Abstract:PAN online measurement, spatial source apportionment and reaction yield study were carried out in July of 2019 and 2021 in the border of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei, to evaluate the photochemical pollution potential of air masses originating from surrounding cities. The observations showed that the mean of PAN in the studied days of 2021 was (0.89±0.21)×10-9, about 63.8% lower than that in the studied days of 2019 [(2.45±0.71)×10-9]. Due to the very short lifetime of PAN in summer, PAN in the border was mainly decided by the photochemical reactions of air masses from surrounding cities that carried the abundant precursors NOx and VOCs. The yield rate of PAN presented the dual-peak pattern with the peak value of 3.08×10-9/h and 1.75×10-9/h respectively in July of 2019 and 2021, which was consistent with the interannual variation of PAN concentration. The higher values of potential source contribution function (PSCF) of PAN appeared within 50 km southeast of the PAN observation site in both studied months, indicating the bigger contribution of air mass transport from Tianjin to PAN in the border. The PAN formation potential and precursor NO2 were both the highest when the observation site was absolutely controlled by Tianjin air masses, which was about 2.03 and 2.01 as higher as those under Beijing air masses, and about 1.53 and 1.21 as higher as those under Langfang air masses. These indicated that the photochemical pollution potential of Tianjin air masses was the highest, which prominence compared to Beijing air masses mainly resulted from NOx and which compared to Langfang air masses resulted from both NOx and VOCs precursors.
