摘要

Size-resolved measurements of particulate matter (PM) emissions from 10 biomass materials (rice straw, soybean stem, green perilla stem, red pepper stem, pine needles, cherry leaves, cherry stem, maple leaves, gingko leaves and gingko stem) were conducted in a laboratory hood chamber environment using a 10-stage MOUDI. Samples were analyzed to determine the mass, water soluble organic carbon (WSOC), and water soluble inorganic species. This study examines how particle emissions and size distributions of chemical components vary with biomass materials. Mass fractions of water soluble organic mass (WSOM) (=1.6 x WSOC) and ionic species to the PM1.8 emissions varied significantly depending on the biomass type burned. The percent mass of WSOM in PM1.8 emissions ranged from 19.8% (green perilla stem) to 41.9% (red pepper stem) for agricultural crop residues, while the tree category accounted for 9.6% (gingko leaves) to 44.0% (gingko stem) of the PM1.8 emissions. Total ionic species contents in the PM1.8 mass ranged from 7.4% (rice straw) to 26.9% (green perilla stem) for the agricultural waste category, and 5.8% (maple leaves) to 23.5% (gingko stem) for the tree category. The ionic species fraction of the PM1.8 emission was dominated by K+, Cl-, and SO42-, while Ca2+ was important in the coarse mode particles (%26gt;3.1 mu m). PM1.8 emissions of K+, Cl-, and SO42- were as high as 16.9%, 9.0%, and 5.8%, respectively, and were from the green perilla stem, red pepper stem, and gingko stem emissions. Normalized size distributions of mass, WSOC, K+, Cl-, SO42-, and oxalate in the biomass burning emissions showed a unimodal size distribution, peaking in the size ranges of 0.32-0.55 mu m and 0.55-1.0 mu m. Size-resolved PM mass fractions of WSOM, K+, Cl-, and SO42- showed fairly consistent distributions for each biomass type, with higher fractions in the ultrafine mode (%26lt;0.10 mu m) and lower fractions in the accumulation mode of 0.32-1.0 mu m. The size distributions of WSOC were strongly correlated (mostly R-2 %26gt; 0.90) with those of K+ in the particle size range of %26lt;0.1 mu m and 0.1-1.8 mu m and the biomass types. Strong correlations between the concentrations of K+-Cl- and K+ - SO42- were observed for the following size ranges; %26lt;0.1 mu m, 0.1-1.0 mu m, 1.0-1.8 mu m, and 1.8-3.1 mu m for most biomass burning emissions. Regression line slopes for K+/WSOC (i.e., mass of K+/mass of WSOC from biomass burning emissions) were not significantly changed for particle size and biomass type, but slopes for Cl-/K+ and SO42-/K+ varied significantly with the particle size (ultrafine, condensation, droplet, and coarse modes) and biomass type.
