  7. Factor analysis eij - estimated error for data value in sample i and compound j sij - residual • Positive Matrix Factorization • First paper by Paatero in 1994 and most resent 2004 • X = GF + E, X - data matrix, G - scores, F - loadings, E - unexplained part of X • Point-by-point least square fit of components so that the non-negative constraint and weighting of the data points are used. • Correlation matrix is not used • Objective is to minimise Q: • Estimated errors are iteratively re-evaluated • Limits for high and low concentration outliers were used • Multilinear Engine (ME2) • Table-driven least squares program for solving multilinear problems • PMF model was done using ME2 scripting language

  8. Error estimation Error for compound j in sample i for PMF model j – Detection limit of compound j Cij – Concentration of compound j in sample i ij – Partition of compound j in particulate phase in sampling temperature of sample i Kp – Temperature correctedpartitioning coefficient CPM– Concentration of PM PLsO – Temperature corrected subcooled liquid vapor pressure m, b – Constants (Fernández et al. Environ. Sci. Technol. 2002,36, 1162-1168) Ts – Sampling temperature

  14. Summary • Particulate phase PAHs over the city of Athens are mostly traffic related. • Gasoline powered vehicles dominating the distribution, but their influence might be over estimated because of the higher portion of heavy PAH in their emissions. • Sampling conditions for environmental and source profile sampling should be closer to each other. • PMF is a powerful tool for source apportionment with capability of capturing profile changes caused by meteorology or chemistry
