Abstract. Volatile chemical products (VCPs) have become an important source of reactive organic gases (ROGs) in urban areas worldwide. Industrial activities can also utilize a large number VCPs and emit many into the atmosphere. Due to multiple sampling measurement challenges, only subset ROG species is usually measured for industrial VCP sources. This study aims investigate emissions ROGs from five sources Pearl River Delta (PRD) region China, including shoemaking, plastic surface coating, furniture printing, ship coating industries. A more comprehensive speciation these was developed by combination proton-transfer-reaction time-of-flight mass spectrometer (PTR-ToF-MS) gas chromatography–mass spectrometer/flame ionization detector (GC–MS/FID). Our identified oxygenated (OVOCs) as representative emitted sources, which are highly related specific chemicals used during activities. Moreover, spectra similarity analysis revealed significant dissimilarities among activities, indicating substantial variations between different Except industry utilizing solvent-borne coatings, proportions OVOCs range 67 % 96 total 72 97 OH reactivity (OHR) while corresponding contributions 16 ± 3.5 15 3.6 %.

PM2.5 chemical components play significant roles in the climate, air quality, and public health, vary due to their different physicochemical properties. Obtaining accurate timely updated information on China's composition is basis for research environmental management. Here, we developed a full-coverage near-real-time data set at 10 km spatial resolution since 2000, combining Weather Research Forecasting-Community Multiscale Air Quality modeling system, ground observations, machine learning algorithm, multisource-fusion data. our are good agreement with available observations (correlation coefficients range from 0.64 0.75 monthly scale 2000 2020 0.67 0.80 daily 2013 2020; most normalized mean biases within ±20%). Our reveals long-term trends China, especially rapid decreases after sulfate, nitrate, ammonium, organic matter, black carbon, rate of -9.0, -7.2, -8.1, -8.4, -9.2% per year, respectively. The day-to-day variability also well captured, including evolutions distribution shares components. As part Tracking Pollution China (http://tapdata.org.cn), this daily-updated provides large opportunities health climate as policy-making China.

Abstract Air pollution is one of the most challenging environmental issues in world. China has achieved remarkable success improving air quality last decade as a result aggressive control policies. However, average fine particulate matter (PM 2.5 ) concentration still about six times World Health Organization (WHO) Global Quality Guidelines (AQG) and causing significant human health risks. Extreme emission reductions multiple pollutants are required for to achieve AQG. Here we identify major challenges future improvement propose corresponding strategies. The main include persistently high risk attributed PM pollution, excessively loose standards, coordinated greenhouse gases (GHGs) emissions emerging pollutants. To further improve protect health, health-oriented strategy shall be implemented by tightening standards well optimizing reduction pathways based on risks various sources. In meantime, an “one-atmosphere” concept adopted strengthen synergistic GHGs non-combustion sources enhanced.

A big gap exists between current air quality in China and the World Health Organization (WHO) global guidelines (AQG) released 2021. Previous studies on pollution control have focused emission reduction demand but ignored influence of transboundary pollution, which has been proven to a significant impact China.

Abstract. Current chemical transport models fail to reproduce both the concentrations and temporal variations of organic aerosol (OA), especially secondary (SOA), hindering identification major contribution sources. The fact that precursors intermediate-volatility semivolatile compounds (I/SVOCs) are not included in has a significant impact on performance SOA simulation. Herein, we establish high-resolution emission inventory I/SVOCs by incorporating it into CMAQ model, concentrations, variations, spatial distributions POA originating from different sources Yangtze River Delta (YRD) region China were simulated. By I/SVOC emissions modeled average increased 148 %. Significant model improvements simulations OA components demonstrated comparison with comprehensive observation data. Furthermore, seasonal source contributions production have been identified. We found cooking predominant densely populated urban area region. industrial dominant contributors formation, followed those mobile Our results indicate future control measures should be specifically tailored an intraregional scale based characteristics achieve national goal continuous improvement air quality. In addition, local profiles factors I/SVOCs, as well formation mechanisms framework must urgently updated further improve thus accuracy identifications.

Emissions of organic compounds have strong influences on the environment. Most previous emission inventories only cover emissions particulate carbon and nonmethane volatile (NMVOC) but neglect semivolatile intermediate (S/IVOC), which considerably contribute to aerosol (OA) burden. Herein, we developed a full-volatility inventory in China from 2005 2019 analyzed OA formation potential (OAFP) each volatility bin source using two-dimensional basis set (2D-VBS) box model. The low/extremely low/ultralow VOC (xLVOC) decreased substantially during 2005–2019, while SVOC showed significant decline after 2014, mainly because reduced residential biomass consumption. IVOC amounts were similar those 2005; however, major sources changed substantially. chemical products (VCP) increased significantly became dominant emissions. S/IVOC VCP contributed 1322 kt OAFP 2019, higher than total anthropogenic xLVOC Considering high S/IVOC, future air pollution control policies should prioritize VCP, burning, diesel vehicles.

Cooking emission is known to be a significant anthropogenic source of air pollution in urban areas, but its toxicities are still unclear. This study addressed the fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and gaseous organics by combining chemical fingerprinting analysis with cellular assessments. The cytotoxicity reactive oxygen species activity were ∼1.9 ∼8.3 times higher than those PM2.5, respectively. Moreover, these values per unit mass PM2.5 ∼7.1 ∼15.7 collected from ambient Shanghai. total oleic acid equivalent quantities for carcinogenic toxic respiratory effects organics, as estimated using predictive models based on quantitative structure-property relationships, 1686 ± 803 430 176 μg/mg Both predicted consistent assessment. These health risks primarily attributed high relative content equivalency factor organic compounds present gas phase, including 7,9-di-tert-butyl-1-oxaspiro(4,5)deca-6,9-diene-2,8-dione, 2-ethylhexanoic acid, 2-phenoxyethoxybenzene. Furthermore, fatty acids identified prominent markers cooking-related emissions. obtained results highlight importance control measures cooking-emitted reduce personal exposure risks.
