THE ROLE OF SOOT AND PRIMARY OXIDANTS IN ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY*

T. NOVAKOV Applied Science Division, Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory, University of California, Berkeley, California 94720, USA

ABSTRACT This paper discusses the role of soot in atmospheric sulfur chemistry. A methodology for estimating the primary and secondary particulate carbon concentrations is outlined. The relationship between ambient S02, sulfate, and primary carbon is examined; and certain regularities in their behavior are defined. An explanation of these regularities is proposed, based on a mechanism involving oxygen chemisorbed on combustion-generated carbon particles and its subsequent reaction with aqueous sulfite.

INTRODUCTION Carbon is the largest elemental fraction of atmospheric aerosol particles and is found in many different chemical and physical forms.

These carbonaceous par-

ticles play important roles in atmospheric chemistry and physics and are crucially involved in a number of ecological and environmental effects, including human health.

These may be broadly classified according to their origin or

structure, using the following definitions: Total carbon, C - Total particulate carbonaceous material. Black carbon, C b - Combustion-produced black particulate carbon having a graphitic microstructure. Primary carbon, C'

Particulate carbon derived directly from sources, being

the sum of primary organic species, C'o, and black carbon.

The term "soot," Cs,

is synonymous with primary carbon derived from combustion. Secondary carbon, C" - Organic particulate carbon formed by atmospheric reactions from gaseous precursors, defined as C" = C - C'. The units of all these quantities are micrograms of carbon, either per cubic meter of air or per square centimeter of filter. This paper discusses i) methods for determining the concentrations of primary and secondary carbonaceous material, 2) an examination of evidence that suggests a chemical link between the carbonaceous fraction and other aerosol species such as sulfates, and 3) the role of primary carbonaceous species in the atmospheric *This work was supported by the Director, Office of Energy Research, Office of Health and Environmental Research, Physical and Technological Research Division of the U.S. Department of Energy under contract DE-ACO3-76SFO0098 and by the National Science Foundation under contract ATM 82-10343.

The EGA-based approach to the differ-

After normalization o£

the black carbon peak (because this is unchanged by secondary mechanisms), the difference between the thermogram of an ambient sample and the primary thermogram is due to the secondary carbon.

This method was used to estimate the pri-

mary and secondary carbon in a number of samples from the Los Angeles area, collected during intense smog episodes when the highest concentrations of secondary carbon are expected (ref.8).

The samples were collected simultaneously at

a receptor site (Duarte) and a source-dominated site (Lennox). The potential of the EGA method is illustrated in Fig. 3, with thermograms of a daytime and a nighttime sample from the receptor site.

Because

thermograms of the nighttime samples from this location were found to be similar to those at the source-dominated site, the B and y peaks have been identified as belonging to secondary carbon.

Detailed descriptions of the procedure and dis-

cussions of the chemical nature of secondary carbon are presented in ref. 8. The results of these analyses agree well with theoretical source apportionment calculations
