摘要: Heavy fuel oil (HFO) particulate matter (PM) emitted by marine engines is known to contain toxic heavy metals, including vanadium (V) and nickel (Ni). The toxicity of such metals will depend on the their chemical state, size distribution, mixing state. Using online soot-particle aerosol mass spectrometry (SP-AMS), we quantified five (V, Ni, Fe, Na, Ba) in HFO-PM soot particles produced a diesel research engine. in-soot metal concentrations were compared in-PM2.5 measurements inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES). We found that <3% total PM2.5 was associated with particles, which may still be sufficient influence in-cylinder burnout rates. Since these most likely present as oxides, whereas studies lower-temperature boilers report predominance sulfates, this result implies HFO PM depends its combustion conditions. Finally, observed 4-to-25-fold enhancement th...
