Sedimentary processes for the geosynthesis of heterocyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and fluorenes by surface reactions

Laboratory experiments have shown that activated carbon catalyses the reactions of biphenyls (BPs) with surface adsorbed reactants incorporating either S, O, N or methylene, leading to the formation of some common constituents reported in sedimentary organic matter (OM) namely, dibenzothiophene (DBT...
