Abstract
Abstract A method to analyze the most hazardous Polyclyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAH) (acenaphtene, anthracene, benzo(a) anthracene, benzo(a)pyrene, biphenyl, coronene, chrysene, dibenzo (a,h) anthracene, phenantrene, fluoranthene, fluorene, naphtalene and pyrene), by using excitation and energy constant synchronic fluorescence has been researched in depth in this study. Spectral studies carried out allow characteristic peaks to be obtained for the qualitative identification of 8 from 11 PAH tested. From the quantitative and interference studies, the most important analytical characteristics (linear range, detection limit and reproduciblity) for the determination of ten of these compounds have been obtained. The method was applied to the PAH determination in two different samples: 1) air filter samples for urban pollution control and 2) air samples from a laboratory scale coal carbonization oven. Fluorene (in the first type) and benzo (a) pyrene (in the second type), were identified and quantified.
