Organics-Volatiles (VOCs) Analysis:
 |
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) have relatively low boiling points, and are
thus, easily vaporize into the atmosphere. The VOCs are removed from the
sample matrix by purging an inert gas through the sample where the VOCs are
collected on a trap system.
The availability of reliable, accurate and precise monitoring methods for
toxic VOCs is a primary need for state and local agencies addressing daily
monitoring requirements related to odor complaints, fugitive emissions, and
trend monitoring. VOCs enter the atmosphere from a variety of sources,
including petroleum refineries, synthetic organic chemical plants, natural gas
processing plants, biogenic sources, and automobile exhaust. Many of these
VOCs are toxic so that their determination in ambient air is necessary to access
human health impacts.
Some VOCs are extracted from the sample matrix with a solvent. This
Solvent is then introduced onto a GC column for separation like extractable
organics. In the same analyses the solvent may also be added to water and
then purged to a trap system, etc. |
