Characteristic Analysis and Health Risk Assessment of PM_2.5 and VOCs in Tianjin Based on High-Resolution Online Data.

ABSTRACT: This study leveraged 2019 online data of particulate matter (PM_2.5) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in Tianjin to analyze atmospheric pollution characteristics. PM_2.5 was found to be primarily composed of water-soluble ions, with nitrates as the dominant component, while VOCs were predominantly alkanes, followed by alkenes and aromatic hydrocarbons, with notable concentrations of propane, ethane, ethylene, toluene, and benzene. The receptor model identified six major sources of PM_2.5 and seven major sources of VOCs. The secondary source is the main contribution source, while motor vehicles and coal burning are important primary contribution sources in PM_2.5. And, industrial processes and natural gas volatilization were considered major cont
