Distribution and Potential Sources of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Urban Surface Dust and Soil of Shanghai, China

Abstract:

Concentrations and profiles of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were measured in road dust and soil from different functional urban areas in Shanghai. The ΣPAHs concentrations varies from 99.4 to 66900 ng/g dw, where the highest one is found in dust from a chemical industry producing black carbon. The mean concentrations of ΣPAHs for dust increase in the following order of land uses: park and lake area DBahA > BbF > IDP > BkF > BaA > Chr, underlining the importance of BaP as a surrogate compound of a PAHs mixute.
