Particulate Composition Characteristics under Different Ambient Air Quality Conditions
Particulate compositions including elemental carbon (EC), organic carbon (OC), water-soluble ionic species, and elemental compositions were investigated during the period from 2004 to 2006 in southern Taiwan. The correlation between the pollutant standard index (PSI) of ambient air quality and the various particle compositions was also addressed in this study. PSI revealed a correlation with fine (r = 0.74) and coarse (r = 0.80) particulate matter (PM). PSI manifested a significant correlation with the amount of analyzed ionic species (r ∼ 0.80) in coarse and fine particles and a moderate correlation with carbon content (r = 0.63) in fine particles; however, it showed no correlation with elemental content. Although the ambient air quality ranged from good to moderate, the ionic species including chloride (Cl−), nitrate (NO3 −), sulfate (SO4 2−), sodium (Na+), ammonium (NH4 +), magnesium (Mg2+), and calcium (Ca2+) increased significantly (1.5–3.7 times for Daliao and 1.8–6.9 times for Tzouying) in coarse PM. For fine particles, NO3 −, SO4 2−, NH4 +, and potassium (K+) also increased significantly (1.3–2.4 times for Daliao and 2.8–9.6 times for Tzouying) when the air quality went from good to moderate. For meteorological parameters, temperature evidenced a slightly negative correlation with PM concentration and PSI value, which implied a high PM concentration in the low-temperature condition. This reflects the high frequency of PM episodes in winter and spring in southern Taiwan. In addition, the mixing height increase from 980 to 1450 m corresponds to the air quality condition changing from unhealthy to good.
The study investigates particulate compositions including EC, OC, water-soluble ionic species, and elemental compositions during the period from 2004 to 2006 in southern Taiwan. The relationship between the PSI of ambient air quality and the various particle compositions was also addressed in this work. Although the ambient air quality deteriorated, the ionic species including Cl−, NO3 −, SO4 2−, Na+, NH4 +, Mg2+, and Ca2+ increased significantly in coarse PM and NO3 −, SO4 2−, NH4 +, and K+ also increased significantly in fine particles. In addition, the mixing height decrease corresponds to the poor air quality conditions.
