Samples were taken from the Konya Drinking Water Distribution Network, the Konya Sewerage System and the University Campus Sewer. Water and wastewater samples were analyzed in terms of sum parameters as well as aromatic hydrocarbons, such as ethyl benzene, chlorobenzene, bromobenzene, 1,3-dichlorobenzene, 1,4-dichlorobenzene, 1,2-dichlorobenzene, 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene, and 1,2,3-trichlorobenzene. These substances were extracted using liquid-liquid micro extraction method and analyzed with GC/FID. The level of 1,4-dichlorobenzene was found to be quite high for water samples and possible sources of this compound are discussed.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessaromatic hydrocarbonschlorinatedbrominatedbenzeneswaterwastewaterKonyaTurkeyArticle1311B13151321N/AWOS:000226041200022Q4
