Direct Observation of Sulfate Explosive Growth in Wet Plumes Emitted From Typical Coal-Fired Stationary Sources

Xiang Ding et al.

Summary: Observations showed that sulfate production in stack plumes equipped with wet desulfurization systems was previously underestimated, partially explaining the missing sulfate in most particle pollution episodes. Policymakers are suggested to target particulate emissions in order to reduce sulfate emissions for further air quality improvement.

Rethinking the causes of extreme heavy winter PM2.5 pollution events in northern China

Xiaohuan Liu et al.

Summary: This study used the CMAQ model to simulate PM2.5 concentrations in different seasons in northern China in 2013, finding that underestimation of primarily emitted particles from local sources is the main cause of PM2.5 underpredictions during heavy haze days. The study also suggested that the assumption of gas-aerosol thermodynamic equilibrium in the model may result in an overprediction of inorganic salts on clear days.

Vertical Distributions of Primary and Secondary Aerosols in Urban Boundary Layer: Insights into Sources, Chemistry, and Interaction with Meteorology

Lu Lei et al.

Summary: Vertical measurements of aerosol particle composition in urban Beijing during winter showed significant variations in vertical ratios among different aerosol species, indicating different chemical properties of organic aerosols between ground level and aloft. Moreover, the impacts of vertical changes in meteorology and gaseous precursors on secondary organic aerosol formation were highlighted.
