Organic Geochemistry and Coal Petrology of Tertiary Brown Coal in the Zhoujing Mine, Baise Basin 3.Characteristics of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons
- Publish Date: 1991-12-31
Abstract: The polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons of the Tertiary brown coal from Zhoujing Mine have been characterized in detail. They are composed mainly of aromatic sesqui-, di-, sester- and triterpenoid hydrocarbons, with retene and simonellite as the predominant species. Secondary in abundance are mono-to penta-aromatic triterpenoid hydrocarbons, derived from oleanane, ursane and lupane precursors, indicators of terrestrial sources. Minor species present are a tetra-aromatic norhopane, undecyltoluene and perylene, and most of the regular PAH are found at trace levels only.
