Measurement of Ozone Concentrations in Ambient Air Using a Badge-Type Passive Monitor

Abstract

A badge-type passive monitor was used to evaluate the effectiveness of four ozone trapping reagents for measuring O₃ concentrations in the air. These were sodium nitrite (NaNO₂), 3-methyl-2-benzothiazolinone acetone azine (MBTH), p-acetamidophenol (p-ATP), and indigo carmine. Experiments in an exposure chamber showed that only NaNO₂ and MBTH monitors gave sensitive and linear responses over realistic ranges of O₃ concentrations. When tested in ambient air, NaNO₂ and MBTH monitors with a single-layer diffusion barrier overestimated O₃ concentrations by a significant amount. This was largely canceled out in the NaNO₂ monitor by using a multi-layered diffusion barrier to combat wind turbulence effects. However it had almost no effect on the MBTH monitor, and it was found that NO₂ was a source of serious interference. We concluded that using the NaNO₂ monitor with an effective diffusion barrier can measure O₃ in ambient air with an accuracy of ±16%.

新形势下我国环境管理与改革取向

在"十三五"我国经济新常态的大逻辑下,环境管理机遇和挑战并存。污染欠账多、污染随着产业转移、政策执行走样、排污收费覆盖面窄、收取率低等,制约环境管理和环保产业的发展。对环境污染的严重性和复杂性、生态环境形势的十分严峻性,以及对污染治理的艰巨性和长期性,应当有一个清醒认识。扭转环境保护与经济发展不协调、不可持续状况,满足城乡居民日益高涨的环境诉求,必须调整环境管理思路,加快改革步伐,扭转环境保护"弱势"格局,厘清环境管理、环境事业和环境市场之间的关系,形成以排污许可证为依据的管理主线、以环境标准为准绳的倒逼机制,以环境司法裁定为常态的终身责任追究制度,创造一个人人守法、企业自觉治理污染和保护环境的社会氛围。
