Exposure levels and health risk of PAHs associated with fine and ultrafine aerosols in an urban site in northern Algeria

Abstract: Size distribution of toxicants in airborne particulates remains insufficiently investigated in Algeria. A 1-year campaign was performed at Bab Ezzouar, Algiers (Algeria), aimed at characterizing particulates for their physical and chemical features. For this purpose, scanning electronic microscopy (SEM), Raman spectroscopy (RaS), and GC-MS methodologies were applied. The samples were collected on daily basis by means of a high-volume sampling (HVS) system equipped with cascade impactor separating three size fr… Show more

“…In a study at an urban site in northern Algier (Bab Ezzouar), daily levels of PM 10 , PM 2.5 , PM 1, and their associated PAHs were studied from January 2018 to January 2019 (Teffahi et al, 2021). The annual average of mass concentrations reached (94.8 ± 11.4) μg/m 3 for PM 10 , (46.3 ± 7.3) μg/m 3 for PM 2.5 , and (31.1± 6.4) μg/m 3 for PM 1 .…”
