TriphenyleneTriphenylene is a pollutant found almost everywhere in the environment.
Chemical Formula:
C18H12
Layman's explanation:
Triphenylene is a ubiquitous combustion effluent that pollutes the environment. It is released into the environment from countless industrial processes including those of coal burning electric power plants, refineries, and incinerators. It also enters into the environment due to many human activities such as smoking, use of internal combustion engines, and even charcoal-broiling steaks. Triphenylene detrimentally effects aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems and may be carcinogenic to humans. Human exposure commonly occurs through cigarette smoking, inhalation of polluted air, and by consumption of contaminated food and water.
