Determinação de Ácidos Carboxílicos na Atmosfera Urbana de São Paulo: uma abordagem analítica e ambiental

Abstract: Recebido em 2/5/96; aceito em 26/9/96 CARBOXYLIC ACIDS MEASUREMSNTS IN URBAN AIR OF SÃO PAULO CITY. AN ANA-LYTICAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL APPROACH. In this work, analytical strategies are evaluated in order to measure accurately the ambient levels of atmospheric organic acids. Environmental considerations about the determination of low molecular weight mono-and di-carboxylic acids from urban areas of São Paulo are described.Keywords: carboxylic acids; analytical strategy; São Paulo urban atmosphere.

“…The resulting ratio may be taken as an indicator of direct emission (low ratio, < 1) and in situ formation by photochemical processes (high ratio, > 1). 14,[20][21][22] Our formaldehyde/acetaldehyde ratios from tunnel circulating vehicles fueled mainly with gasohol (JQT) were lower than 1 and ratios from tunnel circulating vehicles fueled with diesel and gasohol (MMT) were approximately equal to 1. In a previous study, available data on formaldehyde and acetaldehyde measured in JQT have also presented ratios < 1 (ratio = 0.85) (CETESB, 2000a), as well as aldehydes exhaust emissions data from gasohol engine of Brazilian vehicles (ratio = 0.57).…”

“…3 Mixing ratios of volatile hydrocarbons emitted from vehicles inside tunnels of several cities have been reported worldwide. 2,[4][5][6][7] In some urban centers of Brazil, there have been reports on tunnel measurements of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in airborne particles, [8][9][10] gaseous aldehydes, [11][12][13] gaseous carboxylic acids 14 and VOCs. 15 In order to evaluate chemical composition of emissions from vehicles fueled with gasoline blends with ethanol, neat ethanol and diesel, measurements of several VOCs were done in two different urban road tunnels located in São Paulo City, Brazil.…”

“…As mais importantes substâncias ácidas inorgânicas na atmosfera são H 2 SO 4 e HNO 3 (Tabela 14). Dos ácidos orgânicos, os presentes em maior quantidade são o ácido fórmico e o ácido acético 119,120 . A contribuição relativa de compostos ácidos na acidez da precipitação depende do tipo da fase aquosa e local de coleta (Tabela 15).…”

“…Em vários estudos razões ácido fórmico/ácido acético menores que 1 têm sido usadas para sugerir emissão veicular direta [60]. Uma razão ácido fórmico/ácido acético de 1:4, muito próxima à observada no TPJQ, foi encontrada no mesmo túnel em experimentos realizados em 1996 [19]. Por outro lado, no TMM a razão encontrada foi 1:2.…”
