Emission of organic components and distribution characteristics of PAHs in condensable particulate matter from coal-fired power and industrial plants

Yujia Wu et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates that fine particles emitted from coal combustion pose a hidden threat to the ecological environment and human health, with organic fractions dominating the emitted particulate matter and a relatively high content of saturated hydrocarbons. The removal effect of air pollution control devices on polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons is effective, and 4-ring C-PAHs contribute significantly to the emissions.
