PAHs and Related Compounds

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) play important roles in everyday life as well as in industrial activities.
The authors - internationally well recognized scientists - present an integrated thorough overview on the environmental chemistry of PAHs and their heterocyclic analogs. Extensive cross-referencing between chapters provides researchers with an easy access to all major areas of PAHs research.
