“…The target SVOCs for the study were octane (OCT), decane (DEC), dodecane (DOD), tetradecane (TED), hexadecane (HXD), octadecane (OCD), eicosane (EIC), docosane (DOC), tetracosane (TTC), hexacosane (HXC), and octacosane (OCC) having boiling points ranging from 125° C to 432° C (23). For the convenience of the predictive framework proposed in the study, the target SVOCs were further separated into two groups based on their molecular weights, namely 'Light SVOC' and 'Heavy SVOC'.…”
