Abstract
Polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PNAs), formed in combustion processes with liquid hydrocarbon fuels, contribute to mobile source exhaust emissions. Because correlation between PNA levels in automobile exhaust and pre-existent PNAs in fuel has been demonstrated in previous work, a quantitative analysis of 12 individual polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons present in various aircraft turbine, diesel, and gasoline test fuels was determined in this project. The PNAs included phenanthrene, anthracene, fluoranthene, pyrene, benzo(a)anthracene, chrysene, triphenylene, benzo(a)pyrene, benzo(e)pyrene, benzo(g,h,i)perylene, coronene and anthanthrene. The fuel samples were analyzed by combined gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC-MS) after a preliminary isolation/concentration scheme. Liquid crystal chromatographic columns were employed to resolve isomeric PNAs. The results indicated that anthanthrene and coronene were not detected in any of the samples analyzed.
