Sulfur oxide emissions from man-made sources consist primarily of sulfur dioxide. Both during emission and while in the atmosphere, gaseous sulfur dioxide can become oxidized to form sulfate (SO4) † particulate matter. The sulfate aerosol is mainly composed of sulfuric acid and corresponding salts such as ammonium sulfate.
