Thia-Arenes as Pollution Source Tracers in Urban Air Particulate

Thia-Arenes as Pollution Source Tracers in Urban Air Particulate

Respirable air particulate samples have been analyzed using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) to determine the ratios of the amounts of monomethyl and dimethyl thia-arenes to the amounts of the parent thia-arenes. Standard Reference Materials 1649, 1650 and 1597 as well as local coal tar...

Zusammenfassung:Respirable air particulate samples have been analyzed using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) to determine the ratios of the amounts of monomethyl and dimethyl thia-arenes to the amounts of the parent thia-arenes. Standard Reference Materials 1649, 1650 and 1597 as well as local coal tar and coke oven emissions were also examined as source samples. These thia-arene profiles were used to distinguish diesel exhaust emissions from coke oven emissions in respirable air particulate collected in Hamilton, Ontario.
