DETERMINATION OF CARCINOGENIC POLYCYCLIC AROMATIC HYDROCARBONS IN AIR SAMPLES IN IRBID, NORTH JORDAN
Air samples were collected at an urban site and a rural (BERQESH) site during February (2017) until March (2017) to determine concentrations of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in Air. The extraction process was done by using Soxhlet apparatus and methylene chloride as solvent. The sample cle...
