Risk-based evaluation of total petroleum hydrocarbons in vapor intrusion studies. [PDF]

Int J Environ Res Public Health, 2013
This paper presents a quantitative method for the risk-based evaluation of Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH) in vapor intrusion investigations. Vapors from petroleum fuels are characterized by a complex mixture of aliphatic and, to a lesser extent, aromatic compounds.
