Determination of total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPHs) in weathered oil contaminated soil [PDF]
A new measurement method of weathered crude oil in soil was reviewed. There is no standard method for the extraction of crude oil from soil. Hence, a basic initial test was carried out and several methods such as gravimetric and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) with various parameters such as weight, solvent and time.

Sorption of Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons in Microplastics
As is the case for many others in the world, Mexican seas face complex pollution challenges; two of the contaminants that require special attention for their prevalence, possible chemical interactions, and relation to the country’s economy are leaked petroleum and microplastics (MP).

Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons [PDF]
The term “total petroleum hydrocarbons” (TPHs) is used for any mixture of several hundred hydrocarbons found in crude oil, and they represent the sum of volatile petroleum hydrocarbons and extractable petroleum hydrocarbons. The petrol-range organics include hydrocarbons from C6 to C10, while diesel-range organics are C10-C28 hydrocarbons ...
