The result shows that the concentrations ofPAHs range from 47.94 to 46432.85ng/g while that of the total components of the 16 kinds of PAHs are 5969.81ng/g. PAHs with for rings and more than 4 rings are the main and important pollutants in topsoils of Xiaodian District. The main input of PAHs is combustion source, and the main pollution source in this area is fired coal. The topsoils in Xiaodian District are polluted by human activity in varying degrees. 23 of all 31 topsoil samples have been heavily polluted, especially those located nearby developed industrial townships and irrigation channels.展开更多

Crab samples were collected from two sites on the AI-Hilla River. Sixteen of PAils compounds were identified seasonally in these samples. High mean value was (72.06 μg/g), recorded by Dibenzo (a, h) anthracene (DbA) in Site 1 and low mean value was (0.36 μg/g) recorded by Anthracene (Ant) in Site 2. The study showed a clear variation in PAHs concentration independent from the seasons and locations. Site 1 recorded high value of HMW (high molecular weight) and LMW (low molecular weight) more than Site 2. The present study revealed that all PAHs compounds were from Pyrogenic Origin. Seven carcinogenic PAHs (cPAHs) were recorded in crab tissues that were collected from the AI-Hilla River. The TEF (toxicity equivalency factor) was calculated to toxicity equivalent crab concentration. From the results, the fresh water Crab Sesarma boulengeri is a good bioindicator to water pollution by PAHs.展开更多

The physical and chemical properties of the carbonized fibrous resins were measured. The sample pretreatment with ultrasonic extraction and subsequent clean-up elution through a silica gel column was optimized. The suitable ultrasonic extraction conditions were selected as follows: resin weight was 1.5 g, ultrasonic extraction time 20 min, volume of extraction solvent 100 ml and extraction operation times 2~3. The concentrated extractable organic matter was submitted to next step of clean-up procedure of adsorption chromatography on silica gel column/n-hexane and a mixture of dichloromethene:n-hexane solution 2:3 (v/v). The PAHs fractions in the real samples from Changzhou, China were particularly analyzed using GC-MS data system and the data of mass spectra, retention times and scan numbers of the real samples were compared with that of the standards of 16 PAHs listed by the US EPA as 損riority pollutants?of the environment. The analysis of the real samples indicates that the carbonized fibrous resin is a good sorbent. The pretreatment of samples of ambient air with carbonized fibrous resin as a sorbent for PAHs is proved to be reliable and might be used for the procedure of the determination of PAHs in atmospheric environment.展开更多
