Analysis of Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon in Domestic Distribution Petroleum

open access: yesApplied Chemistry for Engineering, 2016
Over 60~70% of the domestic soil contamination have occurred by petroleum products. B⋅T⋅E⋅X including benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, xylene and total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) have to be inspected for the contaminated soil by petroleum products.
