Abstract

The pollution characteristics of EPA priority controlled PAHs in aerosols in Shanghai were quantified with GC-MS. The concentration of PAHs in winter was highest, and summer lowest. Most of PAHs were found on aerosol particles having aerodynamic diameter between 0.43 and 2.1 μm. The three- four- and five-ring PAHs were appeared the unimodal distribution form for the highest concentration in 0.43—1.1 μm size range was found.
