Aerosol pH and liquid water content determine when particulate matter is sensitive to ammonia and nitrate availability

Nitrogen oxides (NOx) and ammonia (NH3) from anthropogenic and biogenic emissions are central contributors to particulate matter (PM) concentrations worldwide. The response of PM to changes in the emissions of both compounds is typically studied on a case- ...

Nitrate removal and young stream water fractions at the catchment scale

Paolo Benettin, Li Li

Despite extensive research on nitrate export and removal, nutrient contamination remains a major threat to water bodies worldwide. At the local scale, nitrate removal is governed by biogeochemical conditions that vary in space and time, making integration ...

Anion Selection Criteria for Water-in-Salt Electrolytes

Corsin Battaglia, David Reber, Maximilian Becker

Water-in-salt electrolytes have enabled the development of novel high-voltage aqueous lithium-ion batteries. This study explores the reasons why analogous sodium electrolytes have struggled to reach the same level of electrochemical stability. Solution str ...

Understanding nitrate formation in a world with less sulfate

Athanasios Nenes

SO2 emission controls, combined with modestly increasing ammonia, have been thought to generate aerosol with significantly reduced acidity for cases in which sulfate is partially substituted by nitrate. However, neither expectation agrees with decadal o ...

PH of Aerosols in a Polluted Atmosphere: Source Contributions to Highly Acidic Aerosol

Athanasios Nenes, Haiming Yu

Acidity (pH) plays a key role in the physical and chemical behavior of PM2.5. However, understanding of how specific PM sources impact aerosol pH is rarely considered. Performing source apportionment of PM2.5 allows a unique link of sources pH of aerosol f ...

Highly Active and Stable Iridium Pyrochlores for Oxygen Evolution Reaction

Nicola Marzari, Ivano Eligio Castelli

Proton exchange membrane water electrolysis (PEMWE) is a promising technology for electricity-to-fuel conversion which allows for direct production of hydrogen from water. One of the key problems limiting widespread implementation of PEMWE into energy syst ...

Nitrate formation during ozonation as a surrogate parameter for abatement of micropollutants and the N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) formation potential

Urs von Gunten, Florian Frédéric Vincent Breider, Jun Ma, Yang Song

In this study, nitrate formation from ammonium and/or dissolved organic nitrogen (DON) was investigated as a novel surrogate parameter to evaluate the abatement of micropollutants during ozonation of synthetic waters containing natural organic matter (NOM) ...

Aerosol water parameterisation: A single parameter framework

Athanasios Nenes

We introduce a framework to efficiently parameterise the aerosol water uptake for mixtures of semi-volatile and non-volatile compounds, based on the coefficient, vi. This solute-specific coefficient was introduced in Metzger et al. (2012) to accurately par ...

Fine particle pH and the partitioning of nitric acid during winter in the northeastern United States

Athanasios Nenes, Hairun Guo

Particle pH is a critical but poorly constrained quantity that affects many aerosol processes and properties, including aerosol composition, concentrations, and toxicity. We assess PM1 pH as a function of geographical location and altitude, focusing on the ...

Influence of crustal dust and sea spray supermicron particle concentrations and acidity on inorganic NO3- aerosol during the 2013 Southern Oxidant and Aerosol Study

Satoshi Takahama, Robin Lewis Modini

Inorganic aerosol composition was measured in the southeastern United States, a region that exhibits high aerosol mass loading during the summer, as part of the 2013 Southern Oxidant and Aerosol Study (SOAS) campaign. Measurements using a Monitor for AeRos ...
