摘要
A reduction in gaseous pollutants is an important method for mitigating PM2.5 concentration in the atmosphere, and the reduction in SO2/NH3/NOx is beneficial to control secondary inorganic aerosols in PM2.5. In this study, the Weather Research and Forecasting model with Chemistry model (WRF-Chem) was applied to study the impact on the PM2.5 and its secondary inorganic aerosols using the scenario simulation method in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei (BTH) region. The results showed that the BTH region is characterized by being NH3-rich and having a higher [NH4+]/[SO42-] ratio in southern BTH, with a ratio of more than 6.0. Source contribution to PM2.5 was highest in the 30%_SO2_40%_NH3_40%_NOx scenario, with a contribution ratio of 6.8%, followed by 3.8% contribution in the 30%_SO2_40%_NH3 scenario, and a 3.4% contribution in the 30%_SO2_60%_NH3_60%_NOx scenario. These results indicate that synergistic reduction measures may be suitable for controlling PM2.5 concentrations. A lower sensitivity factor, & beta; value between PM2.5 and NH3 suggests that solely reducing NH3 emissions is not beneficial for the BTH region. However, this study indicates that the sensitivity of NO3- would improve significantly if NH3 emissions are reduced sharply. A slight reduction in NH3 was found to be beneficial for controlling NO3- in medium and small cities, while a significant decrease in NH3 would be more suitable for mega-cities. The study also observed that SO42- and its constituents continued to decrease with a consistent & beta; value of approximately 0.14 in the 30%_SO2_%_NH3 scenario and between 10.5 and 12.8 in the 30%_SO2_%_NH3_%_NOx scenario. These findings suggest that a synergistic reduction in SO2-NH3-NOx emissions may be more effective in reducing PM2.5 concentrations and its secondary inorganic aerosols (SIAs). However, it is important to ensure that the reduction in NH3 and NOx exceeds 60% in low SO2 concentration conditions.
