Summary
Some examples are given for the progress being made in the analysis of the 129 EC priority pollutants (Easily volatile halogenated hydrocarbons, benzene and derivatives, chloroethene, phenolic compounds, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons). The results of interlaboratory trials, as far as available, are stated and interpreted. Preliminary results on test methods are offered. Some reasons for the slow progress is given.
