Achieve Exceptional Resolution of PAHs, Including Several Isomer Sets Using SLB®-ILPAH Capillary GC Columns
originally published in Supelco®'s Analytix Reporter Journal Issue 1 2018 by Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany Visit SigmaAldrich.com/ar-reg Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are ubiquitous in the environment. They belong to a group known as persistent organic pollutants (POPs). Monitoring is important because they are identified as carcinogens. Multiple isomers exist, which are ...

Using UV Fluorescent Technology to monitor for organic pollutants
For many years the water industry has relied on traditional sampling techniques to monitor water quality in a wide range of environments. Traditional tests such as BOD, PH, Dissolved Oxygen and Ammonia have formed the bedrock of monitoring parameters. There are however other ways to establish water quality and UV fluorescence offers an up to date solution for the investigation of Organic ...

Using UV Fluorescence technology to monitor for organic pollutants in Flood Water
For many years the water industry has relied on traditional sampling techniques to monitor water quality in a wide range of environments. Traditional tests such as BOD, PH, Dissolved Oxygen and Ammonia have formed the bedrock of monitoring parameters. There is however other ways to establish water quality and UV fluorescence offers an up to date solution for the investigation of Organic ...

Analysis of PCBs and Organochlorinated pesticides in river water using simultaneous Scan/MRM measurement in GC-MS/MS
PCBs and some chlorinated pesticides are resistant to decomposition in the environment, and tend to accumulate in living organisms. As a result, they are designated as POPs (Persistent Organic Pollutants) under the Stockholm Convention. In monitoring these environmental pollutants in river water and sludge, sensitivity for the detection of trace quantities and separation from impurities in the ...

Air monitoring of persistent organic pollutants in the Great Lakes: IADN vs. AEOLOS
When designing a monitoring campaign, one has to consider many factors in the decision to perform a long-term synoptic monitoring program or a short-term intensive study. Each has its own advantages and disadvantages. This paper compares and contrasts the information obtained from two studies conducted on the Laurentian Great Lakes. One, the Integrated Atmospheric Deposition Network (IADN), is a ...

Calibration and use of the polar organic chemical integrative sampler—a critical review
The implementation of strict environmental quality standards for polar organic priority pollutants poses a challenge for monitoring programs. The polar organic chemical integrative sampler (POCIS) may help to address the challenge of measuring low and fluctuating trace concentrations of such organic contaminants, offering significant advantages over traditional sampling. In the present review, ...

Long-term sampling - A method for continuous emission monitoring of dioxins/furans and mercury
Introduction The continuous emission monitoring of the different compounds which are emitted by industrial facilities is an important topic to approve the compliance to different regulations like WID. However, there are several compounds which cannot be measured in real time. Specific dioxins/furans (PCCD/PCDF) and other POPs (Persistent Organic Pollutants) cannot be measured by online monitors. ...

Water quality monitoring cod, bod monitoring
Background: Water is one of the most precious resources on earth. It is necessary for human survival, agricultural production and industrial processes. However, water quality can be affected by a variety of factors, including pollution from human activities, natural disasters and climate change. Monitoring the quality of water is essential to ensure its safety for consumption and other uses. In ...
