Solid Waste Burning: An Overlooked Atmospheric Source of p‑Phenylenediamine Antioxidants and Their Quinones

Listed in ZivaHub

<i>N</i>,<i>N</i>′-Disubstituted <i>p</i>-phenylenediamines (PPDs) and their oxidized derivatives (PPD-Qs) are widely used as rubber antioxidants, but their atmospheric sources remain incompletely characterized.

Description

Here we systematically investigate solid waste burning as a previously overlooked source of atmospheric PPDs and PPD-Qs. Field measurements of uncontrolled open burning and controlled incineration, combined with suspect screening and targeted analysis, revealed distinct emission profiles.

Suspect screening detected and annotated 47 PPD-related features (20 confirmed, five tentatively identified, and 22 provisionally annotated), with more features detected in open burning PM<sub>2.5</sub> (<i>n</i> = 43) than in incineration PM<sub>2.5</sub> (<i>n</i> = 27). Quantitative analysis showed that open burning predominantly emitted parent PPDs at higher concentrations (median: 11.54 μg/g PM<sub>2.5</sub>), whereas incineration was characterized by a higher relative abundance of PPD-Qs (median: 2.50 μg/g PM<sub>2.5</sub>).

In a screening-level esimate for China, open burning accounted for more than 99.7% of the estimated emissions of the 10 targeted ∑(PPDs + PPD-Qs) from solid waste burning in China. These findings suggest that solid waste burning is an overlooked source of atmospheric PPDs and PPD-Qs, indicating the need to incorporate waste disposal into emission inventories and targeted emission control strategies.
