PAH Concentrations In The City Of Zagreb And In A Rural Place With Wood Industry
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are widely distributed atmospheric pollutants produced by incomplete combustion of fossil fuels and other organic materials. Their sources include forest fires, volcanic eruptions, motor exhausts, industrial processes, heating, wood industry, tobacco smoke, and many other). The aim of this study was to compare PAH concentrations in PM10 particles between Zagreb (A), the Croatian capital, and a rural place (B) in the hills of Gorski Kotar. The measuring site A was located in the center of Zagreb with high population and traffic density. Population at the rural site (B) is scarce, but houses use wood for heating and there is a developed wood industry. PAH concentrations were measured in the winter when air PAH concentrations are expected to be much higher than in the summer because of heating. We measured the concentrations of fluoranthene, pyrene, benzo(a)anthracene, chrisene, benzo(b)fluoranthene, benzo(k)fluoranthene, benzo(a)pyrene, dibenzo(ah)anthracene, benzo(ghi)perilene, and indeno(1, 2, 3, cd)pyrene using a high performance liquid chromatograph (HPLC) and a fluorescence detector with changeable excitation and emission wavelength. The results show that concentrations of some PAHs were higher at site B than site A, or were comparable.
