Otimização de um mecanismo fotoquímico para a simulação da atmosfera urbana brasileira

Abstract: Recebido em 29/6/98; aceito em 30/6/99 OPTIMIZATION OF A PHOTOCHEMICAL MECHANISM FOR BRAZILIAN URBAN AIR QUALITY SIMULATION.A photochemical reaction mechanism for the description of air quality in Brazilian urban regions is described and evaluated by comparison with chamber experiments. The mechanism was developed for use in ozone modeling and application of control strategies. The oxidation of ethanol and methyl-ter-butyl-ether is also considered. Using this chemical model, a trajectory simulation of Brazil A… Show more

“…17 Secondary pollutants are formed in the atmosphere as a result of hydrolysis, oxidation and/or photochemical oxidation. 18 The pollutants that are often found in the atmosphere include carbon monoxide (CO), NO x , SO x , PM, VOC, O 3 and several greenhouse gases (GHGs), such as carbon dioxide (CO 2 ), methane (CH 4 ), nitrous oxide (N 2 O), chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and nitric acid (HNO 3 ).…”

“…21 In addition, many variables can influence the increase or decrease in the concentration of tropospheric ozone, such as: weather, geography and emissions in a given location. 17 The basic chemistry for the ozone formation is described in equations 1 to 3. Photodissociation of NO 2 su light λ < 0 nm) is the only significant anthropogenic source of O 3 in photochemical smog:…”

“…A formação de ozônio e outros oxidantes na troposfera é uma consequência das reações entre os óxidos de nitrogênio (NO x ) e as espécies orgânicas presentes na atmosfera, dentre elas os compostos orgânicos voláteis (COV) na presença de radiação ultravioleta [3].…”

“…Arbilla e Oliveira [3] estudaram uma forma de otimização de um mecanismo fotoquímico para a simulação da atmosfera urbana brasileira. Teceram considerações a respeito dos processos para formação do ozônio e outros oxidantes na troposfera e aplicaram um modelo, comparando com resultados reais, na cidade do Rio de Janeiro.…”
