Spatial and temporal characteristics of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in the air of an agricultural residue open burning area

This research used high-volume air sampling (PS-1) and micro-orifice uniform deposit impactor (MOUDI) to measure concentrations of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in the air of a agricultural residue open burning area in Jhushan and Singang station during the rice straw non-burning and burning periods. And PAHs of different size distributions are analyzed. Finally, absolute principal component analyze (APCA) model confer the probable sources of pollution in open burning area.
The average PAHs concentrations were 330.04 and 567.81 ng/m3 during the rice straw non-burning and burning period in Jhushan station, the average PAHs concentrations were 427.16 and 571.80 ng/m3 during the rice straw non-burning and burning period in Singang station, respectively, in the rice straw burning period, which were higher than those on the non-burning days.
The results of APCA model analysis showed that the contributions of PAHs from mobile source (gasoline and diesel) were 66.50 ¡Ó 7.99 %, burning incense in temple source were 14.83 ¡Ó 6.68 % and burning coal and wood source were 18.67 ¡Ó 6.17 % during the rice straw non-burning period. PAHs from mobile (gasoline) and rice straw non-burning source were 57.27 ¡Ó 6.90 %, mobile source (diesel) were 42.73 ¡Ó 6.89 % during the rice straw burning period in Jhushan station.
The results of APCA model analysis showed that the contributions of PAHs from mobile (diesel) and burning incense in temple source were 45.67 ¡Ó 6.43 %, mobile (gasoline) and plastics incinerator source were 54.33 ¡Ó 6.39 % during the rice straw non-burning period. PAHs from burning incense in temple, rice straw, mobile (gasoline and diesel) source were 50.69 ¡Ó 4.55 %, plastics incinerator source were 36.78 ¡Ó 4.24 % and other source were 12.53 ¡Ó 2.71 %¡C
