[Water-soluble Inorganic Ion Content of PM and Its Change Characteristics in Urban Area of Beijing in 2022].

To explore the content and variation characteristics of water-soluble ions of atmospheric fine particles (PM) in a Beijing urban area and put forward the pollution prevention and control scheme, the water-soluble ions, gaseous precursors (SO, NO), and meteorological factors (temperature, RH) of PM in 2022 were analyzed and determined. The results showed that the water-soluble ions with the highest proportion in PM in the Beijing City urban area were NO, NH, and SO, accounting for 52.7% of PM. The mass concentrations of PM and SNA were lower than the historical results, whereas the proportion of SNA, SOR, and NOR was higher than the historical results. This showed that the fine particulate matter pollution in Beijing has been significantly improved, but it still has strong secondary pollution characteristics. NO/SO(2.2) was higher than those of historical and nearby provinces and cities, reflecting the expanding influence of mobile sources. In terms of seasonal variation, PM showed the characteristic of high in autumn and low in summer. The proportion of NO was the highest in autumn, spring, and winter; the proportion of SO was the highest in summer; and the proportion of NH changed little in each season. The seasonal variation rules of NOR and SOR were almost opposite, which reflected the difference in transformation factors between NOR and SOR. The main forms of SNA in the Beijing urban area were NHNO and (NH)SO. The neutralization degree of cations and anions was the highest in winter, the cation NH was slightly insufficient in summer, and NH was in excess in spring and autumn. The Beijing urban area was an ammonia-rich environment. In terms of pollution level, RH, particulate matter moisture, and water-soluble ions mass concentration all increased with the increase in pollution level, and SNA increased fastest, with its proportion in PM increasing first and then stabilizing, whereas the contribution rate of other water-soluble ions decreased gradually. In terms of spatial distribution, the mass concentration relationship of SNA at the central urban area and suburbs was NO > SO > NH, which reflected the pollution characteristics dominated by NO. The highest contribution rate of SNA to PM occurred in the eastern region, the central urban area, and the transmission point, indicating that the secondary reaction was relatively active in the central urban area and the eastern region, and the regional transport was also an important source of secondary ions.
