Monitoring Techniques MSDSs Air pollution is defined as the presence in the outdoor at- mosphere of one or more contaminants (pollutants) in quantities and duration that can injure human, plant, or animal life or property (materials) or which unreasonably interferes with the enjoyment of life or the conduct of busi- ness. Examples of traditional contaminants include sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), hydrogen sulfide, particulate matter, smoke, and haze. This list of air pol- lutants can be subdivided into pollutants that are gases or particulates. Gases, such as sulfur dioxide and nitrogen ox- ides exhibit diffusion properties and are normally formless fluids that change to the liquid or solid state only by a combined effect of increased pressure and decreased tem- perature. Particulates represent any dispersed matter, solid or liquid, in which the individual aggregates are larger than single small molecules (about 0.0002 ␮ m in diameter) but smaller than about 500 micrometers ( ␮ m). Of recent at- tention is particulate matter equal to or less than 10 ␮ m in size, with this size range of concern relative to poten- tial human health effects. (One ␮ m is 10 Ϫ4 cm). Currently the focus is on air toxics (or hazardous air pollutants [HAPs]). Air toxics refer to compounds that are present in the atmosphere and exhibit potentially toxic ef- fects not only to humans but also to the overall ecosys- tem. In the 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments (CAAAs), the air toxics category includes 189 specific chemicals. These chemicals represent typical compounds of concern in the industrial air environment adjusted from workplace standards and associated quality standards to outdoor at- mospheric conditions. The preceding definition includes the quantity or con- centration of the contaminant in the atmosphere and its associated duration or time period of occurrence. This con- cept is important in that pollutants that are present at low concentrations for short time periods can be insignificant in terms of ambient air quality concerns. Additional air pollutants or atmospheric effects that have become of concern include photochemical smog, acid rain, and global warming. Photochemical smog refers to the formation of oxidizing constituents such as ozone in the atmosphere as a result of the photo-induced reaction of hydrocarbons (or VOCs) and nitrogen oxides. This phe- nomenon was first recognized in Los Angeles, California, following World War II, and ozone has become a major air pollutant of concern throughout the United States. Acid rain refers to atmospheric reactions that lead to precipitation which exhibits a pH value less than the nor- mal pH of rainfall (the normal pH is approximately 5.7 when the carbon dioxide equilibrium is considered). Recently, researchers in central Europe, several Scandinavian countries, Canada, and the northeastern United States, have directed their attention to the poten- tial environmental consequences of acid precipitation. Causative agents in acid rain formation are typically as- sociated with sulfur dioxide emissions and nitrogen oxide emissions, along with gaseous hydrogen chloride. From a worldwide perspective, sulfur dioxide emissions are the dominant precursor of acid rain formation. Another global issue is the influence of air pollution on atmospheric heat balances and associated absorption or reflection of incoming solar radiation. As a result of in- creasing levels of carbon dioxide and other carbon-con- taining compounds in the atmosphere, concern is growing that the earth’s surface is exhibiting increased temperature levels, and this increase has major implications in shifting climatic conditions throughout the world. Sources of Air Pollution Air pollutant sources can be categorized according to the type of source, their number and spatial distribution, and the type of emissions. Categorization by type includes nat- ural and manmade sources. Natural air pollutant sources include plant pollens, wind-blown dust, volcanic eruptions, and lightning-generated forest fires. Manmade sources in- clude transportation vehicles, industrial processes, power plants, municipal incinerators, and others. ©1999 CRC Press LLC Pollutants: Sources, Effects, and Dispersion Modeling 5.1 SOURCES, EFFECTS, AND FATE OF POLLUTANTS POINT, AREA, AND LINE SOURCES Source categorization according to number and spatial dis- tribution includes single or point sources (stationary), area or multiple sources (stationary or mobile), and line sources. Point sources characterize pollutant emissions from in- dustrial process stacks and fuel combustion facility stacks. Area sources include vehicular traffic in a geographical area as well as fugitive dust emissions from open-air stock piles of resource materials at industrial plants. Figure 5.1.1 shows point and area sources of air pollution. Included in these categories are transportation sources, fuel combus- tion in stationary sources, industrial process losses, solid waste disposal, and miscellaneous items. This organization of source categories is basic to the development of emis- sion inventories. Line sources include heavily travelled highway facilities and the leading edges of uncontrolled forest fires. GASEOUS AND PARTICULATE EMISSIONS As stated earlier, air pollution sources can also be catego- rized according to whether the emissions are gaseous or particulates. Examples of gaseous pollutant emissions in- clude carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, sulfur dioxide, and nitrogen oxides. Examples of particulate emissions include smoke and dust emissions from a variety of sources. Often, an air pollution source emits both gases and particulates into the ambient air. PRIMARY AND SECONDARY AIR POLLUTANTS An additional source concept is that of primary and sec- ondary air pollutants. This terminology does not refer to the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQSs), nor is it related to primary and secondary impacts on air quality that result from project construction and opera- tion. Primary air pollutants are pollutants in the atmos- phere that exist in the same form as in source emissions. Examples of primary air pollutants include carbon monox- ide, sulfur dioxide, and total suspended particulates. Secondary air pollutants are pollutants formed in the at- mosphere as a result of reactions such as hydrolysis, oxi- dation, and photochemical oxidation. Secondary air pol- lutants include acidic mists and photochemical oxidants. In terms of air quality management, the main strategies are directed toward source control of primary air pollu- tants. The most effective means of controlling secondary air pollutants is to achieve source control of the primary air pollutant; primary pollutants react in the atmosphere to form secondary pollutants. EMISSION FACTORS In evaluating air quality levels in a geographical area, an environmental engineer must have accurate information on the quantity and characteristics of the emissions from numerous sources contributing pollutant emissions into the ambient air. One approach for identifying the types and estimating the quantities of emissions is to use emission factors. An emission factor is the average rate at which a pollutant is released into the atmosphere as a result of an activity, such as combustion or industrial production, di- vided by the level of that activity. Emission factors relate the types and quantities of pollutants emitted to an indi- cator such as production capacity, quantity of fuel burned, or miles traveled by an automobile. EMISSION INVENTORIES An emission inventory is a compilation of all air pollution quantities entering the atmosphere from all sources in a geographical area for a time period. The emission inven- tory is an important planning tool in air quality manage- ment. A properly developed inventory provides informa- tion concerning source emissions and defines the location, FIG. 5.1.1Source categories for emission inventories. Area and point sources Chemical process industries Food and agricultural industries Metallurgical industries Mineral product industries Petroleum refining industries Residential fuel Commercial and institutional fuel Industrial fuel Steam electric power plant fuel Motor vehicles Off-highway fuel usage Aircraft Trains Vessels Gasoline-handling evaporative losses Onsite and municipal incineration Open burning Forest fires Structural fires Coal refuse burning Agricultural burning Fuel combustion in stationary sources Transportation sources Emissions from industrial process losses Solid waste disposal Miscellaneous ©1999 CRC Press LLC ©1999 CRC Press LLC magnitude, frequency, duration, and relative contribution of these emissions. It can be used to measure past successes and anticipate future problems. The emission inventory is also a useful tool in designing air sampling networks. In many cases, the inventory is the basis for identifying air quality management strategies such as transportation con- trol plans, and it is useful for examining the long-term ef- fectiveness of selected strategies. NATIONWIDE AIR POLLUTION TRENDS Based on source emission factors and geographically based emission inventories, nationwide information can be de- veloped. Figure 5.1.2 summarizes nationwide air pollution emission trends from 1970 to 1991 for six key pollutants. The figure shows significant emission reductions for total suspended particulates, VOCs, carbon monoxide, and lead. The greatest reduction from 1982–1991 was an 89% reduction in lead levels in the air resulting primarily from 1970 1980 1991 Sulfur dioxide emissions Total suspended particulates Nitrogen oxides emissions VOCs Carbon monoxide emissions Lead emissions Million Tons Per Year Million Tons Per Year Million Tons Per Year Million Tons Per Year Million Tons Per Year Thousand Tons Per Year 30 25 20 15 10 5 0 25 20 15 10 5 0 25 20 15 10 5 0 30 25 20 15 10 5 0 140 120 100 80 60 40 20 0 1970 1980 1991 1970 1980 1991 1970 1980 1991 1970 1980 1991 1970 1980 1991 1970 1980 1991 250 200 150 100 50 0 FIG. 5.1.2Air pollution emission trends in the United States, 1970–1991.

In addition, the gradual phase in of cleaner automobiles and powerplants reduced atmospheric levels of carbon monoxide by 30%, nitrogen oxides by 6%, ozone by 8%, and sulfur dioxide by 20%. Levels of fine particulate matter (PM-10, other- wise known as dust and soot) dropped 10% since the PM- 10 standard was set in 1987 (Council on Environmental Quality 1993). Despite this progress, 86 million people live in U.S. counties where the pollution levels in 1991 exceeded at least one national air quality standard, based on data for a single year. Figure 5.1.3 shows this data. Urban smog continues to be the most prevalent problem; 70 million people live in U.S. counties where the 1991 pollution lev- els exceeded the standard for ozone. Many areas release toxic pollutants into the air. The latest EPA toxics release inventory shows a total of 2.2 bil- lion lb of air toxics released nationwide in 1990 (Council on Environmental Quality 1993). The primary sources of major air pollutants in the United States are transportation, fuel combustion, indus- trial processes, and solid waste disposal. Figures 5.1.4 through 5.1.9 show the relative contribution of these sources on a nationwide basis for particulates, sulfur ox- ides, nitrogen oxides, VOCs, carbon monoxide, and lead. Table 5.1.1 contains statistics on the emissions from key sources of these six major pollutants. Figure 5.1.10 shows anthropogenic sources of carbon dioxide emissions, mainly fuel combustion, from 1950–1990. Table 5.1.2 contains information on the source contributions. Solid and liquid fuel combustion have been the major contributors. 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 1970 1975 1980 1983 1985 1987 1991 Million Metric Tons Transportation SolidWaste Fuel Combustion Miscellaneous Industrial Processes FIG. 5.1.4U.S. emissions of particulates by source, 1970–1991.
