Modern PAH-Analysis and Fate of PAH in Air

  • Chapter
Mobile Source Emissions Including Policyclic Organic Species

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((ASIC,volume 112))

Abstract

Current analytical methods for the determination of PAH in environmental samples require the separation of individual compounds, either by thin layer or high performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection, or better, by gas chromatography on capillary columns, coupled to a flame ionisation detector or a mass spectrometer. Modern thermostable capillary columns will allow the elution of PAH in the molecular weight range above coronene. Prior isolation of PAH as a compound class by liquid-liquid partition and column chromatography is necessary before most of these techniques can be applied.
