Influence of Humus with Time on Organic Pollutants and Comparison of Two Analytical Methods for Analysing Organic Pollutants in Humus Water

  • Conference paper
Analysis of Organic Micropollutants in Water

Summary

In a laboratory study the influence of aquatic humus with time on low concentrations of ftalates, PAH and chlorinated hydrocarbons have been investigated. The feasibility of a liquid/liquid extraction method and a resin (XAD-2) adsorption method for analysing these pollutants in humus water has also been investigated. The influence of the aquatic humus on the organic pollutants was found to vary considerably between different classes of compounds as well as between compounds of the same class. None of the two analytical methods investigated were found feasible for the determination of the total amount of organic pollutants present in humus water.
