Abstract Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are persistent organic pollutants (POPs) that widely distributed in the environment and cause significant environmental damage. Furthermore, they endanger human health by polluting food from natural processing. Therefore, it is necessary to accurately detect PAHs various sample matrices, which requires precise, practical, rapid detection methods....

Tar bitumens are increasingly being used as a binder in road works. They consist of a standard product of about 70% bitumen and 25-30% tar. Tar bitumens are classifiable as the pyrolysis products of organic materials and are applied hot. Depending on the temperature used there are emissions of various intensities of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), some of which are carcinogenic. A total...

Abstract The soil organic matter (SOM) is searched for the biomarkers and specific features associated with effect of wildfires by case study peat soil, Rheic Hemic Histosol (Lignic), in south middle taiga Komi Republic. It shown that fires considerably influence matter. Pyrogenic activity assessed according to content charcoal particles. SOM examined using solid-state 13 C-NMR spectroscopy det...

The PAHs transformation in the soils of coal mining enterprises impact zones and thermal power plants remains poorly studied. In turn, can be considered as a primary cycle production electricity. One main sources negative environmental is industry located on territory upland south East European Plain. features accumulation fuel energy have been studied example mines with different service life ...

Waste disposal is just one of the segments in solid municipal waste management system. During entire life cycle waste, starting from generation, through storage, collection, transport, recycling, treatment and disposal, several different pollutants are emitted. By disposing non-road mobile machinery (NRMM) emits various into air such as CO2, CO, NMVOC, PM, PAHs, heavy metals, etc. These substan...

To understand the interactions among eutrophication, algal bloom, and POPs (persistent organic pollutants) in freshwater ecosystems, cumulative selectivity of PAHs (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons) phytoplankton, water, sediment with different eutrophication level waters were identified a typical plain river network region located Nanjing City. Results showed that total 33 species belonging to...
