Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and organic pollutants
Combustion by-products that persist in the air, the water, and the soil
How the work is done
Solvent extraction of loaded filters, clean-up, and determination by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry against certified standards. Diagnostic concentration ratios to distinguish petrogenic from pyrogenic sources. Toxic equivalency calculation for health risk.
