Estimation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) emission and its toxicity potentials from the combustion of selected fuelwoods

Estimation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) emission and its toxicity potentials from the combustion of selected fuelwoods

In many developing nations, wood is still commonly used as a fuel for domestic cooking. However, fuelwood combustion can have a pronounced effect on air quality by releasing considerable level of PAHs, thereby posing serious risk to global and environmental health. In this study, seven fuelwood samp...
