    Abstract:
    Synchronous fluorescence and the room-temperature phosphorescence methods were used to determine selected polynuclar aromatic hydrocarbons in a coal liquid (solvent-refined coal) product without a preseparation step. The procedure identified and quantified ten polynuclear aromatic compounds including anthracene, 2,3-benzofluorene, benzo[a]pyrene, benzo[e]pyrene, carbazole, dibenzothiophene, fluoranthene, fluorene, perylene and pyrene. Standard deviations for repeated determinations ranged from 10-30% for concentrations in the range of 0.1-6 mg g-1. The data obtained by these methods agree with results by other methods within the estimated experimental uncertainty. © 1981.
