INDIA@COP22 Objective . This presentation explores the impact of VOC emissions on climate change. From a P2 perspective, VOCs are usually of interest due to their role in ground-level ozone production its impact on human health. www.indiaatcop22.org
Potential VOC Impacts on Climate INDIA@COP22 INDIA@COP22 Potential VOC Impacts on Climate . Direct Radiative Forcing Indirect Radiative Forcing Indirect CO2 www.indiaatcop22.org
Direct Radiative Forcing INDIA@COP22 INDIA@COP22 Direct Radiative Forcing . Depends on IR-absorption “Cross-Section” Highwood et al., 1999, Estimated Direct Radiative Forcing due to Non-Methane Hydrocarbons and found some VOCs are effective absorbers, but have very short lifetimes, so they are not important for direct forcing Depends on a molecule’s atmospheric lifetime Global Warming Potential (GWP) is calculated relative to CO2 Effect calculate for long time periods (typ. 100-yr) Short-lived compounds are hard to quantify VOC breakdown products quickly multiply Both reactants and products do not survive long enough to be “well-mixed” thus more difficult to model their effect www.indiaatcop22.org
INDIA@COP22 INDIA@COP22 Location of the absorption bands decide The effectiveness of a chemicals IR absorption for warming . Much of the spectrum is now saturated by the existing CO2 and water in the atmosphere; c.f. “atmospheric window” . www.indiaatcop22.org http://www.globalwarmingart.com/wiki/Image:Atmospheric_Transmission.png
Atmospheric Lifetimes of VOCs INDIA@COP22 Atmospheric Lifetimes of VOCs . Most VOCs have short atmospheric life time due to its photolysis reaction with OH radical, NO3 radical and reaction with ozone. A “climate forcer” is any gas or particle that alters the Earth’s energy balance by absorbing or reflecting radiation & “short-lived climate forcers” are those which stay in the atmosphere for a few days or weeks Ozone has life time of 4 to 18 days VOCs have life time in the range of minutes to ten of years www.indiaatcop22.org

Characterization of VOCs INDIA@COP22 Characterization of VOCs . Reactivity based on individual compounds Structure-based (QSAR) models e.g., alkanes more stable than alkenes MIR (Maximum Incremental Reactivity) POCP (photochemical ozone creation potential) Results from global/regional models POCP response to “pulse” of given compound or source More realistic/comprehensive view of indirect effect www.indiaatcop22.org

PRECURSOR OF OZONE ARE VOCs INDIA@COP22 PRECURSOR OF OZONE ARE VOCs . VOCs are organic substances which are volatile and are photochemically reactive. VOCs are part of the large hydrocarbon family includes a long list of individual substances, many of which are toxic & persistent Their sources are both natural and anthropogenic www.indiaatcop22.org

Conclusions Lifestyle emissions contribute to VOCs in Urban Areas INDIA@COP22 Conclusions . Lifestyle emissions contribute to VOCs in Urban Areas Contribution of VOCs in urban air towards ground level ozone is sufficient enough to warrant control of its emissions. Control strategies can be derived from the isopleths generated under the constraint of constant VOC/NOx ratio, because an upwind location, often do not reflect the conditions in downwind areas, where the VOC/NOx ratio is different. www.indiaatcop22.org
INDIA@COP22 Conclusions - contd . VOC/ NO2 ratios observed in Kolkata are primarily high indicating NO2 sensitive conditions. High rate of VOC emissions (due to local activity like biomass burning, roadside cooking etc.) increases the ratio of VOC to NO2 and makes NO2 sensitive conditions more likely. Health impacts of VOCs cannot be neglected Regular monitoring of VOCs must be taken up in order to ascertain proper VOC/NOx ratio so that appropriate control measures can be adopted www.indiaatcop22.org
