The emission of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from asphalt during construction processes presents substantial risks to human health and the environment. To advance sustainable transportation development, this review offers a comprehensive study methods for characterization, release characteristics, influencing factors, mechanisms, environmental impacts VOCs. At present, research has been conducted on characterization methods, component risks. findings indicate that gas chromatography–mass spectrometry is most method characterizing Asphalt VOCs mainly comprise alkanes, aromatics, aliphatic hydrocarbons. Factors including temperature, source, ultraviolet radiation can all affect characteristics Elevated VOC levels contribute photochemical production ozone fine particulate matter, exacerbating air pollution climate change. Additionally, specific VOCs, benzene polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, pose humans. While progress achieved in current research, challenges persist quantifying assessing their risks, implementing effective mitigation technologies. address these challenges, future should focus establishing fingerprints, quantitative evaluation criteria, material innovation, optimization processes, exposure assessment, collaborative solution implementation.

Haze in Beijing is linked to atmospherically formed secondary organic aerosol, which has been shown be particularly harmful human health. However, the sources and formation pathways of these aerosols remain largely unknown, hindering effective pollution mitigation. Here we have quantified aerosol via direct near-molecular observations central Beijing. In winter, arises mainly from fresh solid-fuel emissions originating both combustion aqueous processes, probably involving multiphase chemistry with aromatic compounds. The most severe haze combustion, transported Beijing-Tianjing-Hebei Plain rural mountainous areas west summer, increased fraction dominated by Xi'an-Shanghai-Beijing region, while contribution biogenic remains relatively small. Overall, identify main affecting Beijing, clearly extend beyond local Our results suggest that targeting key precursor emission sectors regionally may needed effectively mitigate pollution.

Abstract. This study investigated the potential effects of changes in inorganics on aerosol water uptake and, thus, secondary organic (SOA) formation wintertime haze based size-resolved measurements non-refractory fine particulate matter (NR-PM2.5) Xi'an, northwestern China. The composition inorganic showed significant winter 2018–2019 compared to 2013–2014, shifting from a sulfate-rich profile nitrate-rich profile. In particular, fraction sulfate and chloride decreased, but that nitrate increased entire size range, while ammonium mainly at larger particle sizes. These thus resulted size-dependent evolution uptake. Increased was observed most cases, associated with enhanced contributions both ammonium, highest increase ratio reaching 5 %–35 % sizes higher relative humidity (RH>70 %). non-negligible influence also emphasized. random forest analysis coupled Shapley additive explanation algorithm (SHAP) further an importance impacting SOA formation. Aerosol exhibited contribution during 2018–2019, particularly SHAP value alongside levels water, indicating implies majority high RH might facilitate efficient aqueous-phase highlights key role as medium link organics their multiphase processes. As challenges improve China's air quality remain because plays increasing pollution, these results provide insight into characteristics offer guidance for future controls.
