Diagenesis of organic matter

Perylene has both combustion and non-combustion sources. Combustion sources are the same as have been described at the beginning of this section. The predominant non-combustion source of perylene appears to be diagenesis of organic matter in the sediments of lakes and marine systems. There is evidence that in situ production of perylene does occur in the sediments of the Great Lakes.

Hopanoic acids have been found in many recent and ancient sediments (12,18). The polycyclic acids found in the bitumen of Aleksinac shale may have originated from bacterial hopanes (19), and may serve as evidence of bacterial or abiogenic oxidation processes occurring during diagenesis of organic matter in Aleksinac shale.
