Measurement of Volatile Aromatic Hydrocarbons in an Industrial Estuary

摘要

Levels of volatile aromatic hydrocarbons (benzene, toluene, xylenes, and ethyl benzene) have been determined in water and sediment samples taken from the River Tees estuary in October 1981. The samples were analysed by a procedure based on the dynamic headspace technique and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry.
