Fine and ultrafine particle- and gas-polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons affecting southern Thailand air quality during transboundary haze and potential health effects

Napawan Mahasakpan et al.

Summary: This study investigated the distribution of PM0.1, PM1, and PM2.5 particles and gas-polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in southern Thailand during different haze periods in 2019. The results showed that PM0.1, PM1, and PM2.5 were the significant sources of carcinogenic aerosols and their concentrations increased significantly during strong haze periods. The study also revealed a higher potential carcinogenic risk associated with these particles and gas-PAHs.

The presence of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in air particles and estimation of the respiratory deposition flux

Nur Ain Nazirah Binti Najurudeen et al.

Summary: This study aims to calculate the concentrations, identify the sources, and assess the health risks of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in atmospheric particles. The results indicate that the major source of PAHs is pyrogenic activities, and the health risks for all age groups are relatively low to moderate. Adults and adolescents living in the urban area of Kuala Lumpur are at the highest risk for respiratory health problems due to prolonged exposure to PAHs in PM10 and PM2.5.

Transboundary haze from peatland fires and local source-derived PM2.5 in Southern Thailand

Preyapon Promsiri et al.

Summary: This study characterized the impacts of transboundary haze from peatland fires in Indonesia and local emission sources on PM2.5 in Hat Yai, a city in southern Thailand, during 2019-2020. By measuring various chemical components of PM2.5 samples, the study identified both local and regional emission sources. The results showed that the increase in PM2.5 and chemical component concentrations during the transboundary haze period was mainly influenced by aerosols from open biomass burning in Indonesia. The study also found that secondary organic carbons and biomass burning were the dominant sources during this period.

Sulfate Formation Apportionment during Winter Haze Events in North China

Tiantian Wang et al.

Summary: In this study, the WRF-Chem model was used to evaluate sulfate formation mechanisms during winter haze events in North China. It was found that Mn-catalyzed oxidation on aerosol surfaces was the dominant pathway for sulfate formation, while gas-phase oxidation and H2O2 oxidation in aerosol water also contributed. Contributions from O-3, NO2 oxidation, and transition metal ion-catalyzed reactions in aerosol water were negligible, as well as in-cloud reactions.

Chemical Composition, Sources, and Health Risk Assessment of PM2.5 and PM10 in Urban Sites of Bangkok, Thailand

Mushtaq Ahmad et al.

Summary: Air pollution in built-up areas of Asia, caused by rapid industrialization and urbanization, has become increasingly severe. This study focuses on examining the impact of pollution on the health of people living in Bangkok, Thailand. The major sources of air pollution in Bangkok are identified as local emission sources and sea salt. The health risks associated with particulate matter exposure are found to be mostly non-carcinogenic, except for chromium, which poses a carcinogenic risk to adults through inhalation. Overall, this research emphasizes the serious threat that air pollution poses to the residents of Bangkok.

Summary: Data on emission of particulate matter and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from combustion of 11 types of biomass and bituminous coal were analyzed, showing that emission factors were influenced by the moisture content of biomass. Higher emissions were observed from Avicennia alba Blume, Xylocarpus moluccensis, and bituminous coal.

Investigation on the Impacts of COVID-19 Lockdown and Influencing Factors on Air Quality in Greater Bangkok, Thailand

Parichat Wetchayont

Summary: The COVID-19 lockdown measures had a significant impact on air pollution levels in Greater Bangkok, with concentrations of pollutants such as PM2.5, PM10, O-3, CO, SO2, and NO2 showing decreasing or increasing trends during different periods of the lockdown. The study highlighted the combined effect of atmospheric mechanisms linked to emission sources like traffic and biomass burning, emphasizing that the lockdown did not completely reduce air pollution due to dominant primary emission sources in the area.

Summary: The study investigated levels of carbonaceous aerosols and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, during the north-easterly monsoon period. Results showed that PM2.5 was influenced by biomass and coal combustion, with PAHs mainly sourced from natural gas, biomass burning, and urban traffic combustion. Additionally, health risk assessment of PAHs indicated acceptable levels below regulatory limits.

Elemental Characteristics and Source-Apportionment of PM2.5 During the Post-monsoon Season in Delhi, India

Vaibhav Bangar et al.

Summary: This study utilized measurements, modeling, and remote sensing techniques to analyze the source characteristics and variability of air pollutants in Delhi during the post-monsoon season in 2019. The results showed that PM2.5 in Delhi primarily comes from vehicular emissions, biomass burning, coal combustion, secondary aerosols formation, soil dust, solid-waste burning, and industrial emissions. Biomass burning, especially from large-scale agriculture residue burning in neighboring states, was identified as a major source of PM2.5 during the post-monsoon season.

Influence of Meteorological Conditions and Fire Hotspots on PM0.1 in Northern Thailand during Strong Haze Episodes and Carbonaceous Aerosol Characterization

Chaiyoth Sresawasd et al.

Summary: In Northern Thailand, haze from biomass burning containing fine and ultrafine aerosols significantly increases PM0.1 levels during dry periods. Carbonaceous PM0.1 components (EC and OC) in Chiang Mai were analyzed, showing a strong correlation with humidity and forest fire hotspots. The study reveals a linear increase in OC/EC ratio with the number of hotspots, indicating significant contribution from biomass burning and both domestic and transboundary aerosol transports during haze periods.

Effects of Coronavirus Induced City Lockdown on PM2.5 and Gaseous Pollutant Concentrations in Bangkok

Racha Dejchanchaiwong et al.

Summary: The study investigated the effects of partial lockdown measures on air quality in Bangkok, specifically focusing on PM2.5 and gas concentrations. While some pollutant concentrations were higher before the lockdown, the changes in PM2.5 levels during the lockdown were influenced by both local sources and external factors, such as transboundary aerosol transport from biomass burning. Reducing Bangkok's air pollution requires addressing various sources, including improving equipment for sugarcane harvesting to reduce biomass burning, implementing stricter emission control standards for diesel engines, and coordinating efforts among ASEAN member countries to address transboundary haze.
