| Abstract |
The document focuses on gas-phase hydrocarbons and certain of their oxidation products, particularly aldehydes, that are associated with the manifestations of photochemical air pollution. Particulate hydrocarbons, and more specifically polynuclear hydrocarbons, are not treated in the document. It is important to recognize that the criteria for hydrocarbons rest almost entirely on their role as precursors of other compounds formed in the atmospheric photochemical system and not upon the direct effects of the hydrocarbons themselves. The publication reviews the chemical and physical characteristics of hydrocarbons and their degradation products, especially aldehydes, and considers the basic analytical methods used for measuring the atmoshpheric content of these compounds. A brief review of the sources of hydrocarbons and principles of their control is included. The chemistry of hydrocarbon reactions in the atmosphere is briefly reviewed. The direct effects of hydrocarbons, essentially limited to vegetation damage from ethylene, are discussed. Toxicological data on hydrocarbons and aldehydes are also included. (Author) |
