This study investigated the characteristics of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) formed during the decomposition of benzene (C(6)H(6)) in radio-frequency (RF) plasma environments. The identification and quantification were accomplished by using a GC/MS for PAHs and an on-line Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectrometer for the reactants and gaseous products. The analytical results sho...

Compositional distribution and sources of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in Nigerian oil-based drill-cuttings have been studied for evidence of petrogenic and/or pyrogenic effects with recommendations for the strict enforcement of the ban on the use of oil-based mud in drilling by government regulatory agencies and prior bio-treatment of the drill cuttings before final fate. Laboratory...

This paper presents a mathematical model of how rapidly polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) adsorb onto initially clean micron-size particles in the ambient air and how fast these substances are likely to be desorbed from the particles after deposition on the surface lining layer of the lung. Results show that, on the one hand, the very low gas-phase concentrations of PAHs in the ambient ai...

Tobacco smoke is a major source of human exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). The concentration of PAHs in lung tissue would reflect an individual's dose, and its variation could perhaps reflect cancer risk. Eleven PAHs were measured in 70 lung tissue samples from cancer-free autopsy donors by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. There were 37 smokers and 33 nonsmokers as estim...

This study aims to evaluate the carcinogenic risk of PAHs in the drinking water of counties along the Huai River in China and study their associations with high cancer incidence in local population. We investigated 20 villages with high cancer incidence rates as the risk group and 20 villages with low rates as the control group. Water samples from each village were collected in the winter and s...

Coke oven site soil was characterized to assess the particle association and availability of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). We identified various carbonaceous materials including coal, coke, pitch, and tar decanter sludge. Most of the PAHs were associated with the polymeric matrix of tar sludge or hard pitch as discrete particles, coatings on soil mineral particles, or complex aggrega...

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are very toxic and persistent environmental contaminants. This study was undertaken to assess the concentrations and possible sources of 16 PAHs (Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons) classified by the United State Environmental Protection Agency as priority pollutants in water and sediments of the Mvudi and Nzhelele Rivers. Effluents from Thohoyandou wastewater tre...

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) on virgin polystyrene (PS) and PS marine debris led us to examine PS as a source and sink for PAHs in the marine environment. At two locations in San Diego Bay, we measured sorption of PAHs to PS pellets, sampling at 0, 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months. We detected 25 PAHs using a new analytical method with comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography couple...

Weihe River is a typical river located in the arid and semi-arid regions of Northwest China. In this study, the distribution and sources of 16 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in Weihe River were investigated. The concentrations of ∑PAHs ranged from 351 to 4427 ng/L with a mean value of 835.4 ng/L in water dissolved phase (WDP), from 3557 ng/L to 147,907 ng/L with a mean value of 20,780 ...

Background and purpose: Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are one of the widespread and persistent contaminant throughout the nature. The main origin that introduced this contamination to environment is oil and oil products. The main objective of this study was determination of Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) PAHs list compounds in surface sediments of Hara Protected Zone and comp...
