Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and nitro-PAHs (NPAHs) in PM2.5 samples were collected at a roadside monitoring station Kanazawa, Japan, every season from 2017 to 2018. Nine PAHs five NPAHs determined using high-performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection chemiluminescence detection, respectively. The mean concentrations of highest winter lowest summer. Fluoranthene pyrene the dominant 1-nitropyrene was NPAH all seasons, these compounds mainly emitted by diesel...
The purpose of this study was to identify pollution sources by characterizing polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons from total suspended particles in Ulaanbaatar City. Fifteen were measured particle samples collected different sites, such as the urban center, industrial district and ger (Mongolian traditional house) areas, residential areas both heating (January, March), non-heating (September) periods 2017. Polycyclic hydrocarbon concentration ranged between 131 773 ng·m-3 winter, 22.2 530.6...
Particulate matter (PM) was collected in three different areas, SY-1, SY-2, and SY-3, Shenyang, China, during the warm cold seasons from 2012 to 2014. SY-1 located beside a thermal power plant, far central area. SY-2 near coal heating boiler on main road, close SY-3 without fixed emission sources. Nine PM-bound polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were analyzed. The results showed that mean concentration of total PAHs higher season (92.6–316 ng m−3) than (18.4–32.2 m−3). Five- six-ring...
Background: Background sites are mainly affected by long-range-transported air pollutants, resulting in potential adverse effects on local atmospheric environments. A 4–5 year observational study was conducted to illustrate the pollution profile at Kanazawa University Wajima monitoring station (KUWAMS), an ideal remote background site Japan. Methods: Nine polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) particulate phase and various pollutants were continuously monitored for years. Diagnostic ratios...
Particulate polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were continuously observed at Kanazawa University Wajima Air Monitoring Station (KUWAMS), a background site located in western Japan and downwind of mainland China that is constantly under the influence polluted air masses originating from China. The observations showed concentration particulate PAHs KUWAMS sharply dropped to lowest level (62 pg m–3) cold season last 5 years after implementation COVID-19 control measures Despite occasional...
Daily PM2.5 (particulate matter with aerodynamic diameter ≤2.5 μm) samples were simultaneously collected at two background sites (Wajima Air Monitoring Station (WAMS) and Fukue-Jima Atmosphere Aerosol (FAMS)) in Japan the East Asian winter summer monsoon periods of 2017 2019, to compare characteristics air pollutants among different regions determine possible variation during long-range transport process. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), nitro-PAHs (NPAHs), water-soluble inorganic...
Fine particulate matter (PM2.5) samples were collected in the summer and winter of 2015 2017 Xinxiang, China. Nine polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) three nitro-PAHs (NPAHs) PM2.5 detected via high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The PAHs concentration decreased from 6.37 ± 1.30 ng/m3 96.9 69.9 to 4.89 2.67 49.8 43.4 2017. NPAHs (from 1707 708 pg/m3 1192 1113 pg/m3), but increased (336 77.2 pg/m3) (456 312 pg/m3). Diagnostic ratios indicated that petroleum combustion was main...
Abstract PM 2.1 was collected at urban and suburban elementary schools in Shanghai during two sampling periods cold warm seasons 2007. Nine polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) ten nitro-polycyclic (NPAHs) were determined. During both seasons, the concentrations of PAHs NPAHs not significantly different( p >0.05) higher period than period. According to diagnostic ratios, subject mixed effects vehicle emission coal combustion periods. Moreover, results backward trajectory showed that...
The main components of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and the degree contamination soil with different oils (gasoline, diesel oil, lubricating oil) were examined. Malus prunifolia var. Ringo was planted in contaminated by gasoline, or oil three concentrations which low concentration (0.1 g kg−1), medium (0.2 high (0.5 kg−1) April 2016. changes PAH contents index measured from July to September It showed that more naphthalene, anthracene, phenanthrene, fluorene, flexion detected...
As a background sampling site in western Japan, the Kanazawa University Wajima Air Monitoring Station (KUWAMS) continuously observes air pollutants, including PM1, PM2.5, organic carbon (OC) and element (EC). Data for September 2019 to April 2020 were compared with data 2018 2019. The mean concentrations of both PM1 PM2.5 4.10 µg/m3 (47%) 5.82 (33%) lower, respectively Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) period (January April) than same Notably, average classes particulate matter (PM) COVID-19...
Abstract This is the first comparative study to examine two different background monitoring sites in Japan compare differences concentration and composition of long-range-transported polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons(PAHs) from Asian continent. chose Noto Peninsula (the Kanazawa University Wajima Air Monitoring Station; WAMS) Fukue Island Fukue-jima Atmosphere Aerosol FAMS) 10 weekly periods 2009 2010 autumn spring, seasons that are strongly influenced by The PAHs differed significantly for...
