Aerosols Size distribution Formation and Processing Composition Aerosol phase chemistry: VIII. Aerosols Size distribution Formation and Processing Composition Aerosol phase chemistrySlide2: Importance of aerosols human health air quality, airborne pathogen transport climate change direct/indirect effects aerosol optical properties, aerosol/cloud interactions geochemical cycles metals, nutrients, organics acidification (sulfur, nitrogen)Terminology: Terminology Aerosol – a dispersion of solid and liquid particles suspended in gas (air). note: “aerosol” is defined as the dispersion of both particles and gas, but in common practice it is used to refer to the particles only! Primary aerosol – atmospheric particles that are emitted or injected directly into the atmosphere. Secondary aerosol – atmospheric particles that are created by in situ aggregation or nucleation from gas phase molecules (gas to particle conversion). Either type may be natural or anthropogenic or both How much aerosol is there? typically ~10’s of ug/m3 (air density ~1kg/m3) Global Particle Production (Table 2.19 from Seinfeld and Pandis): Global Particle Production (Table 2.19 from Seinfeld and Pandis)Aerosol Size Distributions: Aerosol Size Distributions Number distribution nn(Dp)=dN/dDp Surface area distribution ns(Dp)= dS/dDp S=Dp2 Volume distribution nv(Dp)=dV/dDp V=(/6)*Dp3 Log-normal distributions: Log-normal distributions Aitken mode Accumulation mode Coarse mode Number distribution nn(log Dp)=dN/d log Dp Surface area distribution ns(log Dp)= dS/d log Dp Volume distribution nv(log Dp)=dV/d log DpThe Aerosol Modes: Aitken mode – 0.01-0.1 m Accumulation mode – 0.1-1 m Coarse mode - >1 m and sometimes, the elusive nucleation mode <0.01 um The Aerosol ModesA process oriented view of aerosol size distribution: A process oriented view of aerosol size distributionSlide9: hygroscopic aerosols grow/shrink with RH (with hysteresis!) aerosol size strongly affects light scattering cross-section Humidity and aerosol size...Slide10: Removal mechanisms... gravitational settling 10 m particle 1000 cm hr-1 1 m particle 10 cm hr-1Slide11: fine particles You can estimate the distance a particle will diffuse in a given time from the equation: where D is the diffusion coefficient Diffusion/CoagulationSlide12: Why is there an “accumulation” mode?So lifetimes are ….: So lifetimes are …. Aitken nuclei – hours to days (diffusion/coagulation) Accumulation mode – weeks Coarse mode – hours to days (deposition) Ultrafine – minutes to hours Secondary organic aerosol formation: Secondary organic aerosol formation VOC oxidized to less-volatile OC Partitioning to aerosol phase depends on vapor pressure High equilibrium vapor pressure high tendency to stay in gas phase Low equilibrium vapor pressure partitions to aerosol phase – non-volatiles Large organics (C> 6) tend form aerosols while organics C<6 do not.
