Abstract

Organic toxic compounds such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, phenolic compounds are a global environmental concern as they cause inflammation and skin cancer. As you know there are two types of anthropogenic sources of hydrocarbons: petrogenic and pyrogenic sources. Petrogenic sources include crude oil and petroleum-derived hydrocarbon compounds. Pyrogenic sources of hydrocarbon compounds are formed as a result of incomplete combustion of organic substances such as oil, wood, coal. Before entering the open sea these oil products pass through the entire coastal zone. It is known that industrial waters are discharged into reservoirs after various chemical processes. The aim of this work was to determine how dangerous industrial oil water is when it enters the aquatic ecosystem. The article investigates the chemical composition of wastewater from the oil industry and identifies organic toxic compounds - polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and phenolic compounds. At the same time, the amount of heavy metals in water samples was analyzed. For chemical analysis, 3 samples were taken from the territory of the refinery. In total, 15 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, 13 phenolic compounds and 9 heavy metals were analyzed in water samples. Water samples were analyzed in accordance with the contract HS-153/2-18 between Heydar Aliyev Oil Refinery and Baku State University's Department of Ecological Chemistry. The chemical analyses of heavy metals, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and phenolic compounds were carried out using extremely sensitive devices such as Perkin Elmer ICP/OES-2100DV and GC-MSD gas chromatograph 6890N with a highly efficient mass-selective detector-Agilent 5975. In the Khazar Ecological Laboratory performed quantitative analysis of organic compounds in water samples as well as heavy metal determination.
