The dust emission area was much smaller than the dry deposition area. Moreover, wind speed was an important factor causing dust weather, and the high wind speed areas were consistent with the high dust emission areas.

This has been achieved by introducing the concept of a resonant system between the modelling of human deposition of particles and the environmental data. Such resonant system is mathematically described by the resonance angle, a function linking the particle deposition efficiency for different particles size classes to the corresponding measured size distribution. From this resonance angle it is possible to calculate the probability of maximum deposition dose corresponding to the actual UFPs indoor contamination. This method has been applied to one-month measurements of UFPs in a university classroom in Rome, Italy. Results show that the average values of risk angle of deposition are time dependent and ranged between 46,4° and 62,6° for alveolar and bronchiole regions, respectively, confirming UFPs mainly impacting the deepest respiratory region. The risk of exposure to UFPs as described by the resonance angle resulted varying along the week and among the five pulmonary regions of concern.

The presence of hydrophilic components, confirmed by crystal structures and functional groups, was supported by the dust's small initial contact angle and short settling time. However, its low moisture content (1.24 %) highlighted poor water retention. To overcome this, molasses, an industrial by-product with excellent water retention and consolidation properties, was chosen as the primary component of the suppressant.

Focusing on seasonal pollution characteristics of Wuhai, this work analyzes the relationships between WSON and indicators such as water-soluble organic carbon, water-soluble ions, organic carbon, and elemental carbon, and elucidates the sources of WSON in Wuhai's PM<sub>2.5</sub>. The results indicated that WSON concentrations in PM<sub>2.5</sub> during the heating and non-heating seasons were 2.36 ± 2.14 μg/m<sup>3</sup> and 0.78 ± 0.37 μg/m<sup>3</sup>, respectively, showing a seasonal pattern with higher levels in the heating season, consistent with other chemical components of PM<sub>2.5</sub>. The significant correlations between WSON and SO<sub>4</sub><sup>2−</sup>, NO<sub>3</sub><sup>−</sup>, NH<sub>4</sub><sup>+</sup>, Cl<sup>−</sup>, K<sup>+</sup>, OC, and EC in both seasons suggested that the sources of WSON included secondary aerosol formation, coal combustion, biomass burning, and vehicle exhaust emissions in Wuhai. The N:C ratio indicated that amino acids and organic nitrates may be major components of WSON in the studied city. The NO<sub>3</sub><sup>−</sup>/SO<sub>4</sub><sup>2−</sup> ratio revealed that PM<sub>2.5</sub> level was primarily influenced by fixed combustion sources, particularly during the heating season. The PMF model showed significant seasonal differences in WSON sources, with coal combustion (56.61 % in heating season, 42.47 % in non-heating season) and vehicle emissions (30.87 % in heating season, 25.64 % in non-heating season) being major sources. This study is crucial for understanding atmospheric nitrogen cycles and estimating nitrogen deposition, and provides practical insights for controlling WSON pollution in northwestern inland cities with prominent seasonal pollution characteristics.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":8604,"journal":{"name":"Atmospheric Pollution Research","volume":"16 9","pages":"Article 102586"},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2025-05-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144138248","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
