The ONG industry emits VOC such as BTEX, which pose health risks to workers. This study analyzed peer-reviewed research articles to provide BTEX emission profiles from three primary ONG operations and their associated health risks. PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews) was used to choose relevant articles for this review paper.

Article Synopsis
- - The study focuses on creating efficient gas sensors using Quartz Crystal Microbalance (QCM) coated with Tungsten Oxide (WO) to detect harmful BTX compounds (Benzene, Toluene, and Xylene) in the environment.
- - Various scientific methods such as Optical Profilometry, Scanning Electron Microscopy, and X-ray Diffraction were used to analyze the sensor's surface and structure, revealing an optimal film thickness of about 200.81 nm with a granular microstructure.
- - The developed sensor demonstrated high sensitivity, with the best response to xylene (5.10 Hz/ppm), quick response times, and impressive repeatability (99%) and reproducibility (98%), making it a promising
