In this study the surface sediments of Malacca River (3 Stations) and Prai River (3 Stations) were analyzed to identify the distributions of PAHs. The concentrations of PAHs were quantified using Gas Chromatography–Mass Spectrometer (GC–MS). Total PAH concentrations varied from 716 to 1210 and 1102...
