These hydrocarbons have relatively high pollution potential because of their significant toxicity. The objective of this study was to evaluate the contamination of seawater by the main pollutants of the output and transport of petroleum, such as benzene, toluene, and xylenes, and their removal by exposure to ionizing radiation. The studied region was Ubatuba region, SP, between 23º26’S and 23º46’S of latitude and 45º02’W and 45º11’W of longitude, area of carry and output of petroleum, and samples were collected from November, 2003 to July, 2005. For BTX in seawater analysis, the Purge and Trap concentrator with FIDGC detector showed significantly higher sensibility than headspace concentrator with MSGC detector. The minimal detected limits (MDL) obtained at FIDGC were of 0.50 g/L for benzene, 0.70 g/L for toluene, and 1.54 g/L for xylenes, and the obtained experimental variability was 15%. While the concentrator type Headspace system with MS detector showed higher MDL, about of 9.30 mg/L for benzene, 8.50 mg/L for toluene, and 9.80 mg/L for xylenes, and 10% of experimental variability. In the studied area the benzene concentration varied from 1.0 g/L to 2.0 g/L, the concentration of toluene varied from < 0.70 g/L to 3.24 g/L and the maximum value of xylenes observed was of 2.92 g/L. The seawater samples contaminated with BTX standard were exposed to ionizing radiation using a source of 60Co. The results showed a removal from 10% to 40% of benzene at 20kGy absorbed doses and concentration of 35.1 mg/L and 70.2 mg/L, respectively. For toluene the removal were from 20% to 60% with 15kGy and xylenes were removed from 20% to 80% with 15kGy and similar concentrations.Dissertação IPEN-doc 11342 Artigo IPEN-doc 11731 Degradation of petroleum hydrocarbons in seawater by ionizing radiation2006 - ALMEIDA, K.C.S.; OIKAWA, H.; OLIVEIRA, J.; DUARTE, C.L.
