[Chemical Composition and Source Analysis of PM in Yuncheng, Shanxi Province in Autumn and Winter].

In order to reveal the chemical composition characteristics and pollution sources of fine particulate matter (PM) in autumn and winter in Yuncheng, PM samples were continuously collected using a four-channel small-flow particulate sampler from October 15, 2018 to March 15, 2019. The study prediminantly analyzed the chemical components of water-soluble ions, elemental carbon, organic carbon, and metal elements. Additionally, the chemical mass reconstruction method of particulate matter and the positive matrix factorization model (PMF) were combined for an in-depth discussion.

[Pollution Characteristics and Health Risk Assessment of Heavy Metals in PM Collected in Baoding].

To reveal the pollution characteristics and the health risks of the trace heavy metals in the atmospheric particles in Baoding, Hebei province, PM2.5 samples were collected using a middle volume sampler, and the mass concentrations of V, Cr, Mn, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Cd, and Pb in the samples were determined by microwave digestion-inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). The results showed that the PM concentration in Baoding ranged from 16.
