3 cycle, contributing to 15 %-60 % cumulative formation of O3 in GBA. Besides, the heterogeneous reactions of dicarbonyls generated 21 %-53 % of SOA. This review also provided suggestions for future research on OVOCs in terms of regional observation, analytical method and mechanistic study to support the development of a control and management strategy on OVOCs in GBA and China.

Abstract
In recent years, commercial air transport has increased considerably. However, the compositions and source profiles of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted from aircraft are still not clear. In this study, the characteristics of VOCs (including oxygenated VOCs (OVOCs)) emitted from airport sources were measured at Shenzhen Bao'an International Airport. The results showed that the compositions and proportions of VOC species showed significant differences as the aircraft operating state changed. OVOCs were the dominant species and accounted for 63.17%, 58.44%, and 51.60% of the total VOC mass concentration during the taxiing, approach, and take-off stages. Propionaldehyde and acetone were the main OVOCs, and dichloromethane and 1,2-dichloroethane were the main halohydrocarbons. Propane had the highest proportion among all alkanes, while toluene and benzene were the predominant aromatic hydrocarbons. Compared with the source profiles of VOCs from construction machinery, the proportions of halogenated hydrocarbons and alkanes emitted from aircraft were significantly higher, as were those of propionaldehyde and acetone. OVOCs were still the dominant VOC species in aircraft emissions, and their calculated ozone formation potential (OFP) was much higher than that of other VOC species at all stages of aircraft operations. Acetone, propionaldehyde, formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, and ethylene were the greatest contributors to ozone production. This study comprehensively measured the distribution characteristics of VOCs, and its results will aid in the construction of a source profile inventory of VOCs emitted from aircraft sources in real atmospheric environments.

Atmospheric oxidation capacity and O 3 formation in a coastal city of southeast China: Results from simulation based on four-season observation. J Environ Sci (China) 2024; 136:68-80.

Abstract
The pollution of atmospheric ozone in China shows an obvious upward trend in the past decade. However, the studies on the atmospheric oxidation capacity and O3 formation in four seasons in the southeastern coastal region of China with the rapid urbanization remain limited. Here, a four-season field observation was carried out in a coastal city of southeast China, using an observation-based model combining with the Master Chemical Mechanism, to explore the atmospheric oxidation capacity (AOC), radical chemistry, O3 formation pathways and sensitivity. The results showed that the average net O3 production rate (14.55 ppbv/hr) in summer was the strongest, but the average O3 concentrations in autumn was higher. The AOC and ROx levels presented an obvious seasonal pattern with the maximum value in summer, while the OH reactivity in winter was the highest with an average value of 22.75 sec-1. The OH reactivity was dominated by oxygenated VOCs (OVOCs) (30.6%-42.8%), CO (23.2%-26.8%), NO2 (13.6%-22.0%), and alkenes (8.4%-12.5%) in different seasons. HONO photolysis dominated OH primary source on daytime in winter, while in other seasons, HONO photolysis in the morning and ozone photolysis in the afternoon contributed mostly. Sensitivity analysis indicated that O3 production was controlled by VOCs in spring, autumn and winter, but a VOC-limited and NOx-limited regime in summer, and alkene and aromatic species were the major controlling factors to O3 formation. Overall, the study characterized the atmospheric oxidation capacity and elucidated the controlling factors for O3 production in the coastal area with the rapid urbanization in China.

Abstract
Oxygenated volatile organic compounds (OVOCs) play important roles in tropospheric chemistry, regulating the oxidation capacity and ozone (O3) formation potential of the atmosphere. However, the evolution of OVOCs composition during vertical transport from the near surface to the upper atmosphere layer and the roles of OVOCs in the alpine atmospheric O3 formation are still poorly understood. In this study, we investigated the carbonyl compounds, the most important chemical group of OVOCs, and other gaseous pollutants simultaneously collected at the top (2060 m a.s.l, Top) and the foot (402 m a.s.l, Foot) of Mt. Hua in August 2020. The average concentrations of the total quantified carbonyl compounds (∑carbonyls) at the Top and Foot were 16.05 ± 3.69 and 15.32 ± 5.63 ppbv, respectively. Acetone was the most abundant carbonyl (4.19 ± 1.01 ppbv) at the Top, followed by formaldehyde and n-Nonanal, accounting for ∼58.8 % of ∑carbonyls, while formaldehyde (5.40 ± 2.26 ppbv), acetone, and acetaldehyde were the three most abundant species at the Foot, accounting for 64.7 % of ∑carbonyls. The n-Nonanal, acetone and acetaldehyde showed positive correlations between the Top and Foot during daytime, confirming the vertical transport of carbonyls from the foot to the top of Mt. Hua under the influence of valley winds. The direct emissions from vegetation, transport processes of anthropogenic emissions and photochemical oxidation contributed significantly to the measured carbonyls at the Top, especially for acetone. Formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, glyoxal, and methylglyoxal were the most important contributors to the O3 generation in Mt. Hua. This study could advance our understanding of the vertical distribution of the carbonyls and the effects on O3 formation in the alpine region of China.

Abstract
Carbonyl compounds are ubiquitous and play vital roles in tropospheric photochemistry and oxidation capacity, particularly affecting radical cycling and ozone formation. An enhanced method based on ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography and electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry was developed to simultaneously quantify 47 carbonyl compounds with carbon (C) numbers from 1 to 13. Applying this new method to samples collected at ground and ship-borne field campaigns, we investigated the abundance, characteristic distribution, and photochemical activity of carbonyl species in the coastal atmosphere of Hong Kong. The total concentration of detected carbonyls ranged from 9.1 to 32.7 ppbv and exhibited distinct spatial variability. In addition to the usual abundant carbonyl species (formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, and acetone), aliphatic saturated aldehydes with C ≥ 5 (particularly hexaldehyde and nonanaldehyde), and di‑carbonyls, exhibit significant abundance and photochemical reactivity in the coastal site and on the sea. The measured carbonyls could contribute to an estimated peroxyl radical formation rate of 1.88-8.43 ppb/h via OH oxidation and photolysis, greatly enhancing oxidation capacity and radical cycling. The ozone formation potential (OFP) estimated from the maximum incremental reactivity (MIR) was dominated (69 %-82 %) by formaldehyde and acetaldehyde, with significant contribution (4 %-13 %) from di‑carbonyls. Furthermore, another dozens of long-chain carbonyls without MIR values, which were typically below detection or not included in the conventional analytical method, would increase the ozone formation rate by an additional 2 %-33 %. Additionally, the glyoxal, methylglyoxal, benzaldehyde and other α, β-unsaturated aldehydes also exhibited considerable contribution to secondary organic aerosol (SOA) formation potential. This study highlights the importance of various reactive carbonyls in the atmospheric chemistry of urban and coastal regions. The newly developed method can effectively characterize more carbonyl compounds and advance our understanding of their roles in photochemical air pollution.

Abstract
Industrial parks have more complex O3 formation mechanisms due to a higher concentration and more dense emission of precursors. This study establishes an artificial neural network (ANN) model with good performance by expanding the moment and concentration changes of pollutants into general variables of meteorological factors and concentrations of pollutants. Finally, the O3 formation rules and concentration response to the changes of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) was explored. The results showed that the studied area belonged to the NOx-sensitive regime and the sensitivity was strongly affected by relative humidity (RH) and pressure (P). The concentration of O3 tends to decrease with a higher P, lower temperature (Temp), and medium to low RH when nitric oxide (NO) is added. Conversely, at medium P, high Temp, and high RH, the addition of nitrogen dioxide (NO2) leads to a larger decrease capacity in O3 concentration. More importantly, there is a local reachable maximum incremental reactivity (MIRL) at each certain VOCs concentration level which linearly increased with VOCs. The general maximum incremental reactivity (MIR) may lead to a significant overestimation of the attainable O3 concentration in NOx-sensitive regimes. The results can significantly support the local management strategies for O3 and the precursors control.

Examination of long-time aging process on volatile organic compounds emitted from solid fuel combustion in a rural area of China. CHEMOSPHERE 2023; 333:138957. [PMID: 37201604 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2023.138957] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/08/2023] [Revised: 05/12/2023] [Accepted: 05/15/2023] [Indexed: 05/20/2023]
Abstract
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted from solid fuels combustion (e.g., biomass and coal) are still the dominant precursors for the formation of tropospheric ozone (O3) and secondary organic aerosols (SOAs). Limited research focused on the evolution, as known as atmospheric aging, of VOCs emitted during long-timescale observations. Here, freshly emitted and aged VOCs from common residual solid fuel combustions were collected onto absorption tubes before and after passing through an oxidation flow reactor (OFR) system, respectively. The emission factor (EF) of freshly emitted total VOCs is in descending order of corn cob ≥ corn straw > firewood ≥ wheat straw > coals. Aromatic and oxygenated VOCs (OVOCs) are the two most abundant groups, accounting for >80% of the EF of total quantified VOCs (EFTVOCs). Briquette technology shows an effective reduction of the VOC emission, demonstrating a maximum 90.7% lower EFTVOCs in comparison to that of biomass fuels. In contrast, each VOC shows significantly different degradation in comparison to EF of freshly emitted and after 6- and 12-equivalent day aging (actual atmospheric aging days calculated from aging simulation). The largest degradations after 6-equivalent days of aging are observed on alkenes in the biomass group (60.9% on average) and aromatics in the coal group (50.6% on average), consistent with their relatively high reactivities toward oxidation with O3 and hydroxyl radical. The largest degraded compound is seen for acetone, followed by acrolein, benzene, and toluene. Furthermore, the results show that the distinction of VOC species based on long-timescale (12-equivalent day aging) observation is essential to further explore the effect of regional transport. The alkanes which have relatively lower reactivities but high EFs could be accumulated through long-distance transport. These results provide detailed data on fresh and aged VOCs emitted from residential fuels which could be used to explore the atmospheric reaction mechanism.

Integrating ambient carbonyl compounds provides insight into the constrained ozone formation chemistry in Zibo city of the North China Plain. ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2023; 324:121294.

Abstract
Quantifying the impact of carbonyl compounds (carbonyls) on ozone (O3) photochemical formation is crucial to formulating targeted O3 mitigation strategies. To investigate the emission source of ambient carbonyls and their integrated observational constraint on the impact of O3 formation chemistry, a field campaign was conducted in an industrial city (Zibo) of the North China Plain from August to September 2020. The site-to-site variations of OH reactivity for carbonyls were in accordance with the sequence of Beijiao (BJ, urban, 4.4 s-1) > Xindian (XD, suburban, 4.2 s-1) > Tianzhen (TZ, suburban, 1.6 s-1). A 0-D box model (MCMv3.3.1) was applied to assess the O3-precursor relationship influenced by measured carbonyls. It was found that without carbonyls constraint, the O3 photochemical production of the three sites was underestimated to varying degrees, and the biases of overestimating the VOC-limited degree were also identified through a sensitivity test to NOx emission changes, which may be associated with the reactivity of carbonyls. In addition, the results of the positive matrix factorization (PMF) model indicated that the main source of aldehydes and ketones was secondary formation and background (81.6% for aldehydes, 76.8% for ketones), followed by traffic emission (11.0% for aldehydes, 14.0% for ketones). Incorporated with the box model, we found that biogenic emission contributed the most to the O3 production at the three sites, followed by traffic emission as well as industry and solvent usage. Meanwhile, the relative incremental reactivity (RIR) values of O3 precursor groups from diverse VOC emission sources featured consistencies and differences at the three sites, which further highlights the importance of the synergetic mitigation of target O3 precursors at regional and local scales. This study will help to provide targeted policy-guiding O3 control strategies for other regions.

J Environ Sci (China) 2023; 127:143-157. [PMID: 36522048 DOI: 10.1016/j.jes.2022.01.026] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2021] [Revised: 01/10/2022] [Accepted: 01/11/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
The coastal eco-city of Fuzhou in Southeastern China has experienced severe ozone (O3) episodes at times in recent years. In this study, three typical synoptic circulations types (CTs) that influenced more than 80% of O3 polluted days in Fuzhou during 2014-2019 were identified using a subjective approach. The characteristics of meteorological conditions linked to photochemical formation and transport of O3 under the three CTs were summarized. Comprehensive Air Quality Model with extensions was applied to simulate O3 episodes and to quantify O3 sources from different regions in Fuzhou. When Fuzhou was located to the west of a high-pressure system (classified as "East-ridge"), more warm southwesterly currents flowed to Fuzhou, and the effects of cross-regional transport from Guangdong province and high local production promoted the occurrence of O3 episodes. Under a uniform pressure field with a low-pressure system occurring to the east of Fuzhou (defined as "East-low"), stagnant weather conditions caused the strongest local production of O3 in the atmospheric boundary layer. Controlled by high-pressure systems over the mainland (categorized as "Inland-high"), northerly airflows enhanced the contribution of cross-regional transport to O3 in Fuzhou. The abnormal increases of the "East-ridge" and "Inland-high" were closely related to O3 pollution in Fuzhou in April and May 2018, resulting in the annual maximum number of O3 polluted days during recent years. Furthermore, the rising number of autumn O3 episodes in 2017-2019 was mainly related to the "Inland-high", indicating the aggravation of cross-regional transport and highlighting the necessity of enhanced regional collaboration and efforts in combating O3 pollution.

Abstract
This study examined volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted from the combustion of seven typical biomass fuel types in a traditional stove, elevated kang, and biomass furnace and from the combustion of three types of coal in coal furnaces. The results revealed that emission factors (EFs) of VOCs emitted from combustion processes ranged from 48.8 ± 29.1 mg/kg (for anthracite combustion in an outdoor boiler) to 5700 ± 6040 mg/kg (for sesame straw combustion in a traditional stove). Changing the fuel type engendered a more significant EF reduction (82.7%) than changing the stove type (51.8%). The emitted VOCs (including oxygenated VOCs, OVOCs) can be ordered as follows (in descending order) in terms of proportion: OVOCs > alkenes > aromatic VOCs > alkanes > halo hydrocarbons > alkynes. These results indicate solid fuel combustion processes warrant attention because they produce high OVOC emissions. The ozone formation potential (OFP) values derived for VOCs emitted from solid fuel combustion ranged from 5.83 ± 0.72 to 1910 ± 1750 mg/kg. Clean fuel and clean stove technologies both exhibited >80% efficiency levels in reducing OFP emissions (e.g., 80.6% reduction for the optimal fuel; 89.4% reduction for a clean stove). Therefore, the difference between VOC emission profiles from different combustion technologies should not be ignored. This study also noted substantial differences between VOC emissions from residential combustion and industrial combustion. Accordingly, attention should be paid to the local characteristics of fuels and stoves and to VOC emissions from residential combustion.

Abstract
China is prone to severe surface ozone pollution in summer, so it is very important to understand the source of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) to control ozone formation. In this work, the emission characteristics of 91 VOC components from the plastic products industry, packaging and printing industries, printing ink industry, furniture manufacturing and vehicle manufacturing industries were studied. The results show that there are significant differences between these sources, and for the plastic products industry, alkanes (48%) are the most abundant VOCs. The main emission species in the packaging and printing industry are OVOCs (36%) and alkanes (34%). The proportion of OVOCs in the printing ink (73%) and furniture manufacturing industries (49%) is dominated by VOC emissions; aromatic hydrocarbons (33%), alkanes (33%), and OVOCs (17%) are the main emission species in the vehicle manufacturing industry. At the same time, the ozone generation potential (OFP) and secondary organic aerosol formation potential (SOA) of anthropogenic VOC emissions were evaluated, and the top 10 contributors to OFP and SOA were identified. Toluene, o-xylene, and m-xylene had a significant tendency to form OFP or SOA. Then, a health risk assessment of VOC components was carried out. These data can supplement the existing VOC emission characteristics of anthropogenic emissions, thus enriching the research progress of VOC emission sources.

Abstract
Ground-level ozone (O3) pollution has received widespread attention because its rising trend and adverse ecological impacts. However, the extremely strong photochemical reactions of its precursor volatile organic compounds (VOCs) increase the difficulty of reducing VOCs emissions to alleviate O3. Here, we carried out a one-year comprehensive observation in two representative cities, Tianjin (TJ, Northern China) and Guangzhou (GZ, Southern China). By revealing the concentration characteristics of three different types of VOCs, i.e., initial VOCs without photochemical reaction (In-VOCs), consumed VOCs (C-VOCs), and measured VOCs after the reaction (M-VOCs), we elucidated the important role of C-VOCs in the formation of O3. Although the overall trends were similar in both cities, the average concentration level of VOCs in GZ was 8.2 ppbv higher than that in TJ, and the photochemical loss of VOCs was greater by 2.2 ppbv. In addition, various drivers affecting O3 generation from C-VOCs were specifically explored, and it was found that most alkenes of TJ were key substances for rapid O3 formation compared to aromatics of GZ. Meanwhile, favorable meteorological conditions such as high temperature (T > 31 °C in TJ, and T > 33 °C in GZ), low relative humidity (56% in TJ and 45% in GZ), and stable atmospheric environment (proper pressure and gentle wind speed) also contribute to the generation of O3. More importantly, we combined chemical kinetics and receptor model to quantify the three-type VOCs source contributions and assess the potential impact of C-VOCs sources on O3 production, thus proposing environmental abatement technologies corresponding to the three types of VOCs. The differences in the comparison results of the three-type VOCs highlight the need to reduce O3 pollution from C-VOCs sources, which provides insights for future clean air policies development.

Abstract
The development of stable, highly active, and inexpensive catalysts for the ozone catalytic oxidation of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) is challenging but of great significance. Herein, the micro-coordination environment of Al in commercial Y zeolite was regulated by a specific dealumination method and then the dealuminated Y zeolite was used as the support of Cu-Mn oxides. The optimized catalyst Cu-Mn/DY exhibited excellent performance with around 95% of toluene removal at 30 °C. Besides, the catalyst delivered satisfactory stability in both high-humidity conditions and long-term reactions, which is attributed to more active oxygen vacancies and acidic sites, especially the strong Lewis acid sites newly formed in the catalyst. The decrease in the electron cloud density around aluminum species enhanced electron transfer at the interface between Cu-Mn oxides. Moreover, extra-framework octahedrally coordinated Al in the support promoted the electronic metal-support interaction (EMSI). Compared with single Mn catalysts, the incorporation of the Cu component changed the degradation pathway of toluene. Benzoic acid, as the intermediate of toluene oxidation, can directly ring-open on Cu-doped catalysts rather than being further oxidized to other byproducts, which increased the rate of the catalytic reaction. This work provides a new insight and theoretical guidance into the rational design of efficient catalysts for the catalytic ozonation of VOCs.

Abstract
This study updated carbonyl compound (CC) emission factors (EFs) and composition for residential solid fuel combustion based on real-world measurements of 124 fuel/stove combinations in China and explored the CC formation mechanism using tube-furnace experiments with 19 fuels and low/high temperatures to explain the impact of fuel and stove on CC emission characteristics. The average EFCC values for straw, wood, and coal were 1.94 ± 1.57, 1.50 ± 0.88, and 0.40 ± 0.54 g/kg, respectively. Formaldehyde and acetaldehyde were the most abundant species, accounting for 40-60% of CCs, followed by acetone (∼20%), aromatic aldehydes (∼10%), and unsaturated aldehydes (∼5%). Different from formaldehyde and acetaldehyde, other species showed significant variation among fuel types. All these characteristics could be explained by the difference in the volatile content and chemical structure of fuel, such as aromatic in coal versus lignin in biomass. The improvement in stove technology reduced CC emissions by 30.4-69.7% (mainly formaldehyde and acetaldehyde) among fuels but increased the proportion of aromatic aldehydes by 24.3-89.4%. Various CC species showed different formation mechanisms related to fuel property and burning temperature. The volatile matter derived from thermal pyrolysis of fuel polymers determined CC composition, while higher temperature preferentially degraded formaldehyde and acetaldehyde but promoted the formation of acetone and aromatic aldehydes. This study not only revealed emission characteristic of CCs from RSFC but also contributed to the improvement of clean combustion technology.

Fate of Oxygenated Volatile Organic Compounds in the Yangtze River Delta Region: Source Contributions and Impacts on the Atmospheric Oxidation Capacity.

Abstract
The Community Multiscale Air Quality model (CMAQv5.2) was implemented to investigate the sources and sinks of oxygenated volatile organic compounds (OVOCs) during a high O3 and high PM2.5 season in the Yangtze River Delta (YRD) region, based on constraints from observations. The model tends to overpredict non-oxygenated VOCs and underpredict OVOCs, which has been improved with adjusted emissions of all VOCs. The OVOCs in the YRD are dominated by ketones, aldehydes, and alcohols. Ketones and aldehydes mainly originate from direct emissions and secondary formation in the northern YRD, and primarily originate from secondary formation in the southern part influenced by biogenic emissions. The concentration of secondary organic aerosols (SOA) produced by OVOCs is 0.5-1.5 μg/m3, with 40-80% originated from organic nitrates, 20-70% originated from dicarbonyls, and 0-20% originated from isoprene epoxydiols. The influences of OVOCs on the atmospheric oxidation capacity are dominated by the OH• pathway during the day (∼350%) and by the NO3• pathway at night (∼150%). Consequently, O3 is enhanced by 30-70% in the YRD. Aerosols are also enhanced by 50-140%, 20-80%, and ∼20% for SOA, nitrate, and sulfate, respectively.
