Abstract | Surface sediments are both sinks and sources of chlorinated and brominated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (Cl/Br-PAHs) in the environment. It is important to study the source of Cl/Br-PAHs in the surface sediment for controlling the ecological risk of Cl/Br-PAHs. Clues from the previous research suggested that atmospheric deposition may be one of the main sources of Cl/Br-PAHs in sediment. However, due to the lack of matched sediment and atmospheric Cl/Br-PAHs data, the contribution of atmospheric deposition to Cl/Br-PAHs in sediment has not been confirmed. This study investigated the characteristics of 37 Cl/Br-PAHs and validated the contribution of atmospheric sedimentation to Cl/Br-PAHs in sediment by a case study in the surface sediments of the Chaobai River, China. To the best of our knowledge, four Cl-PAHs and eleven Br-PAHs were found in the sediments for the first time. The total concentrations of 18 Cl-PAH species were 76-2301 pg/g, while those of Br-PAHs were 6-238 pg/g. The toxic equivalent quantities (TEQ) of the Cl-PAHs in surface sediments in the water conservation area and in the urban comparison area were 0.73 pg TEQ/g and 2.21 pg TEQ/g, respectively. The TEQ of the Br-PAHs in surface sediments in the water conservation area and in the urban comparison area were 2.85 x 10(-2) pg TEQ/g and 6.6 x 10(-2) pg TEQ/g, respectively. Based on the characteristics comparison and correlation analysis of Cl/Br-PAHs in both sediment and ambient air, it was initially confirmed the contribution of atmospheric deposition to Cl-PAHs in sediments. However, there was no conclusion of Br-PAHs in sediment similar to Cl-PAHs in sediment. It was inferred that the sources of Br-PAHs in sediment were different from Cl-PAHs in sediment. |
