摘要
Abstract To understand the characteristics of chemical components and dicarboxylic acids, oxocarboxylic acids and α ‐dicarbonyls in atmospheric aerosols at underground coal fire environment, we collected fine aerosols (PM 2.5 ) from Wuhai, Inner Mongolia, North China, where the underground coal fire often occurs. PM 2.5 samples were analyzed for the measurements of carbonaceous components, stable carbon isotopic composition (δ 13 C) of total carbon, and molecular distribution and compound‐specific δ 13 C of diacids, oxoacids and α ‐dicarbonyls. Oxalic acid (C 2 ) was the most abundant species, accounting for 43.2%–63.1% (avg. 50.8%) of total diacids, followed by phthalic acid (Ph) (13.7%). Azelaic acid (C 9 ) was the third most (7.4%) abundant, followed by succinic (C 4 ) and malonic (C 3 ) acids. Significant correlations of C 2 diacid with glyoxylic ( ω C 2 ) and 3‐oxopropanoic ( ω C 3 ) acids and C 3 diacid and their δ 13 C implied that diacids and related compounds were mainly derived from the underground coal fire emissions and subsequent in situ secondary formation. Based on molecular distribution, seasonal pattern and linear relations of C 9 diacid with C 2 , C 3 , ω C 2 and ω C 3 as well as with Ph acid and total diacids, together with the comparability and similarity of its δ 13 C (−27.0 ± 0.9‰) with that of Ph acid and organic matter in coals, respectively, we found that the C 9 diacid has been mainly derived from its precursors such as unsaturated fatty acids emitted from underground coal fires and their subsequent in situ photochemical oxidation. However, further research is needed to confirm such an importance of coal combustion for azelaic acid loading in atmospheric aerosols.
