Characterization of organic compounds in simulated rainfall runoffs from model coal piles [Water pollution]

Several model coal piles were constructed from one of four types of coal and leached with distilled water to simulate rainfall conditions. Runoff samples were collected, extracted, and analysed by capillary column gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) . Runoff from coal piles could contain nu...

Description
Summary:Several model coal piles were constructed from one of four types of coal and leached with distilled water to simulate rainfall conditions. Runoff samples were collected, extracted, and analysed by capillary column gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) . Runoff from coal piles could contain numerous organic compounds, including phenanthrene, aliphatic hydrocarbons, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) and methyl and ethyl substituted PAH.
