Resumo:
The evaluation of the hydrocarbons continental input by end members is of great importance for a better understanding the regional characteristics in terms of land use and the impact that urbanization has on an estuary. Aliphatic (n-C12 to n-C40) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (46 PAH) were investigated in suspended particulate matter (SPM) and sediments for eleven months in six major rivers and two canals in the basin of Guanabara Bay. The ΣPAH ranged 27.59 to 11,514 ng L-1 for SPM and of 14.60 to 64,961 ng g-1 for the sediment samples. PAH flow rates of the most contaminated rivers and channels ranging of 0,03 t year-1 for Suruí river to 1,87 t year-1 to Iguaçu river; the contribution to the PAH sediment load of the receiving bay, and the main sources of hydrocarbons were determined. Typology and statistical evaluation demonstrated contribution of distinct sources in different regions and allowed quantification of these contributions. Total flow rate for the five major rivers to the bay north amounts to 3 tons year-1 and responds for 30 percent of the total PAH annual input into the northern area of the Guanabara Bay. Geochronological study shows the historical evolution of the PAH contribution pointing to the transition from the predominance of combustion sources in the past to petrogenic sources in recent years and showed that among the nitrated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (NPAHs) evaluated only, 2-nitrofluoranthene, 3-nitrofluoranthene and 7-nitrobenzo(a)anthracene compounds were observed in the region NW while 2-nitronaphthalene, 5-nitroacenaphthene and 2-fluoranthene were observed south of the bay, suggesting preferential deposition of atmospheric reactions byproducts. For the first time PAH mass deposited in the bay sediments has been estimated and conducted the study about NPAHs shall serve as base for future studies.
