Environmental Monitoring Using Thermal Desorption
This is a comprehensive guide to monitoring chemicals in the environment and the workplace using thermal desorption. It describes how thermal desorption can be used in air and water monitoring applications including detection of ‘air toxics’, mapping of environmental pollutants and assessing underground contamination. In each case, the guide directs you towards relevant application notes which describe the methods mentioned in detail. The guide also describes relevant analytical and sampling techniques and outlines the advantages of using thermal desorption for environmental monitoring.
Innovative Cryogen-Free Ambient Air Monitoring in Compliance with US EPA Method TO-15
This application note describes the GC–MS analysis of humidified canister ‘air toxics’ samples at various relative humidities, using cryogen-free systems for thermal desorption preconcentration. Detection of 65 target compounds, ranging in volatility from propene to naphthalene, is demonstrated with excellent peak shape and performance well within the criteria set out in US EPA Method TO-15, including method detection limits as low as 4 pptv.
Analysis of Trace-Level VVOCs and VOCs in High-Humidity Ambient Air by Thermal Desorption–GC–MS: Addressing Water Management Issues
This application note describes how thermal desorption (TD) with GC–MS can be used to analyse trace-levels of volatile and very volatile organic compounds (VOCs and VVOCs) in ambient air. The article compares options for adapting these methods for high humidity samples, including use of the new Kori-xrTM system.
