Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH-compounds)
-carcinogenic compounds-ubiquitous-formed during the incomplete combustion of organic matter-emissions from wide range of combustion sourcesAnthropogenic emissions: diesel and gasoline engines, fossil fuels and biomass burning (energy production), oil refining…Natural emissions include forest fires and volcanic eruptions

-Directive of the European parliament and the Council (2004/107/EC) requires the member states to measure PAH-compounds in thePM10-fraction in ambient air.
-Benzo(a)pyrene (BaP) shall be used as a marker for the carcinogenic risk of
PAH-compounds in ambient air and the limit values are set for benzo(a)pyrene
ng/m3 benzo[a]pyrene
Treshold value 1
Upper assessment treshold 0,6
Lower assessment treshold 0,4
Table 1: Limit values for benzo(a)pyrene
Also benzo(a)anthracene, benzo(b)fluoranthene, benzo(j)fluoranthene, benzo(k)fluoranthene, indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene, and dibenzo(a,h)anthracene must be measured.
Benzo(a)pyrene

Conclusions:
-Traditional analysis takes time and there is a lot of work per sample,(sample preprocessing and analysis, data processing…), but-GC-MS is highly sensitive instrument for PAH-analysisLOQ (B(a)P): 0,06 ng/m3, 0,6 ppt.
-Average PAH-concentrations in both rainwater and PM10 are highest in winter, due to heating and shortage of light-In PM10-fraction,mean PAH-concentrations were higher in Virolahti that in Kuhmo. Same thing with Benzo(a)Pyrene in PM10. Concentration gradient
-Total PAH in PM10 at Virolahti is 3,2 ng m-3. (yearly average)-Average benzo(a)pyrene concentration in PM10 at Virolahti was 0,25 ng m-3, which is under lower assessment level.-The average yearly PAH-deposition in Kuhmo is 3300 ng m-2, and the average PAH-concentration in PM10-fraction is 1.1 ng m-3. (spring 2008)
![Page 32: 3.6.20151 PAH-compounds in background air (PM10) and precipitation in Finland Mika Vestenius Air Chemistry Laboratory FMI](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022103005/56649d2a5503460f949ff910/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
18.04.23 32
-PAH-levels in air and in precipitation are low in Finnish background areas.-PAHs in Kuhmo come from distant sources.
Take-home messages:1. PAH-compounds are emitted to atmosphere from incomplete burning of organic compounds. 2. Offline GC-MS is labour-intensive but higly sensitive detection method for PAH-compounds in air. 3. PAH-compounds distribute to gas and aerosol phases. The distribution between the phases depends on the compounds volatility and mass. PAH-compounds containing 2-3 aromatic rings are mainly in gas phase in air, whereas compounds that have more aromatic rings go to the aerosol phase. 4. PAH-compounds decompose in photochemical reactions, which act as a sink for these compounds. These reactions are slower on the wintertime, when there is less light, compared to summertime when there is lots of light. On wintertime there is also more emissions due heating. That is why average PAH-concentrations in both PM10 and precipitation in Finland are highest on winter.
