Summary

This work presents an approach for modelling photochemical gaseous and aerosolphase processes in subgrid plumes from major localized (e.g. point) sources(``plume-in-grid'' modelling). This approach employs the Reactive Plume Model(RPM-AERO) which extends the regulatory model RPM-IV by incorporatingaerosol processes and heterogeneous chemistry. The physics and chemistry ofelemental carbon, organic carbon, sulphate, sodium, chloride and crustal materialof aerosols are treated and attributed to the PM size distribution. A modifiedversion of the Carbon Bond IV chemical mechanism is included to model theformation of organic aerosol. Aerosol dynamics modelled include mechanisms ofnucleation, condensation and gas/particle partitioning of organic matter.Comparison of the model with field data from a power plant plume in Mohave(Nevada) is quite satisfactory
