Nitrogen Dioxide Concentrations in the Atmosphere

چکیده
This Policy Position Statement outlines the technical challenges involved in the assessment and management of future concentrations of nitrogen dioxide (NO2) in the atmosphere. It notes that NO2 is the pollutant responsible for most breaches in European standards for air quality in the UK and that, as a result, a robust evidence based approach is required to assess future concentrations of this pollutant to allow good policy making.

Background: nitrogen oxides occur in the atmosphere in Six forms of namely: N2O , NO , NO2 , N2O3, N2O4 and N2O5 .Among these oxides NO2 is the most important air pollutant because of its relatively high toxicity and its ubiquity in ambient air. In this research Griess-Saltzman method was utilized for determination of nitric oxide and nitrogen dioxide in the atmosphere of different laboratori...

Surface ozone (O3) and its precursor’s gases (nitrogen monoxide (NO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), nitrogen oxides (NOx), carbon monoxide (CO), methane (CH4) and non-methane hydrocarbons (NMHCs), and sulfur dioxide (SO2) were measured in Yanbu, Saudi Arabia from January 2004-December 2004. The annual average concentrations of O3, NO, NO2, NOx, SO2, CO, CH4, TNMHCs and THC were 22.51 ppb, 15.58 ppb, ...

Concentrations of nitrogen dioxide (NO(2)), sulfur dioxide (SO(2)), ozone (O(3)), and ammonia (NH(3)) were determined in the ambient air of Al-Ain city over a year using the passive sampling method associated with ion chromatographic and potentiometric detections. IVL samplers were used for collecting nitrogen and sulfur dioxides whereas Ogawa samplers were used for collecting ozone and ammonia...
متن کاملDetermining Tropospheric Concentrations of Trace Gases from Space
Background The new observations of the tropospheric distributions of trace gases such as NO2 (nitrogen dioxide), SO2 (sulphur dioxide), HCHO (formaldehyde), BrO (bromine monoxide) and O3 (ozone), retrieved from GOME (Global Ozone Monitoring Experiment) measurements, herald the opening of a new era for tropospheric production, as a result of agricultural activities, and above all by vehicles suc...
