Publikation Study on the chemical character of water soluble organic compounds in fine atmospheric aerosol at the Jungfraujoch(Springer, 07/2001) Krivácsy, Zoltán; Gelencsér, András; Kiss, Gyula; Mészáros, Ernő; Molnár, Ágnes; Hoffer, András; Mészáros, Tamás; Sárvári, Zsolt; Temesi, Dóra; Varga, Bálint; Baltensperger, Urs; Nyeki, Stephan; Weingartner, ErnestIn this study the chemical nature of the bulk of water soluble organic compounds in fine atmospheric aerosol collected during summer 1998 at the Jungfraujoch, Switzerland (3580 m asl) is characterised. The mass concentration of water soluble organic substances was similar to those of major inorganic ions, and the water soluble organic matter was found to be composed of two main fractions: (i) highly polyconjugated, acidic compounds with a varying degree of hydrophobicity and (ii) slightly polyconjugated, neutral and very hydrophilic compounds. The contribution of both fractions to the total water soluble organic carbon was about 50%. Separation into individual components was impossible either by HPLC or capillary electrophoresis which indicates the presence of a high number of chemically similar but not identical species. Results obtained by ultrafiltration and HPLC-MS have shown that the molecular weights are of the order of several hundreds. Most of the protonation constants for the acidic compounds determined by capillary electrophoresis were in the range 10⁴-10⁷.01A - Beitrag in wissenschaftlicher ZeitschriftPublikation Properties of jet engine combustion particles during the PartEmis experiment. Microphysics and Chemistry(Wiley, 15.07.2003) Petzold, Andreas; Stein, Claudia; Nyeki, Stephan; Gysel, Martin; Weingartner, Ernest; Baltensperger, Urs; Giebl, Heinrich; Hitzenberger, Regina; Döpelheuer, Andreas; Vrchoticky, Susi; Puxbaum, Hans; Johnson, M.; Hurley, Chris D.; Marsh, Richard; Wilson, Chris W.The particles emitted from an aircraft engine combustor were investigated in the European project PartEmis. Measured aerosol properties were mass and number concentration, size distribution, mixing state, thermal stability of internally mixed particles, hygroscopicity, and cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) activation potential. The combustor operation conditions corresponded to modern and older engine gas path temperatures at cruise altitude, with fuel sulphur contents (FSC) of 50, 410, and 1270 μg/g. Operation conditions and FSC showed only a weak influence on the microphysical aerosol properties, except for hygroscopic and CCN properties. Particles of size D ≥ 30 nm were almost entirely internally mixed. Particles of sizes D < 20 nm showed a considerable volume fraction of compounds that volatilise at 390 K (10–15%) and 573 K (4–10%), while respective fractions decreased to <5% for particles of size D ≥ 50 nm.01A - Beitrag in wissenschaftlicher Zeitschrift
