摘要：

An attempt has been made to determine the levels of benzene in air at different locations in Mumbai city. Levels of benzene in air have been determined by adsorbing air at a uniform flow rate on especially fabricated activated coconut charcoal cartridges followed by thermal desorption and detection on Varian GC-MS. The results show that maximum concentrations of benzene have been observed at traffic junctions and petrol pumps.
