Evaluation of a passive air sampler for measuring indoor formaldehyde.
A passive air sampler, using 4-amino-3-hydrazino-5-mercapto-1,2,4-triazole, was evaluated for the determination of formaldehyde in indoor environments. Chromatography paper cleaned using a 3% hydrogen peroxide solution was experimentally determined as being the optimum absorption filter for the collection of formaldehyde (0.05 microg cm(-2) formaldehyde). From a linear-regression analysis betwe...
متن کاملInfluence of sampler configuration on the uptake kinetics of a passive air sampler.
Passive air samplers (PAS) are simple and cost-effective tools to monitor semivolatile organic compounds in air. Chemical uptake occurs by molecular diffusion from ambient air to a passive sampling medium (PSM). Previous calibration studies indicate that even for the same type of PAS, passive air sampling rates (R, m(3)(air)/d) can be highly variable due to the influence of a number of factors....
متن کاملA Passive Sampler for Atmospheric Particles
Preliminary investigation on the feasibility of size selective passive sampling for atmospheric particles was undertaken through laboratory simulated and outdoor sampling. The passive samplers used in the research were improved from passive sampler used for sampling atmospheric organic contaminants. Sampled particle size distribution was analyzed by MasterSizer 2000 laser particle size analyzer...
متن کاملA miniaturised sensor for gaseous mercury detection
A new microfabricated physical sensor for elemental gaseous mercury (Hg) determinations has been developed and experimentally tested by the Authors. The sensor is based on the technique of resistivity variation of thin gold film. The gold film surface and the sensor behaviour on different substrates have been investigated. The sensor design has been performed in observation of the minimum detec...
متن کاملCalibration and application of a passive air sampler (XAD-PAS) for volatile methyl siloxanes.
Because the atmosphere is key to understanding the environmental behavior of volatile methyl siloxanes (VMS), a variety of reliable air sampling methods are needed. The purpose of this study was to calibrate and evaluate an existing, polystyrene-divinylbenzene copolymeric resin-based passive air sampler (XAD-PAS) for VMS. Sixteen XAD-PAS were deployed for 7-98 days at a suburban site in Toronto...
