摘要

The Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 included a section devoted to the reduction of mobilernsource emissions through fuel reformulation in which the oxygen content of fuel is increased byrnadding compounds containing oxygen, termed oxygenates. Oxygenates used in oxygenated fuelrn(“oxyfbel”) include methyl tert-butyl ether‘ (MTBE) and ethanol. The resulting fuel shouldrndecrease the ozone-forming hydrocarbons and total air toxics. However, adding oxygenates torngasoline can increase the emissions of aldehydes and thus increase human exposure to these toxicrncompounds. The main objective of this work is to compare measured aldehyde exposures forrnpeople living in two urban areas to estimated aldehyde exposures calculated using exposurernmodels.rnSelected aldehydes (formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, acrolein, propionaldehyde, butyraldehyde,rncrotonaldehyde, glyoxal, methylglyoxal),VOCs (ethanol, MTBE, benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene,rnxylenes), and carbon monoxide (CO) were collected during periods of defined activity (scripts) inrnorder to characterize the pollutants present in certain microenvironments. Two urban areas werernchosen for the study. Sacramento, CAY was selected because of its use of MTBE, andrnMilwaukee, WI, was selected because of its use of ethanol. A total of 15 scripted monitoringrnperiods were conducted that covered 18 microevironments in Sacramento, CA during August andrnSeptember, 1999. Microenvironments sampled included various indoor and outdoor locations.rnFormaldehyde concentrations were lower in outdoor locations than in indoor locations; valuesrnranged fiom 5.3 μg/m~3 in parwgolf course to 27 μg/m~3 in a store. Acetaldehyde concentrationsrnfollowed a similar trend with values ranging from 3.2 μg/m~3 in an outdoor location to 78 μg/m~3rnin a restaurant. A preliminary step-wise linear regression of the data was performed to identifyrnthe best predictors of the measured value and the regression coefficients that reflect the typicalrnincrease in the measured value when the predictor variable is applied. In addition, the use ofrnGlobal Positioning System (GPS) monitors was useful to track sample collection locationsrnrelative to the city and fixed site monitors.
