Abstract

Organic nitrogen (ON) is an important part of atmospheric nitrogen deposition, but the content and distribution of components other than urea and amino acids are the blind area of current research. The deposition of organic amines (OA) in strategic water sources poses a great public health risk to unspecified populations. In order to further reveal the composition of about 50% soluble organic nitrogen, besides urea and amino acids, five functional sampling points (such as industrial area, agricultural area, urban area, tourism area and forest area) were set in the reservoir area to detect dissolved total nitrogen (DTN), dissolved organic nitrogen (DON) and OA components. The results show that the total nitrogen concentration was 6.42–10.82 mg/m 3 and the DON concentration was 2.77–4.99 mg/m 3 . Ten kinds of OA were detected: dimethylamine (DMA), diethylamine (DEA), propylamine (PA), butylamine (BA), pyrrolidine (PYR), dibutylamine (DBA), N-methylaniline (NMA), 2-ethylaniline (2-ELA), benzylamine (BMA), and 4-ethylaniline (4-ELA). The average concentrations were 7.64, 26.35, 14.51, 14.10, 18.55, 7.92, 10.56, 12.84, 13.46 and 21.00 ng/m 3 , respectively. The total concentration of ten OA accounted for 2.28–9.81% of DON in the current month, of which the content of DEA was the highest, reaching 0.71%, the content of 4-ELA, PYR, PA and BA was 0.4–0.56%, and the content of DMA, DBA and NMA was 0.2–0.36%. The sources of OA in the reservoir area have significant seasonal differences. The content is the highest in spring, followed by autumn, and lower in summer and winter. The rainfall in spring and autumn is small, the source of road dust is relatively high, and the rainfall in summer is large. After the particles in the air are washed by rain, the concentration of OA in the sample is the lowest. On account of spring and autumn being the time of frequent agricultural activities, the concentration of OA is significantly higher than that in winter and summer.
