Abstract
[Objectives] To evaluate the pollution status of phthalate esters (PAEs) in the soil of facility vegetable base in Yangling District of Xianyang City. [Methods] A total of 15 kinds of PAEs in soil samples were detected and analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. [Results] A total of 12 kinds of PAEs were detected in analyzed soil samples, with a total content of 53.4-3 524.1 μg/kg and an average of 602.7 μg/kg. Specifically, DEHP, DBP, DIBP, DMEP, BBP and DNOP were the main PAEs pollutants in the soil, with the detection rates of 100%, 100%, 100%, 73.3%, 63.3% and 53.3%, and the average content were 286.3, 167.3, 123.1, 157.6, 121.3, and 130.5 μg/kg, respectively. [Conclusions] Compared with the soil in other regions, the pollution level of PAEs in the soil of facility vegetable base in Yangling District is lower, but such compounds are widespread in the facility vegetable base, and their potential environmental risks should attract close attention.
