This volume is the 3rd in a series of comprehensive publications
devoted to the molecular spectra and environmentally important
properties of polycyclic aromatic compounds which constitute one of
the most interesting classes of environmental carcinogens. Since
the first identification of dibenz(a, h)anthracene and later
benzo(a)pyrene as chemical carcinogens in the 1930's, the number of
publications devoted to this ubiquitously occurring group of
compounds has increased constantly. Therefore, this reference
source for the spectral, physicochemical and en vironmentaJ
properties of polycyclic aromatic compounds should be a welcome
addition to the previous volumes for scientists engaged in the
investigation, characterisation and control of this hazardous class
of pollutants. As was the case with the preceding volume, this
publication is the fruit of a close collaboration within the
General Directorate for SCience, Research and Development of the
Commission of the European Communities between the Environment
Institute of the Joint Research Centre Ispra, the Community Bureau
of Reference and expert laboratories in the member states. F. Geiss
Director of the Environment Institute JRC Ispra 1. Introduction
Polycyclic Aromatic Compounds (PAC) are an important class of
carcinogenic environmental pollutants, which occur in air, water,
soils, sediments, in food and in the work area. Because many
hundreds of closely related isomers are being formed and released
in the environment from combustion processes of fossil fuels and
other organic materials, their environmental and health con trol
presents a difficult task."
