We present an Aerodyne tunable infrared laser direct absorption spectrometer with a multipass cell for the detection of ethylene oxide (EtO). The monitor achieves high precisions and demonstrates enhancement events of EtO lasting a few hours with peaks as high as 600 ppt. The source of EtO emission is confirmed through mobile near-source measurements.
An Aerodyne tunable infrared laser direct absorption spectrometer with a multipass cell with a 413m pathlength for the detection of ethylene oxide (EtO) is presented (TILDAS-FD-EtO). This monitor achieves precisions of < 75 ppt or < 0 :075 ppb s(-1) and < 20 ppt in 100s (1 sigma). We demonstrate precisions averaging down to 4 ppt h(-1) (1 sigma precision) when operated with frequent humidity-matched zeroes. A months-long record of 2022 ambient concentrations at a site in the eastern United States is presented. Average ambient EtO concentration is on the order of 18 ppt (22 ppt standard deviation, SD). Enhancement events of EtO lasting a few hours are observed, with peaks as high as 600 ppt. Back-trajectory simulations suggest an EtO source nearly 35 km away. This source along with another are confirmed as emitters through mobile near-source measurements, with downwind concentrations in the 0.5 to 700 ppb range depending on source identity and distance downwind.
