Abstract The principal hydrocarbons from polluted river water and from various types of unpolluted surface water in Japan were compared; results are tabulated and discussed. The presence of squalane, an unresolved mixture of hydrocarbons, and n-alkane with an even number of carbon atoms was related to the occurrence of artificial hydrocarbons (fossil fuels and industrial products), while the occurrence of n-alkanes with an odd number of carbon atoms in unpolluted waters was due mainly to the presence of algae and higher aquatic plants.
