Abstract:Air pollutants emission from open burning of typical crop straws (including corn, wheat, peanut, and cotton) were characterized by using the flue gas pollutants dilution sampling system. The parameter of modified combustion efficiency (MCE) was applied to distinguish different combustion states. The carbon-balance methodology was adopted to calculate emission factors of particulate and gaseous air pollutants of flue gas from open burning. The results showed that the average emission factors of CO, SO2, NOx and CH4 from the open burning of four crop straws were 7.39~92.4g/kg, 0.11~0.89g/kg, 0.72~3.86g/kg and 0.2~5.45g/kg, respectively. The average emission factor of PM2.5 was 1.48~13.29g/kg. As the main component of PM2.5, the mass ratio of organic carbon (OC) and elemental carbon (EC) accounted for 27.7%~54.3% and 4.4%~17.1% of the total mass of PM2.5, respectively. Air pollutants mainly came from the mixed combustion state. The concentration of pollutants during the smoldering combustion state was relatively higher. With the increasing of moisture content, the duration of smoldering combustion state was prolonged significantly, which caused the emission factors of CO, CH4, PM2.5 and OC increased. The higher proportion of OC component was the main reason of increased PM2.5 emission.
