[Pollution Level and Sources of Organic Phosphorus Esters in Airborne PM2.5 in Chengdu City].

Organic phosphorus esters ( OPEs ) in atmospheric PM2.5 in Chengdu city was quantitatively determined by using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The distribution characteristic was discussed, back trajectory model and correlation analysis were used to study the sources of OPEs in PM2.5 in Chengdu city. The results showed that the annual average concentration of Σ7OPEs in atmospheric PM2.5 in Chengdu city was 6.46 ng x m(-3) for the urban site and was 9.38 ng x m(-3) for the suburb site. Due to the waste material recycling industries in the suburb area and the perennial dominant wind direction in Chengdu, the concentration of Σ7OPEs at suburb site was higher than that at urban site (P = 0.013). The atmospheric mixed degree influenced the distribution of OPEs in rural and urban area. The source of Σ7OPEs in atmospheric PM2.5 in Chengdu city was mainly from endogenous pollution which was mainly affected by the local sources around the samoling sites. while the contribution of the exogenous pollution was small.
