CHEMICAL ANALYSIS OF THE AEROSOL PARTICLE ON THE BALTIC COAST
Journal Title: Baltic Coastal Zone - Year 2006, Vol 10, Issue 1
Abstract
Berner cascade impactor was used to study urban aerosols in two localities of the Pomeranian macro-region Słupsk and Hel in autumn at different weather conditions. The range of aerodynamic diameters between 0.009 and 8.11 mm were separated. Elementary composition for each diameter was obtained in a complex procedure consisting of laser ablation of deposits then their successive ionization in inductively coupled plasma generator and finally mass selection in a quadrupole spectrometer. The chemical element analysis method proofs to be quick and versatile, allowing to dentify different sources of air pollution, natural, industrial and due to the road traffic.
