This work presents an approach for modelling photochemical gaseous and aerosol
phase 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 incorporating
aerosol processes and heterogeneous chemistry. The physics and chemistry of
elemental carbon, organic carbon, sulphate, sodium, chloride and crustal material
of aerosols are treated and attributed to the PM size distribution. A modified
version of the Carbon Bond IV chemical mechanism is included to model the
formation of organic aerosol. Aerosol dynamics modelled include mechanisms of
nucleation, 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
