METHOD OF DETERMINING CONTENT OF CHLOROBENZENE IN NATURAL AND WASTE WATER USING GAS CHROMATOGRAPHY AND EQUILIBRATION VAPOUR ANALYSIS Russian patent published in 2015 - IPC G01N27/00 

FIELD: chemistry.

SUBSTANCE: method of determining chlorobenzene in natural and waste water using gas chromatography and equilibrium vapour analysis includes determining chlorobenzene on a chromatographic capitally column in a carrier gas current which is nitrogen; generating and detecting the investigated ions formed in a flame with a flame-ionisation detector. The method also includes preparing a basic solution using a more viscous ethylene glycol solvent, hence the basic solution is well preserved for 2 months at temperature in the range of -2°C to -10°C; preparing calibration solutions for chlorobenzene concentration in the range of 0.0003-0.02 mg/dm³; sample preparation, calibrating the chromatograph by perforating the vapour phase of the prepared concentrations; plotting a calibration curve; sample preparation for the analysed water samples; perforating the vapour phase into the evaporator of the chromatograph. The obtained data are processed using ChemStation software which comes in a set with the MAESTRO 7820A chromatographic kit, and qualitative identification and quantitative content of the determined substance is obtained.

EFFECT: improved consistency and accuracy of analysis, shorter duration of the method and easier analysis in environmental monitoring conditions.
