Recovery of polycyclic anthracene and pyrene from spicked and aged soils by using hydroxipropyl-beta-cyclodextrin
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are considerd to be prority pollutants in the environment and are of major concern due to their recalcitrance and strong mutagenic/carcinogenic properties. It has been observed that as soil-pollutant contact time increases, pollutant bioavailability and extractability decreases. This phenomenon has been termed "ageing". Cyclodextrins (CDs) appeared as prormising complexing agents to mobilize hydrophobic aromatic pollutints in soils while minimizing environmental impact. In this work we examined the potential of HPBCD to enhance the extraction of the PAHs Pyrene (PYR) and Anthracene (ANT) from spicked and aged soils.
