[Critical Review on Environmental Occurrence and Photochemical Behavior of Substituted Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons].

Substituted polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (SPAHs) are a type of emerging pollutant that widely exist in the environment, which also exhibit carcinogenicity, mutagenicity, and teratogenicity. These pollutants belong to toxic pollutants because of their similar structures to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Their environmental behavior and ecological risk have attracted increasing attention.
