1) Carbon Monoxide
• Most abundant air pollutant
• Produced by incomplete combustion
– insufficient O2
– low temperature
– short residence time
– poor mixing
• Major source is motor vehicle exhaust

2) Ozone: Health Effects
• Increased incidents of respiratory distress.
• Repeated exposures to ozone:
– Increased susceptibility to respiratory infection
– Lung inflammation
– Aggravation of pre-existing respiratory diseases, such as asthma.
– Decreases in lung function and increased respiratory symptoms, such as chest pain and cough.

Ozone: Environmental Effects
Ozone also affects vegetation and
ecosystems
– reductions in agricultural and commercial forest yields
– reduced growth and survivability of tree seedlings
– increased plant susceptibility to disease, pests, and other environmental stresses (e.g., harsh weather).

3) Oxides of Nitrogen (NOx)
• Primarily NO and NO2
• NO3, N2O, N2O3, N2O4, N2O5 are also known to occur
• Thermal NOx (created by oxidation of atmospheric N2
when T > 1000 K)
• Fuel NOx from oxidation of N in fuel (high temperature combustion processes in power plants and automobiles)

NOx-Health Effects
• NO => few health effects, but is oxidized to NO2
• NO2 => irritates lungs and promotes respiratory
infections
• NO2 => reacts with hydroxyl radicals to produce
nitric acid – acid rain
• NO2 => reacts with hydrocarbons in presence of
sunlight to produce smog

4) Photochemical Smog
hydrocarbons + NOx + sunlight →
photochemical smog (oxidants)
primary oxidants produced:
– ozone (O3)
– formaldehyde
– peroxyacetylnitrate (PAN)

5) Sulfur Oxides (SOx)
• SO2, SO3, SO42- formed during combustion of fuel
containing sulfur (coal, oil), metal smelting, other industrial processes.
• H2S released is converted to SO2

Sulfur Dioxide: Health Effects
• High concentrations of SO2 can result in temporary breathing impairment.
• Longer-term exposures to high concentrations of SO2, in conjunction with high levels of PM, include respiratory illness, alterations in the lungs defenses, and aggravation of existing cardiovascular disease
• Short-term exposures of asthmatic individuals to elevated SO2 levels may result in reduced lung function.

1) Acid Rain2) Decreased Visibility: SO2, NOx,
and VOC interact with other compounds in
the air to form fine particles.

6) Particulate Matter
• Solid or liquid particles with sizes from 0.005 – 100 µm (i.e., aerosols)
• Dust originates from grinding or crushing
• Fumes are solid particles formed when vapors condense
• Smoke describes particles released in combustion processes
• Smog used to describe air pollution particles

Particulate Matter
PM-10 (1987)
< 10 µm diameter; fuel combustion (45%); industrial processing (33%); transportation (22%)
Original standards did not account for size – larger particles that were not problematic dominated
PM-2.5 (1997)
< 2.5 µm diameter; Similar sources, but tend to be more toxicologically active particles; EPA estimates new standard will save 15,000 lives/yr

Particulate Matter: Health Effects
• Large particles trapped in nose
• Particles >10 µm removed in tracheobronchial system
• Particles <0.5 µm reach lungs but are exhaled with air
• Particles 2 – 4 µm most effectively deposited in lungs
Environmental Effects• Decreased visibility
• Damage to paints and building materials

Point-Source Gaussian Plume Model
• Model Structure and Assumptions
– pollutants released from a “virtual point source”
– advective transport by wind
– dispersive transport (spreading) follows normal (Gaussian) distribution away from trajectory
– constant emission rate
– wind speed constant with time and elevation
– pollutant is conservative (no reaction)
– terrain is flat and unobstructed
– uniform atmospheric stability

Air Pollution Control
• Stationary sources
– Pre-combustion controls (improved fuel quality)
– Combustion controls (improved combustion process)
– Post-combustion controls (capture emissions after they are formed but before they are released to the air)
• Motor vehicles
– Cleaner gasoline
– Exhaust system controls
– Improved engines
– Alternative fuels
