A differential optical absorption spectrometer (DOAS) system was operated at Long Beach, CA during the 1987 SCAQS Fall episodes to measure atmospheric concentrations of nitrous acid (HONO), as well as ambient levels of nitrogen dioxide (NO 2) and formaldehyde (HCHO). The rapid scanning (-3000 spectra per min) spectrometer was interfaced to a 25 m basepath open, multiple reflection system operated routinely at a total optical path of 800 m. During several of the Fall episodes at Long Beach, levels of gaseous HONO were the highest (>15 ppb) reported to date by the DOAS technique. Although approximately half, to all, of the measured nighttime HONO concentrations could be accounted for by proposed heterogeneous formation pathways involving NO 2, HONO concentrations correlated well with primary pollutants such as CO and NO, suggesting that elevated nighttime HONO concentrations in the western end of the Los Angeles basin may be influenced by emissions of HONO from combustion sources. This has significant implications for models which assume HONO arises only from secondary formation, rather than a combination of direct emissions and atmospheric reactions. Estimates of hydroxyl (OH) radical production show that photolysis of HONO shortly after sunrise on these episode days produces a large pulse of OH radicals at a time of the day when OH production from photolysis of O 3 and HCHO is low. In terms of integrated OH radical production, HONO is of comparable importance to HCHO and much more important than O 3 during these Fall periods. 相似文献

The dark reaction of NO x and H 2O vapor in 1 atm of air was studied for the purpose of elucidating the recently discussed unknown radical source in smog chambers. Nitrous acid and nitric oxide were found to be formed by the reaction of NO 2 and H 2O in an evacuable and bakable smog chamber. No nitric acid was observed in the gas phase. The reaction is not stoichiometric and is thought to be a heterogeneous wall reaction. The reaction rate is first order with respect to NO 2 and H 2O, and the concentrations of HONO and NO initially increase linearly with time. The same reaction proceeds with a different rate constant in a quartz cell, and the reaction of NO 2 and H 218O gave H 18ONO exclusively. Taking into consideration the heterogeneous reaction of NO 2 and H 2O, the upper limit of the rate constant of the third-order reaction NO + NO 2 + H 2O → 2HONO was deduced to be (3.0 ± 1.4) × 10 ?10 ppm ?2-min ?1, which is one order of magnitude smaller than the previously reported value. Nitrous acid formed by the heterogeneous dark reaction of NO 2 and H 2O should contribute significantly to both an initially present HONO and a continuous supply of OH radicals by photolysis in smog chamber experiments. 相似文献

We investigated the heterogeneous processes that contribute towards the formation of N 2O in an environment that comes as closely as possible to exhaust conditions containing NO and SO 2 among other constituents. The simultaneous presence of NO, SO 2, O 2, and condensed phase water in the liquid state has been confirmed to be necessary for the production of significant levels of N 2O. The maximum rate of N 2O formation occurred at the beginning of the reaction and scales with the surface area of the condensed phase and is independent of its volume. The replacement of NO by either NO 2 or HONO significantly increases the rate constant for N 2O formation. The measured reaction orders in the rate law change depending upon the choice of the nitrogen reactant used and were fractional in some cases. The rate constants of N 2O formation for the three different nitrogen reactants reveal the following series of increasing reactivity: NO < NO 2 < HONO, indicating the probable sequential involvement of those species in the elementary reactions. Furthermore, we observed a complex dependence of the rate constant on the acidity of the liquid phase where both the initial rate as well as the yield of N 2O are largest at pH=0 of a H 2SO 4/H 2O solution. The results suggest that HONO is the major reacting N(III) species over a wide range of acidities studied. The N 2O formation in synthetic flue gas may be simulated using a relatively simple mechanism based on the model of Lyon and Cole. The first step of the complex overall reaction corresponds to NO oxidation by O 2 to NO 2 mainly in the gas phase, with the presence of both H 2O and active surfaces significantly accelerating NO 2 production. Subsequently, NO 2 reacts with excess NO to obtain HONO which reacts with S(IV) to result in N 2O and H 2SO 4 through a complex reaction sequence probably involving nitroxyl (HON) and its dimer, hyponitrous acid. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

The surface reaction of NO 2 and H 2O vapor to emit HONO into the gas phase was studied in the evacuable and bakeable photochemical chamber under the irradiation of UV-visible light (? 290 nm). Kinetic analysis of the NO, NO 2, and HONO with the aid of computer modeling strongly suggested that the formation of HONO by the surface reaction is photoenhanced. When a linear regression was assumed, the photoenhancement factor defined by {( k′ 21/ k21) ? 1} was expressed as (6.8 ± 2.5) k1 under our experimental conditions, where k1 is the primary photolysis rate of NO 2, and k21, k′ 21 are the second-order-equivalent rate constants of the HONO formation reaction in dark and under irradiation, respectively. The discussion was made that this photocatalitic enhancement of HONO formation would explain the nature of the extra OH radical flux in the smog chamber experiments, which has been discussed as “unknown radical source” and has still been unexplained by the surface dark reaction of NO 2 and H 2O to emit HONO. 相似文献

The formation of nitrous acid (HONO) in the dark from initial concentrations of NO 2 of 0.1–20 ppm in air, and the concurrent disappearance of NO 2, were monitored quantitatively by UV differential optical absorption spectroscopy in two different environmental chambers of ca.4300- and 5800-L volume (both with surface/volume ratios of 3.4 m ?1). In these environmental chambers the initial HONO formation rate was first order in the NO 2 concentration and increased with the water vapor concentration. However, the HONO formation rate was independent of the NO concentration and relatively insensitive to temperature. The initial pseudo-first-order consumption rate of NO 2 was (2.8 ± 1.2) × 10 ?4 min ?1 in the 5800-L Teflon-coated evacuable chamber and (1.6 ± 0.5) × 10 ?4 min ?1 in a 4300-L all-Teflon reaction chamber at ca.300 K and ca.50% RH. The initial HONO yields were ca.40–50% of the NO 2 reacted in the evacuable chamber and ca.10–30% in the all-Teflon chamber. Nitric oxide formation was observed during the later stages of the reaction in the evacuable chamber, but ca.50% of the nitrogen could not be accounted for, and gas phase HNO 3 was not detected. The implications of these data concerning radical sources in environmental chamber irradiations of NO x? organic-air mixtures, and of HONO formation in polluted atmospheres, are discussed. 相似文献

The oxidation kinetics of NO by O 2 in aqueous solution was observed using a stopped flow apparatus. The kinetics follows a third order rate law of the form k · [NO] 2 · [O 2] in analogy to gas-phase results. The rate constant at 296 K was measured as (6.4 ± 0.8) · 10 6 M ?2 s ?1 with an activation energy of 2.3 kcal/mol and a preexponential factor of (4.0 ± 0.5) · 10 8 M ?2 s ?1. The rate constant displays a very slight pH dependence corresponding to less than a factor of three over the range 0 to 12. The system NO/O 2 in aqueous solution is an efficient nitrosating agent which has been tested using phenol as a substrate over the pH range 0 to 12. The rate limiting step leading to formation of 4-nitrosophenol is the formation of the reactive intermediate whose competitive hydrolysis yields HONO or NO 2?. The absence of NO 3? in the autoxidation of NO, the exclusive presence of NO 2? as a product of the nitrosation reaction of phenol, and the kinetic results of the N 3? trapping experiments point towards N 2O 3 as the reactive intermediate. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

Photochemical reactions of trace compounds in snow have important implications for the composition of the atmospheric boundary layer in snow-covered regions and for the interpretation of concentration profiles in snow and ice regarding the composition of the past atmosphere. One of the prominent reactions is the photolysis of nitrate, which leads to the formation of OH radicals in the snow and to the release of reactive nitrogen compounds, like nitrogen oxides (NO and NO 2) and nitrous acid (HONO) to the atmosphere. We performed photolysis experiments using artificial snow, containing variable initial concentrations of nitrate and nitrite, to investigate the reaction mechanism responsible for the formation of the reactive nitrogen compounds. Increasing the initial nitrite concentrations resulted in the formation of significant amounts of nitrate in the snow. A possible precursor of nitrate is NO 2, which can be transformed into nitrate either by the attack of a hydroxy radical or the hydrolysis of the dimer (N 2O 4). A mechanism for the transformation of the nitrogen-containing compounds in snow was developed, assuming that all reactions took place in a quasi-liquid layer (QLL) at the surface of the ice crystals. The unknown photolysis rates of nitrate and nitrite and the rates of NO and NO 2 transfer from the snow to the gas phase, respectively, were adjusted to give an optimum fit of the calculated time series of nitrate, nitrite, and gas phase NO x with respect to the experimental data. Best agreement was obtained with a ∼25 times faster photolysis rate of nitrite compared to nitrate. The formation of NO 2 is probably the dominant channel for the nitrate photolysis. We used the reaction mechanism further to investigate the release of NO x and HONO under natural conditions. We found that NO x emissions are by far dominated by the release of NO 2. The release of HONO to the gas phase depends on the pH of the snow and the HONO transfer rate to the gas phase. However, due to the small amounts of nitrite produced under natural conditions, the formation of HONO in the QLL is probably negligible. We suggest that observed emissions of HONO from the surface snow are dominated by the heterogeneous formation of HONO in the firn air. The reaction of NO 2 on the surfaces of the ice crystals is the most likely HONO source to the gas phase. 相似文献

Flow reactor experiments were performed over wide ranges of pressure (0.5–14.0 atm) and temperature (750–1100 K) to study H 2/O 2 and CO/H 2O/O 2 kinetics in the presence of trace quantities of NO and NO 2. The promoting and inhibiting effects of NO reported previously at near atmospheric pressures extend throughout the range of pressures explored in the present study. At conditions where the recombination reaction H + O 2 (+M) = HO 2 (+M) is favored over the competing branching reaction, low concentrations of NO promote H 2 and CO oxidation by converting HO 2 to OH. In high concentrations, NO can also inhibit oxidative processes by catalyzing the recombination of radicals. The experimental data show that the overall effects of NO addition on fuel consumption and conversion of NO to NO 2 depend strongly on pressure and stoichiometry. The addition of NO 2 was also found to promote H 2 and CO oxidation but only at conditions where the reacting mixture first promoted the conversion of NO 2 to NO. Experimentally measured profiles of H 2, CO, CO 2, NO, NO 2, O 2, H 2O, and temperature were used to constrain the development of a detailed kinetic mechanism consistent with the previously studied H 2/O 2, CO/H 2O/O 2, H 2/NO 2, and CO/H 2O/N 2O systems. Model predictions generated using the reaction mechanism presented here are in good agreement with the experimental data over the entire range of conditions explored. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

This paper reports the results of the chemical composition modeling for an atmospheric pressure DC air discharge with water cathode. The modeling was based on the combined solution of Boltzmann equation for electrons, equations of vibrational kinetics for ground states of N 2, O 2, H 2O and NO molecules, equations of chemical kinetics and plasma conductivity equation. Calculations were carried out using experimental values of E/N and gas temperatures for the discharge currents range of 20–50 mA. The effect of H 2O concentration on the plasma composition was studied. The main particles of plasma were shown to be O 2(a 1Δ, b 1Σ), O( 3P), NO, NO 2, HNO 3, H 2O 2 and OH. Effective vibrational temperatures of molecules were higher than gas temperature and they did not depend on the discharge current. Distribution functions on vibrational levels for N 2, O 2, H 2O and NO ground states were non-equilibrium ones. 相似文献

Reactive species generated in the gas and in water by cold air plasma of the transient spark discharge in various N2/O2 gas mixtures (including pure N2 and pure O2) have been examined. The discharge was operated without/with circulated water driven down the inclined grounded electrode. Without water, NO and NO2 are typically produced with maximum concentrations at 50% O2. N2O was also present for low O2 contents (up to 20%), while O3 was generated only in pure O2. With water, gaseous NO and NO2 concentrations were lower, N2O was completely suppressed and HNO2 increased; and O3 was lowered in O2 gas. All species production decreased with the gas flow rate increasing from 0.5 to 2.2 L/min. Liquid phase species (H2O2, NO2 ̄, NO3 ̄, ·OH) were detected in plasma treated water. H2O2 reached the highest concentrations in pure N2 and O2. On the other hand, nitrites NO2 ̄ and nitrates NO3 ̄ peaked between 20 and 80% O2 and were associated with pH reduction. The concentrations of all species increased with the plasma treatment time. Aqueous ·OH radicals were analyzed by terephthalic acid fluorescence and their concentration correlated with H2O2. The antibacterial efficacy of the transient spark on bacteria in water increased with water treatment time and was found the strongest in the air-like mixture thanks to the peroxynitrite formation. Yet, significant antibacterial effects were found even in pure N2 and in pure O2 most likely due to high ·OH radical concentrations. Controlling the N2/O2 ratio in the gas mixture, gas flow rate, and water treatment time enables tuning the antibacterial efficacy. 相似文献

Hydrogen peroxide formation in the photooxidation of CO? NO x, ethene? NO x, and propene? NO x mixtures has been determined in the TVA 31 cubic meter smog chamber under the following conditions: [NO x] ca. 22–46 ppb; ethene = 0.22–1.1 ppm, [propene] = 0.12–0.97 ppm; [H 2O] ca. 8 × 10 ?3 ppm. Ethene, propene, NO, NO x, PAN, HCHO, and CH 3CHO were also monitored. Computer modeling was performed using the gas phase ethene and propene mechanism of the Regional Acid Deposition Model. There is good agreement between the model predicted and observed H 2O 2 concentrations. However, to successfully model all the propene? NO x experimental results, organic nitrate formation from the reaction of peroxy radicals with NO must be included in the mechanism. 相似文献

The kinetics and mechanisms of the HCO reactions with HONO and HNOH have been studied at the G2M level of theory based on the geometric parameters optimized at BH&HLYP/6‐311G(d,p). The rate constants in the temperature range 200–3000 K at different pressures have been predicted by microcanonical RRKM and/or variational transition state theory calculations with Eckart tunneling corrections. For the HCO + HONO reaction, hydrogen abstraction from trans‐HONO and cis‐HONO by HCO produces H 2CO + NO 2, with the latter being dominant. Two other channels involving cis‐HONO by the association/decomposition mechanism via the HC(O)N(O)OH intermediate, which could fragment to give H 2O + CO + NO at high temperatures, were also found to be important. For the HCO + HNOH reaction, three reaction channels were identified: one association reaction giving a stable intermediate, HC(O)N(H)OH (LM2), and two hydrogen abstraction channels producing H 2CO and H 2NOH. The dominant products were predicted to be the formation of LM2 at low temperatures and H 2NOH + CO at middle and high temperatures. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Nitrous acid(HONO),as a primary precursor of OH radicals,has been considered one of the most important nitrogencontaining species in the atmosphere.Up to 30%of primary OH radical production is attributed to the photolysis of HONO.However,the major HONO formation mechanisms are still under discussion.During the Campaigns of Air Quality Research in Beijing and Surrounding Region(CAREBeijing2006)campaign,comprehensive measurements were carried out in the megacity Beijing,where the chemical budget of HONO was fully constrained.The average diurnal HONO concentration varied from 0.33 to 1.2 ppbv.The net OH production rate from HONO,POH(HONO)net,was on average(from 05:00 to 19:00)7.1×106 molecule/(cm3 s),2.7 times higher than from O3 photolysis.This production rate demonstrates the important role of HONO in the atmospheric chemistry of megacity Beijing.An unknown HONO source(Punknown)with an average of 7.3×106molecule/(cm3 s)was derived from the budget analysis during daytime.Punknown provided four times more HONO than the reaction of NO with OH did.The diurnal variation of Punknown showed an apparent photo-enhanced feature with a maximum around 12:00,which was consistent with previous studies at forest and rural sites.Laboratory studies proposed new mechanisms to recruit NO2 and J(NO2)in order to explain a photo-enhancement of of Punknown.In this study,these mechanisms were validated against the observation-constraint Punknown.The reaction of exited NO2 accounted for only 6%of Punknown,and Punknown poorly correlated with[NO2](R=0.26)and J(NO2)[NO2](R=0.35).These results challenged the role of NO2 as a major precursor of the missing HONO source. 相似文献

The effects of NO on the decomposition of CH 3ONO have been investigated in the temperature range 450–520 K at a constant pressure of 710 torr using He as buffer gas. The measured time-dependent concentration profiles of CH 3ONO, NO, N 2O, and CH 2O can be quantitatively accounted for with a general mechanism consisting of various reactions of CH 3O, HNO, and (HNO) 2. The results of kinetic modeling with sensitivity analyses indicate that the disappearance rate of CH 3ONO is weakly affected by NO addition, whereas that of the HNO intermediate strongly altered by the added NO. In the presence of low NO concentrations, the modeling of N 2O yields leads to the rate constant for the bimolecular reaction, HNO + HNO → N 2O + H 2O (25): In the presence of high NO concentrations (P NO > 50 torr), the modeling of CH 2O yields gives the rate constant for the termolecular radical formation channel, HNO + 2NO → HN 2O + NO 2 (35): Discussion on the mechanisms for reactions (25) and (35), and the alkyl homolog of (35), RNO + 2NO, is presented herein. © John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

Rate coefficients, k1, for the reaction OH + HONO → H 2O + NO 2, have been measured over the temperature range 298 to 373 K. The OH radicals were produced by 266 nm laser photolysis of O 3 in the presence of a large excess of H 2O vapor. The temporal profiles of OH were measured under pseudo-first-order conditions, in an excess of HONO, using time resolved laser induced fluorescence. The measured rate coefficient exhibits a slight negative temperature dependence, with k1 = (2.8 ± 1.3) × 10 ?12 exp((260 ± 140)/T) cm 3 molecule ?1 s ?1. The measured values of k1 are compared with previous determinations and the atmospheric implications of our findings are discussed. 相似文献

By utilizing a fully floating double electrical probe system, the conductivity of a linear atmospheric pressure plasma jet, utilizing nitrogen as process gas, was measured. The floating probe makes it possible to measure currents in the nanoamp range, in an environment where capacitive coupling of the probes to the powered electrodes is on the order of several kilovolts. Using a chemical kinetic model, the production of reactive nitrogen oxide and hydrogen-containing species through admixture of ambient humid air is determined and compared to the measured gas conductivity. The chemical kinetic model predicts an enhanced diffusion coefficient for admixture of O 2 and H 2O from ambient air of 2.7 cm 2 s ?1, compared to a literature value of 0.21 cm 2 s ?1, which is attributed to rapid mixing between the plasma jets and the surrounding air. The dominant charge carriers contributing to the conductivity, aside from electrons, are NO +, NO 2 ? and NO 3 ?. Upon admixture of O 2 and H 2O, the dominant neutral products formed in the N 2 plasma jet are O, NO and N 2O, while O 2( 1Δ g) singlet oxygen is the only dominant excited species. 相似文献

The reaction H 2O +( 2B)+NO 2( 2A) → H 2O( 1A) + NO 2+( 1Σ) occurs at near the collision rate constant 1.2 × 10 ?9 cm 3 s ?1, in spite of the fact that the reactants produce both a singlet and a triplet state and the products correlate only with the singlet state. This would be expected to yield a statistical weight factor of to be multiplied by the collision rate constant to obtain the maximum charge-tranfer rate constant. The triplet products of the charge transfer are clearly endothermic. The singlet—triplet intersection has not been identified but the available information about the singlet and triplet states of the intermediate protonated nitric acid molecule is discussed. Four other examples of apparent “spin violation” charge-transfer reactions have been noted H 2O + + NO, N 2O + + NO.CO + + NO and CH 4+ + O 2. 相似文献

The reaction of CH 2O with NO 2 has been studied with a shock tube equipped with two stabilized ew CO lasers. The production of CO, NO, and H 2O has been monitored with the CO lasers in the temperature range of 1140–1650 K using three different Ar-diluted CH 2O-NO 2 mixtures. Kinetic modeling and sensitivity analysis of the observed CO, NO, and H 2O production profiles over the entire range of reaction conditions employed indicate that the bimolecular metathetical reaction, NO 2 + CH 2O → HONO + CHO (1) affects most strongly the yields of these products. Combination of the kinetically modeled values of ?? 1 with those obtained recently from a low temperature pyrolytic study, ref. [8], leads to for the broad temperature range of 300–2000 K. 相似文献

The atmospheric role of photochemical processes involving NO 2 beyond its dissociation limit (398 nm) is controversial. Recent experiments have confirmed that excited NO 2* beyond 420 nm reacts with water according to NO 2*+H 2O→HONO+OH. However, the estimated kinetic constant for this process in the gas phase is quite small ( k≈10 −15–3.4×10 −14 cm 3 molecule −1 s −1) suggesting minor atmospheric implications of the formed radicals. In this work, ab initio molecular dynamics simulations of NO 2 adsorbed at the air–water interface reveal that the OH production rate increases by about 2 orders of magnitude with respect to gas phase, attaining ozone reference values for NO 2 concentrations corresponding to slightly polluted rural areas. This finding substantiates the argument that chemistry on clouds can be an additional source of OH radicals in the troposphere and suggests directions for future laboratory experimental studies. 相似文献

New experimental results were obtained for the mutual sensitization of the oxidation of NO and methane in a fused silica jet‐stirred reactor operating at 10 5 Pa, over the temperature range 800–1150 K. The effect of the addition of sulfur dioxide was studied. Probe sampling followed by online FTIR analyses and off‐line GC‐TCD/FID analyses allowed the measurement of concentration profiles for the reactants, stable intermediates, and final products. A detailed chemical kinetic modeling of the present experiments was performed. An overall reasonable agreement between the present data and modeling was obtained. According to the present modeling, the mutual sensitization of the oxidation of methane and NO proceeds via the NO to NO 2 conversion by HO 2 and CH 3O 2. The conversion of NO to NO 2 by CH 3O 2 is more important at low temperatures (800 K) than at higher temperatures (850–900 K) where the production of NO 2 is mostly due to the reaction of NO with HO 2. The NO to NO 2 conversion is favored by the production of the HO 2 and CH 3O 2 radicals yielded from the oxidation of the fuel. The production of OH resulting from the oxidation of NO accelerates the oxidation of the fuel: NO + HO 2 → OH+ NO 2 followed by OH + CH 4→ CH 3. In the lower temperature range of this study, the reaction further proceeds via CH 3 + O 2→ CH 3O 2; CH 3O 2+ NO → CH 3O + NO 2. At higher temperatures, the production of CH 3O involves NO 2: CH 3+ NO 2→ CH 3O. This sequence of reactions is followed by CH 3O → CH 2O + H; CH 2O +OH → HCO; HCO + O 2 → HO 2 and H + O 2 → HO 2 → CH 2O + H; CH 2O +OH → HCO; HCO + O 2 → HO 2 and H + O 2 → HO 2. The data and the modeling show that unexpectedly, SO 2 has no measurable effect on the kinetics of the mutual sensitization of the oxidation of NO and methane in the present conditions, whereas it frequently acts as an inhibitor in combustion. This result was rationalized via a detailed kinetic analysis indicating that the inhibiting effect of SO 2 via the sequence of reactions SO 2+H → HOSO, HOSO+O 2 → SO 2+HO 2, equivalent to H+O 2?HO 2, is balanced by the reaction promoting step NO+HO 2 → NO 2+OH. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
