The Relationships Between BTEX, NOx, and O3 Concentrations in Urban Air in Gdansk and Gdynia, Poland
Abstrakt
This paper presents the results of atmospheric air quality research conducted in the areas of two shipyard cities: Gdansk and Gdynia (Poland), in the period between March and December 2011. The purpose of the research was focused on determination of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylenes (BTEX) compounds in atmospheric air. Passive sampling technique, with Radiello® diffusive passive samplers, was used for BTEX sample collection from atmospheric air. The monthly average concentrations of BTEX compounds in the air surrounding the monitoring stations in Gdansk and Gdynia from March to December 2011 were as follows: benzene: 0.14–2.37 µg/m3, toluene: from 0.46 to 5.35 µg/m3, ethylbenzene: from 0.14 to 0.88 µg/m3, xylenes: from 0.67 to 3.02 µg/m3. Additionally, the results of the air quality assessment conducted in 2007–2011 in the monitored area are presented in relation to air concentrations of benzene (as a representative of BTEX compounds), nitrogen oxides, and tropospheric ozone. Based on the relationship between benzene concentration and nitrogen oxides concentration, the influence of the aforementioned chemicals on tropospheric ozone concentration was estimated in the urban area of Tricity by using data from Gdansk and Gdynia.
