为探究粤港澳大湾区秋季高浓度臭氧(O3)事件的污染特征及形成机制,本研究综合观测数据,利用基于观测的模型(OBM)和经验动力学方法(EKMA),以香港为例,分析该地区3次高浓度O3污染事件中O3浓度及前体物挥发性有机物(VOCs)的排放特征,评估VOCs对O3生成敏感性机制的影响和对O3生成的贡献.结果表明:在3次事件中,O3峰值分别为382.65、302.67和301.76μg/m3,对应的VOCs浓度均值分别为23.6×10-9、25.4×10-9和32.1×10-9.含氧挥发性有机物(OVOCs)在观测物种中占据主导地位,其中甲醇、甲醛和丙酮是体积分数前三的VOCs.EKMA曲线证实O3-氮氧化物(NOx)-VOCs之间的非线性关系取决于NOx与VOCs的即时浓度,观测期间上午时段为VOCs控制区,下午时段为NOx-VOCs协同控制区.光化学初始浓度(PIC)较实测值高8.2×10-9,表明忽视实际消耗的VOCs会低估本地VOCs光化学反应对O3生成的贡献.此外,由于O3前体物和自由基的种类及浓度的差异,导致了O3生成和损耗速率的不同,证实VOCs作为前体物对O3净生成过程的促进效应.通过对臭氧生成潜势(OFP)与羟基消耗速率(LOH)的计算可知,对OFP贡献率最高的VOCs组分依次为OVOCs(68.9%),烯烃(17.5%)和芳香烃(13.6%).甲醛和异戊二烯分别是香港秋季驱动O3生成以及羟基(OH)消耗的优势物种,其中甲醛的OFP为42.1~73.1μg/m3,异戊二烯的LOH为1.35~2.12s-1.基于后向轨迹聚类分析,香港背景点主要受东北风驱动的三类气团影响:长距离输送(52%)、短距离输送(28%)和本地源(20%).研究结果揭示本地VOCs光化学反应、不同VOCs对O3生成敏感性的响应特征以及区域传输与本地排放的协同作用对香港秋季O3污染具有重要影响.
Abstract
To investigate the pollution characteristics and formation mechanisms of ozone episodes in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA) during autumn, ozone (O3) concentrations and emission characteristics of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) were analyzed during three ozone episodesin Hong Kong.Observational data combined withobservation-based model(OBM) and the empirical kinetics modeling approach (EKMA) wasemployed to assess the impact of VOCs on O3 formation sensitivity mechanisms and contribution to O3 formation. The peak O3 values recorded during the three episodes were 382.65, 302.67, and 301.76μg/m3, with corresponding concentrations of VOCs measuring 23.6×10-9, 25.4×10-9, and 32.1×10-9, respectively. Oxygenated volatile organic compounds (OVOCs)were the most dominant of the observed species, with methanol, formaldehyde, and acetone being the three most prevalent by volume fraction. EKMA curves confirmedthat the nonlinear relationship among O3-nitrogen oxides (NOx)-VOCs depends ontheir instantaneous concentrations. The morning hours were characterized as VOC-limited regimes, while the afternoon hourswerethe transitional regime. The photochemical initial concentration (PIC) was 8.2×10-9 higher than measured concentration, indicating that neglecting photochemically VOCs consumption may lead to an underestimation of the contribution of local VOCs photochemical reactions to O3 formation. Furthermore, differences in the types and concentrations of O3 precursors and radicals resulted in varying O3 formation and loss rates, confirming the promoting effect of VOCs as precursors on net O3 formation. Based on O3 formation potential (OFP) and OH loss rate (LOH) calculations, the VOCs with the highest contribution to the OFP were OVOCs (68.9%), alkenes (17.5%), and aromatics (13.6%). Formaldehyde and isoprene were the dominant species driving O3 formation and hydroxyl radical (OH) consumption in the autumn in Hong Kong, respectively. The OFP of formaldehyde ranged from 42.1 to 73.1μg/m3, and the LOH of isoprene varied from 1.35 to 2.12s-1. Backward trajectory cluster analysis revealed that Hong Kong’s background site was primarily influenced by three air mass types driven by northeasterly winds: long-range transport (52%), short-range transport (28%), and local sources (20%). Results reveal that the photochemical reactions of VOCs, the response characteristics of different VOCs to the sensitivity of O3 formation, and the synergistic effect of regional transport and local emissions have a significant impact on the O3 pollution in Hong Kong during autumn.
