Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are a group of important toxic compounds. In order to detect the pollutional characteristics of atmospheric PAHs in Fine Particulate Matter (PM2.5), a total of 60 PM2.5 samples were collected in Lanzhou City during the winter of 2012 and summer of 2013. The GC/MS measurement results of the samples demonstrated the averagely total mass concentrations of the most significant 16 homologues of PAHs were (191.79±88.29) ng·m-3 and (8.94±4.34) ng·m-3 in winter and summer respectively, indicating a higher pollution level in winter. In winter, the snowfall was the most important meteorological factor for the decrease of PAHs mass concentration in PM2.5. The percentages of PAHs with 4 rings were the highest in both winter (51.40%) and summer (49.94%) in Lanzhou. The percentage of PAHs with 5-6 rings in summer (41.04%) was higher than that in winter (24.94%). However, the percentage of PAHs with 2-3 rings in summer (9.03%) was lower than that in winter (23.67%). Based on the analysis of characteristic ratios, we concluded that the PAHs in atmospheric PM2.5 in Lanzhou were mainly sourced from coal and vehicle emissions in winter, especially the diesel vehicles. The absolute contributions of all possible PAHs pollution sources were insignificant in summer, with relatively higher contribution from gasoline vehicles.
