File Description [top]

WATERNETTM provides a comprehensive index of the publications of the American Water Works Association and the AWWA Research Foundation. Included are books and proceedings, journals, newsletters, standards, manuals, handbooks, and water quality standard test methods. Emphasis is on the technical reports and studies from water utilities, regulatory agencies, and research groups in the United States and its territories, Canada, Mexico, and Latin America. European and Asian data are also reported. The database is the online counterpart to the index to the Journal AWWA from 1971 to the present, and all AWWA and AWWARF publications from 1973 to the present, with non-AWWA materials included on a selective basis.

  /AB=     This  paper  discusses several of the shortcomings of purge and 
     trap  techniques,  most  of  which  can be traced to the trapping 
     materials  (adsorbents).  An  ideal adsorbent has the capacity to 
     retain  the  volatile  compounds  during  the purging process; is 
     hydrophobic,  so  it  will  not  retain  the  water vapor that is 
     transferred  to it during the purging process; is able to release 
     the volatile compounds rapidly during the desorption step; and is 
     free  of  impurities  that may interfere with the chromatographic 
     analysis. The adsorbents currently recommended for purge and trap 
     techniques include porous polymers, silica gel and charcoal, none 
     of  which  exhibit  all of the ideal characteristics. Alternative 
     trapping  materials  including  a  carbon  molecular  sieve and a 
     graphitized   carbon   black,   were   evaluated   as   potential 
     replacements for the existing adsorbents. Results are given.
