We performed field exposure tests of carbon steel, zinc and copper at an urban site Guanyinqiao and a rural site Tieshanping inChongqing, then used grey relational analysis, based on the database of the whole corrosion project, to determine the order of the effect of environmental factors on corrosion rates of tested metals, and established dose-response functions for these three metals. The results showed that the two crucial agents of acidic environment, SO2 and H+, were common factors that contributed most to the corrosion of the tested metals. The established dose-response functions for outdoor carbon steel and zinc are proved applicable to use in Chongqing, but the function for copper needs further modifying. We employed these dose- response functions and general environmental data to elaborate the maps of corrosion rate respectively of carbon steel and zinc by geological information system (GIS) technique which help to identify areas of high corrosion damage risk. An acceptable annual average SO2 level of 21 μg/m3 for carbon steel and that of 61 μg/m3 for zinc are also put forward to control the air pollution impact on atmospheric corrosion in Chongqing urban areas.展开更多

The main aim of this paper is to perform monitoring of air dust pollution in the area by measuring of dust deposition, different metals associated with it, and probable adverse effects on human health. Concentrations of metals were measured by using Perkin-Elmer model Inductively Coupled Plasma and statistically evaluated with SPSS 17.0 statistical program. There was a correlation between some metals (Mn, Mo and Pb) and DD distribution. The daily limit values for concentration of DD proposed by national "Regulations on air quality" (200 mg/m^2d average annual value and 350 mg/m^2d high value) exceed at three measuring sites. The average maximum content of DD was 684.8 mg/m^2d downwind of CADDII, and the average minimum was 46.8 mg/m^2d at measuring site F. Concentrations of pollutants hazardous to the environment as Ni, Cr, Cu, Mo, Mn and Pb vary from one site to another.展开更多
