Notes:

1.      LMW = Low molecular weight PAHs, that is, acenaphthene, acenaphthylene, anthracene, fluorene, naphthalene and phenanthrene.

2.      HMW = High molecular weight PAHs, that is, benzo[a]anthracene, benzo[a]pyrene, chrysene, dibenzo[a,h]anthracene, fluoranthene, pyrene, benzo[b]fluoranthene, benzo[k]fluoranthene, indeno[1,2,3-c,d]pyrene and benzo[g,h,i]perylene.
