Sources of particulate matter forming smog in the atmosphere include ()

The sources of atmospheric smog particles include: the sources of atmospheric smog particles include industrial emissions, traffic exhaust, agricultural activities, biomass combustion and so on.

Haze, as its name implies, is fog and haze. But there is a big difference between fog and haze. The aerosol system composed of dust, sulfuric acid, nitric acid and other particles in the air causes visual impairment, which is called smog. Haze is haze.

Fog is an aerosol system consisting of a large number of tiny water droplets or ice crystals suspended in the air near the ground. It mostly occurs in autumn and winter (which is also one of the reasons for the large-scale haze weather in China in June 20 13), and it is the product of water vapor condensation (or condensation) in the near-surface air.

The existence of fog will reduce air transparency and worsen visibility. If the horizontal visibility of the target drops below 1000 meters, the weather phenomenon of water vapor condensation (or condensation) suspended in the air near the ground is called fog.

Haze is composed of particles such as dust, sulfuric acid, nitric acid and organic hydrocarbons in the air. It will also make the atmosphere turbid, blur the vision and worsen the visibility. If the horizontal visibility is less than 65,438+00,000 meters, the sight distance obstacle caused by this non-aqueous aerosol system is called haze or dust haze, and the Hong Kong Observatory calls it haze.

Haze is mainly composed of sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides and inhalable particles. The first two are gaseous pollutants, and the last particulate matter is the main reason for aggravating smog weather pollution. Together with the fog, they make the sky gloomy in an instant.

The abbreviation of particulate matter is PM, and Beijing monitors fine particulate matter (PM2.5), that is, pollutant particles with aerodynamic equivalent diameter less than or equal to 2.5 microns. This particle itself is not only a pollutant, but also a carrier of toxic substances such as heavy metals and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.

The distribution of haze particles is relatively uniform, and the size of haze particles is relatively small, ranging from 0.00 1 micron to 10 micron, with an average diameter of about 1 ~ 2 micron. Floating particles are invisible to the naked eye. Because the smog is composed of dust, sulfuric acid, nitric acid and other particles, the longer the scattering wavelength, the more the light ratio, so the smog looks yellow or orange-gray.
