  1. Volatilization of PAHs from sealcoated pavement Peter C. Van Metre, Barbara J. Mahler, William Foreman, Christopher Braun, Jennifer Wilson, Teresa Burbank, and Rhiannon ReVello

  2. Mean SPAH in six coal-tar based products (dried 3 days indoors) is ~90,000 mg/kg1 Mean SPAH in 12 scraping samples from coal-tar sealed lots is ~20,000 mg/kg1,2 PAHs in fresh and aged sealcoat 1Mahler et al., 2005 2Van Metre et al., 2009

  3. PATHWAYS

  4. Ksa=Csurf/Chat,eq F(T°) “Hat” sampling1 Ambient Air 1.28 m Gradient: source or sink? Surface air layer 0.03 m Impervious surface 1Meijer et al., 2003

  5. In-use parking lots Ten “in use” parking lots in Austin, TX. Seven with sealcoat, three unsealed pavement Summer 4 pm samples at all sites, 4 am samples at five Pavement dust sampled

  6. “Pickle” Test Plot Newly CT sealed “test” plot at UT Pickle Research Campus Sampled for 1 year: 2 hours after sealing, then after 1, 5, 16, 45, 149, 232, 328, 373 d Monitored wind and temperature Collected pavement dust and scraping samples at each time

  7. Analysis PUFs were ASE extracted and PAH analyzed by GC/MS 19 PAH quantified 8 PAH frequently detected: Phe, An, 4,5-MP, 1-MP, Flu, Py, Chy, and B(b)F

  8. The Solid Phase SPAH8 in dust at in-use lots Coal-tar sealed (n=6) 1,200 – 7,100 mg/kg Asphalt sealed (n=1) 29 mg/kg Unsealed (n=3) 0.47 – 6.3 mg/kg • SPAH8 at Pickle • Dust (n=2) 2,500 & 1,400 mg/kg • Scrapings (n=4) 11,000 – 28,000 mg/kg

  9. PAH in Air SPAH8 in unsealed lots HAT = 73 AMB = 26 ng/m3 dC/dzPhe= 17 ng/m SPAH8 in sealcoated lots HAT=1,770 AMB = 190 ng/m3 dC/dzPhe = 466 ng/m

  10. Source/Sink?

  11. Surface source

  12. PAH Pickle test plot SPAH8 2 hours after application HAT = 290,000 AMB = 5,400 ng/m3 dC/dzPhe= 165,000 ng/m SPAH8 149 days after (during winter) HAT=291 AMB = 28 ng/m3 dC/dzPhe = 180 35° C 34° 41° 31° 31° 17° 11°

  13. PAH Pickle test plot R2 = 0.95 t1/2 = 7 days

  14. Fluxes? Q = u* K’T [Ca(zhat) - Ca(zamb)] (1) • Q = flux • [C – C] = air concentration gradient • u* K’T = mass transfer coefficient u* K’T is primarily a function of wind speed (1) Scholtz et al., 2002

  15. Flux = f (gradient)
