Description

Method and system for detecting nano aerosol particles
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of environment detection, in particular to a method and a system for detecting nano aerosol particles.
Background
In the atmosphere environment, the nano aerosol mainly comes from traffic tail gas and industrial emission, has low self gravity sedimentation speed relative to submicron and micron-scale aerosol particles, can be transmitted in the air for medium and long distances, has very complex influence processes on human health, global radiation balance and other environmental processes, and needs to have enough knowledge on the particle size and chemical composition of the nano aerosol under different time and space for deep understanding of the influence of the nano aerosol on the environmental ecological cycle process.
At present, the online detection and analysis means of the particle size and chemical components of single aerosol particles are mainly single particle aerosol mass spectrometers. The single-particle aerosol mass spectrometer mainly comprises an aerosol sample injection system, a diameter measurement system and a flight time mass analysis system, wherein an external aerosol sample is introduced into the internal vacuum environment of the system by the aerosol sample injection system, is aggregated into a collimated particle beam based on particle inertia, and then enters the diameter measurement system and the flight time mass analysis system in an accelerating way, so that the flight speed and the mass spectrogram of single particles are sequentially measured, and the corresponding particle size and chemical composition are further obtained.
The single-particle aerosol mass spectrometer can monitor aerosol particles in the range of 0.1-2.5 microns in a conventional atmospheric environment on line, but has lower detection efficiency for particles below 0.1 microns, and is mainly limited by an aerosol sample injection system and a diameter measurement system. The aerosol sample injection system is mainly based on the principle of particle inertia, and performs step-by-step focusing through aerodynamic lenses of a plurality of pore plate structures, so that aerosol particles become collimated particle beams, and the collimated particle beams are accelerated through an acceleration nozzle and enter a subsequent detection system. The particle size of the nano aerosol particles is only between a few nanometers and tens of nanometers, the inertia is relatively weak, and the nano aerosol particles are difficult to effectively gather and sample through an aerosol sample injection system, so that the detection efficiency of a subsequent detection system is low or the detection cannot be performed; the diameter measuring system is usually a double-beam diameter measuring system based on the particle light scattering principle, the dimension of the nano particles is too small compared with the laser wavelength, and the scattering signal is weak, so that the flying speed of the particles cannot be effectively detected, and further the corresponding particle size cannot be measured, and the mass spectrogram of the corresponding particles cannot be accurately detected by the flying time mass analysis system.
In order to try to detect nano aerosol particles by a single-particle aerosol mass spectrometer, early students tried to introduce a differential electric mobility analyzer at the upstream of a sample injection system to screen and sample the particle size of the nano aerosol particles, and analyze the chemical components of the nano aerosol particles in a 'touch typing' mode, namely, fix the ionization laser frequency under the condition of not using a double-beam diameter measuring system, and randomly ionize the screened nano aerosol particles. The detection efficiency of the method is extremely low and is almost close to 0, and the data validity is also doubtful. Thus, there is little progress in the current research of the application of nano-aerosol particles on single particle mass spectrometers.
