| Abstract |
The purpose of this survey was to determine current levels of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) pollution in steel-casting and iron foundries. Contents: description of the sources of PAH emissions of foundry processes, sand binders. The relative influence of different parameters, particularly by that of new bonding processes, is also covered. |
