Abstract:

Quantitative analysis of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) for surface soil of Shenyang was carried out using a High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) method.The content and distribution characteristics of PAHs for surface soil in different functional areas of Shenyang were studied.As far as the total amount of PAHs in soil concerned, the content of PAHs in parks is the lowest, followed by residential areas.Universities and commercial areas rank behind residential areas.Whereas traffic arteries and industrial areas have the larger content of PAHs.For the spatial distribution of the content of PAHs, the contents of PAHs in the areas close to industry and areas with large number of motor vehicles are higher, while the contents of PAHs in the areas close to culture, education, and habitation are lower.The distribution of PAHs components in all samples was consistent, with the content of tetracyclic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons being the highest, followed by tricyclic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and pentacyclic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.Referring to the quality and controlling standards of EPA sediment of PAHs in United States, the functional areas in which the total amount of PAHs exceeded the quality standards include industrial areas, traffic arteries (4 sampling points, accounting for 36.3%), cultural and educational areas (3 sampling points, accounting for 75%) and public parks (4 sampling points, accounting for 40%).The functional areas that exceed the governance standards include industrial areas, parks (1 point, 10%) and cultural and educational areas (1 point, 25%).The results of this study can provide reference for urban layout planning and soil pollution control in Shenyang.
