Popis: To effectively investigate the characteristics, source analysis, and chemical conversions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) pollution in a typical petrochemical area, 81 VOC species from nine sampling sites were collected from 1st January to 31th December 2019 in Jinshan District. Results showed the concentration of VOCs was 51.63 ± 36.05 ppbv, and VOCs were dominated by alkane (40.10%) and alkenes (39.91%). The temporal variations of VOCs showed that the highest average VOC concentration appeared in July, and the lowest concentration of VOCs was in February. The concentration of VOCs was mainly connected with industrial processes and was transported to other areas through the downwind direction. Six PMF-derived sources including petrochemical industry, solvent utilization, vehicle exhaust, fuel evaporation, combustion, and other industry processes, contributing 37.08%, 16.74%, 16.69%, 14.99%, 9.53%, and 4.97%, respectively. Meanwhile, an anthropogenic VOC emission inventory was established by emission factors and the activity statistics for 2019, results indicated that the total emission of VOCs was estimated as 6.22 kt, petrochemical industry was the most important contributor of human-produced VOCs.
