Polymeriaromaattiset
Polymeriaromaattiset, often referred to as Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs), are a group of organic compounds composed of multiple fused benzene rings. They are typically formed during the incomplete combustion of organic matter, such as coal, oil, wood, and garbage. PAHs are widely found in the environment, including in air, water, soil, and food. Their presence is a common indicator of pollution from both natural and anthropogenic sources, including industrial processes, vehicle emissions, and residential heating.
The chemical structure of PAHs is characterized by their fused aromatic ring system, which can vary in
Many PAHs are of concern due to their potential health effects. Some PAHs are known or suspected
