Characteristics of particulate-bound polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons emitted from industrial grade biomass boilers.
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are carcinogenic or mutagenic and are important toxic pollutants in the flue gas of boilers. Two industrial grade biomass boilers were selected to investigate the characteristics of particulate-bound PAHs: one biomass boiler retro-fitted from an oil boiler (BB1) and one specially designed (BB2) biomass boiler. One coal-fired boiler was also selected for c...
متن کاملHealth Risk Assessment of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons: A Review
Accepted: 29/12/2014 Abstract Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) are ubiquitous environmental contaminants and found almost everywhere. Most of PAHs are formed during the incomplete combustion of organic matter such as wood, petroleum product, coal and tar. These chemicals are biologically active and pose a risk for human health because of their potentially toxicity such as carcinogenicity...
متن کاملNitro - polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons - gas - particle partitioning , mass size
14 Nitro-polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (NPAH) are ubiquitous in polluted air but little is 15 known about their abundance in background air. NPAHs were studied at one marine and one 16 continental background site i.e., a coastal site in the southern Aegean Sea (summer 2012) and 17 a site in the central Great Hungarian Plain (summer 2013), together with the parent 18 compounds, PAHs. A Lagran...
متن کاملPolycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons Distribution in Fine and Ultrafine Particles Emitted from Diesel Engines
This paper presents the results of PAH determination adsorbed on fine and ultrafine particles emitted to the air from diesel exhaust, with a special emphasis on sample preparation procedure prior to HPLC-FL analysis. Samples were taken with a personal environmental monitor and personal cascade impactor in order to ensure size-segregated sampling of air particulate matter (in the range of the fo...
متن کاملDistribution of pesticides and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in house dust as a function of particle size.
House dust is a repository for environmental pollutants that may accumulate indoors from both internal and external sources over long periods of time. Dust and tracked-in soil accumulate most efficiently in carpets, and the pollutants associated with dust and soil may present an exposure risk to infants and toddlers, who spend significant portions of their time in contact with or in close proxi...
