Abstract This study aims to understand the effect of the Domestic Emission Control Area (DECA) policy on ambient SO2 and particle components in Shanghai. Online single particle analysis and SO2 measurements from 2015 to 2017 were compared to analyze the long-term variations before and after the DECA policy. Our study showed that there was a significant decrease in SO2 by 27–55% after the implementation of the DECA policy. The number fraction of ship-emitted particles increased along with the increase in ship traffic activity, but the particles tended to contain lower-vanadium content. The elemental carbon component decreased, while the organic carbon components increased after switching oil. One thousand and ninety four ship fuel oil samples were collected. The oil sample analysis confirmed the ambient particle results; sulfur content decreased in domestic ship heavy fuel oils from 2013 to 2018; in the low sulfur fuel oils used after the DECA policy, vanadium was still highly correlated with sulfur as it was in high-sulfur fuels. Our results suggested that heavy fuel oil is still a major part of the low-sulfur ship oils in use. The multiple-component control including organic pollutants regarding low sulfur fuel oils may be necessary for preventing air pollution from ship emissions.
