What are PAHs? | The Effects on the Environment from PAHs

PAHs (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons) are ubiquitous contaminants (everywhere) in the environment and that is why you should know more about them. Their prevalence in the environment makes their understanding important for all environmental practitioners so different sources of PAHs can be identified when conducting and reporting environmental measurements.
