Study on elemental speciation in airborne particulate matter by XANES
The study on elemental speciation in airborne particulate matter (PM) is important for its evaluation of toxicity and source of pollution. In the present work
samples of airborne PM were collected in different site and with different size
and the X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) spectra of Cr
Mn
Cu and Zn were measured. The oxidation state of these elements and possible chemical speciation are discussed using the spectra The results show that in our samples
the oxidation state of Cr is likely tervalent
Mn exists mainly as divalence
Cu also exists as divalence and Zn exists mainly as sulfate. The elemental concentrations in the samples were determined by proton induced X-ray emission (PIXE)
The difference in concentrations was observed for samples from different site and with different size
but obvious difference in speciation was not found.
