Aliphatic hydrocarbons drinking water

The partitioning of fuel oil no. 2 and kerosene into drinking water after 17 hours of incubation resulted in only 1.0% of the fuel oil and 0.7% of the kerosene being dissolved in the water. Further analysis of these fuels indicated that although each compound contains approximately 50% aliphatic hydrocarbons (by weight percent), the water-soluble fractions contained primarily aromatic constituents (>93%) including benzenes and naphthalenes as shown below (Coleman et al. 1984) ... [Pg.131]

Drilling, pumping, and transporting of crude oil invariably results in some spills of petroleum. These spills result in the introduction of aliphatic hydrocarbons, aromatic hydrocarbons, and PAHs into surface and ground-waters. Many of the chemicals listed on the EPA s list of 129 priority water pollutants (see Section 8.8) enter drinking water sources. [Pg.83]
