Publicación Acceso abierto Determinación de la concentración de benceno en aire en los asentamientos humanos cercanos a la refinería de Conchán – Lima 2019(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2019-09-20) Mallqui Vega, Nelva Mariluz; Alvarez Gutierrez, Paola Janeth; Lizano Gutiérrez, Jesús VíctorThe objective of this research was to determine the concentration of benzene in the air in human settlements near the Conchan-Petroperú refinery in the Lurín district. The methodology used was the determination of benzene via gas chromatography. Sample: Benzene air sampling points were located at three upwind stations: Upwind 1 at the Ampliación Virgen de la Candelaria Human Settlement in Lurín; Upwind 2 at the Huáscar Transport company; and Upwind 3 on the rooftop of a house in Mamacona Alta. Three downwind stations were also set up in the same respective locations. Results: The concentration of benzene was as follows: Upwind 1, 0.0259 µg/m³; Upwind 2, 0.0237 µg/m³; Upwind 3, 0.0219 µg/m³; Downwind 1, 0.0247 µg/m³; Downwind 2, 0.0201 µg/m³; and Downwind 3, 0.0242 µg/m³. Conclusion: The air in the vicinity of the Conchan Refinery did not have benzene concentrations that exceeded the permissible limit of 2 µg/m³ established in the National Environmental Air Quality Standards (ECA) Regulation.
