The chemical composition of fine particulate material was determined for samples collected in Bakersfield, CA, during February-March, 1998 using several diffusion denuder samplers, including the PC-BOSS, which measures both semivolatile fine particulate nitrate and organic material. An average of 56% of the fine particulate carbonaceous material was lost from the filters of the Particle Concentrator-Brigham Young University Organic Sampling System (PC-BOSS). A comparable amount of fine particulate semivolatile organic material was also lost from collected particles with single filter samplers, such as the PM 2.5 Federal Reference Method. The fraction of nitrate lost from collected particles was a function of temperature and humidity, with the biggest effect being due to temperature. The fraction of nitrate lost was comparable for conventional annular denuder samplers and the PM 2.5 FRM, averaging 33%. The nitrate loss from particles for the PC-BOSS was smaller, averaging 11%, possibly due to the concentration of particulate material prior to collection with this sampler. The loss of nitrate and semivolatile organic material during sample collection resulted in the PM 2.5 FRM sampler giving PM 2.5 mass that was an average of 30% (7.3 μg/m 3 ) lower than the true value and different from the true value from negligible to 20 μg/m 3 . |
