Abstract
Nitrated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (nitro-PAHs) are derivatives of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). They are trace pollutants commonly found in the environment and have been widely detected in various matrices. Nitro-PAHs are direct mutagens and carcinogens to humans, so they have attracted increasing public attention. In order to accurately assess the adverse effects of nitro-PAHs on human health, it is necessary to analyze them in different samples. In this review, the sources, toxicity, contamination status, physicochemical properties, especially, the advances of their sample preparation and quantification methods in various matrices in the past decade are summarized.

An overview of studies on the hazards, component analysis and suppression of fumes in asphalt and asphalt mixtures

TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper provided a new perspective and direction for the relevant academic study on asphalt fume suppression and purification, which is the main deficiencies in the research are: 1) instant on-site detection of asphalt fumes is weak, 2) lack of study on diffusion of asphalt Fume, 3) a weak theoretical understanding of asphalt PDE production and composition, 4) the absence of a working mechanism and directionality of fume suppressants, and 5) little study on the portable asphalt FUME collection and purifying equipment.
