Verificação de presença de BTEX e HPA utilizando dados amostrais de postos de gasolina no município de Maringá-PR

Abstract

On this work I check for contamination of groundwater, soil and sediment by checking for the presence of BTEX (Benzene, Toluene, Ethylbenzene and Xylenes) and PAH (Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons), and thus it was checked whether there is a risk to human health for residents and employees around five gas stations in Maringá-PR, this is the challenge of this work. Environmental regulations impose strict limits for the release of elements considered polluting in the environment. This release in the case of volatile organic substances such as gas station leaks can be considered as a risk to human health and a negative environmental impact on the environment. Thus, transversally, environmental geology and human health are strongly linked through these leakage events. To measure these two impacts (the environment and human health) it was checked the data from the Preliminary and Confirmatory Research work carried out in the areas of gas stations, and thus demonstrate the environmental quality of soil and water as the characterization of environmental liabilities petroleum hydrocarbons, in accordance with the environmental legislation governed by CONAMA resolution 420/2009 using CETESB's guiding values for soil and groundwater. Not been find big alterations against the environment.
