2023, Case Studies in Chemical and Environmental EngineeringPolycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in surface waters from the seven main river basins of China: Spatial distribution, source apportionment, and potential risk assessment
2021, Science of the Total EnvironmentCitation Excerpt :Specifically, the PAH levels in the Chinese river basin were discernibly higher than those in most rivers worldwide, such as the River Elbe, Germany (Götz et al., 1998), Seine River, France (Fernandes et al., 1997), Ganges River, India (Sharma et al., 2018), Tiber River, Italy (Patrolecco et al., 2010), and Mississippi River, USA (Mitra and Bianchi, 2003); but lower than Gomti River, India (Malik et al., 2011) and the Bangsai River, Bangladesh (Hossain et al., 2016). Generally, the water across the seven river basins of China was highly polluted with PAHs, which may be due to rapid economic development, high population density, and the high level of consumption of coal, oil, and other energy resources in China, leading to the excessive direct emission of PAHs (Nie, 2013; Hao et al., 2007; Zhang and Chen, 2017). In order to quantify the carcinogenicity of PAHs relative to BaP, the BaP equivalency (BaPeq) of PAHs was calculated using the TEF method (Nisbet and LaGoy, 1992).
Contamination and human health risks of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in surface soils from Tianjin coastal new region, China
2021, Environmental PollutionCitation Excerpt :For example, they were comparable to those in urban and rural soils from Dalian, China (1100 ng g−1) (Wang et al., 2007) and Switzerland (71–8460 ng g−1) (Desaules et al., 2008), agricultural soils from Delhi, India (830 ng g−1) (Agarwal et al., 2009) and Czech Republic (847 ng g−1) (Holoubek et al., 2009), as well as urban soils from Ljubljana, Slovenia (989 ng g−1) and Torino, Italy (857 ng g−1) (Morillo et al., 2007), but were much lower than those detected in urban soils collected from Chengdu, China (3110 ng g−1) (Zheng et al., 2018), Agra, India (12,100 ng g−1) (Masih and Taneja, 2006), Bergen, Norway (6780 ng g−1) (Haugland et al., 2008), New Orleans, US (2930 ng g−1) (Mielke et al., 2004), and Glasgow, UK (11,900 ng g−1) (Morillo et al., 2007). However, the Σ16PAHs concentrations in Tianjin surface soils were notably higher than urban park soils in Beijing, China (460 ng g−1) (Qu et al., 2020), urban and rural soils in Hong Kong, China (54.6 ng g−1) (Zhang et al., 2006), and agricultural soils in Nanjing, China (178 ng g−1) (Yin et al., 2008), Shantou, China (318 ng g−1) (Hao et al., 2007), Shunde, China (144 ng g−1) (Li et al., 2008), Xinzhou, China (202 ng g−1) (Zhao et al., 2014), Korea (236 ng g−1) (Nam et al., 2003), and Poland (252 ng g−1) (Maliszewska-Kordybach et al., 2009). This result may be because sampling sites in this study are mainly located near the industrial area.
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in soils and sediments in Southwest Nigeria
2020, Environmental PollutionCitation Excerpt :The results presented in this study are within the range in studies from different authors (Table 1). The total concentration of PAHs determined in the soils in this study (2212 ± 1528 μg kg−1) was higher than the average concentrations reported in soils from Lebanon (484 μg kg−1), China (318 μg kg−1) and Poland (616 μg kg−1) (Hao et al., 2007; Maliszewska-Kordybach et al., 2008; Soukarieh et al., 2018). However, the concentrations were lower than those observed in soils in North American urban sites, Orlando (3227 μg kg−1) and Tampa (4562 μg kg−1) (Liu et al., 2019).
