“…These studies include both gravimetric determination of the benzene soluble fraction of air filter samples and analysis of one or a few components by gas, liquid or thin layer chromatography. A combined gas chromatographic/ultraviolet spectroscopic method for the determination of PAH in coke oven effluents has also been proposed (18). The benzene soluble method has been shown to be inaccurate (19) and does not correlate well with the analytical determination of PAH (17).…”

The content of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) in the work atmosphere of a coke plant was investigated on two occasions. Stationary, mobile, and personal sampling were used, and the samples were analyzed by glass capillary gas chromatography. Up to 39 PAH and heterocyclic compounds were identified in the samples. By personal sampling, the occupational exposure to PAH was determined to vary between 5 and 1,000 mg/m 3 . A study of the occurrence of PAH on particulate matter revealed that 98 % of the PAH was respirable. No significant variation in the relative distribution of the PAH components (PAH profile) was observed during the two sampling periods. The PAH profile for the coke plant was similar to that of a SOderberg aluminum plant, but different from that of a Soderberg paste plant.

“…A more recent and improved procedure for coal tar pitch volatiles uses a combination of gas chromatography (GC) and ultraviolet absorption spectroscopy (UV) to quantitatively analyze for eight specific compounds in the effluents (8). This GC-UV procedure was modified ( I , 2 ) to include fourteen compounds, most of which are major compounds in coal tar volatiles.…”

A procedure employing the techniques of gas chromatography (GC) and ultraviolet absorptlon spectroscopy (UV) has been developed for the specific analysis of volatiles from petroleum pitch. These techniques have been used In conjunction with mass spectrometry to ldentlfy nine of the major volatile compounds in petroleum pitch. In contrast to the major compounds present in coal tar pitch volatiles, many of the identified compounds In petroleum pitch volatiles were methyl substituted aromatlcs, and Included: methylchrysene, dlmethylchrysene, methylphenanthrene and methylpyrene. These compounds together with five other identified aromatic hydrocarbons were used in a combined GC-UV method for monitoring petroleum pitch volatiles. This analytical method, which showed a detectlon limit of approximately 0.5 pg per compound, was tested by analysis of commercial petroleum pitches.
