摘要：In recent years, North China has suffered from severe air pollution. Hence, this study performed a comprehensive field experiment during Dec. 2017 in Shahe (114.5°N, 36.85°E), a typical industrial city in this region that is characterized by intensive NOx emission from the local glassmaking industry. During the study period, the mass concentration of the PM2.5 (fine particulate matter) averaged 121.6 ± 91.8 µg m–3, whereas the mass concentrations of the nitrate and sulfate in the PM2.5 averaged 21.4 ± 16.3 and 15.9 ± 20.9 µg m–3, respectively. The high sulfate mass concentration primarily resulted from the oxidation of SO2, which was mainly due to gas-phase and heterogeneous reactions during low relative humidity (RH; 40%). In addition, because the nitrogen oxidation ratio (NOR) increased as the RH decreased during the day, the nitrate was largely generated through photochemical reactions. The mass concentrations of the optical organic carbon (OC), elemental carbon (EC), and water-soluble organic compounds (WSOCs) equaled 50.4 ± 31.1, 5.8 ± 4.4, and 12.8 ± 10.1 µgC m–3, respectively, and applying the EC tracer method revealed that primary emissions contributed approximately 72% of the total OC. Furthermore, intense industrial activities were detected in a nearby area to the northeast, which potential source contribution function (PSCF) analysis identified as the main potential source area for PM2.5 during haze.
