PAH source identification

Where are the origins of your polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) located? Can you identify the source?

Hint: the answer is higher than 1.

PAH Source Identification

Statvis offers a tool addressing PAH source identification through data analysis. The platform provides:

  • PAH graph generation. Visualize fingerprint patterns across samples.
  • Diagnostic ratio calculations. Industry-standard ratios for source determination.
  • Definitive classification. Distinguish pyrogenic or petrogenic origin when PAHs are present.
  • Pattern comparison. Match against reference libraries.
  • Individual sample reporting. Detailed analysis for each sample.

Our source finder tool compares your samples to a reference library and definitively determines if the source is pyrogenic (from a combustion source) or petrogenic (from a petroleum source).
