Analysis of volatile organic contaminants in water has been determined
by using purge-and-trap (Bellar and Lichtenberg, 1974) gas stripping
(Grob, 1973, Kopfler et al., 1976, and Mieure, et al., 1976). solvent
extraction (Hendeson, et al., 1976), director injection (Nicholson, et
al., 1977) and static headspace sampling (Kaiser and Oliver 1976, and
Dietze and Singley, 1979). Each method can be effective for analysis
of selected compounds in water. All possess advantages and
disadvantages which relate to equipment needs, sample matrix,
detection 1 imits and analysis speed. Based on head space technique
and gas stripping devices, a purging and closed-loop method was
developed for determining trichloroethylene, 1,2-dichloroethylene,
1,1-dichloroethylene and vinyl chloride in groundwater over a very
large concentration range from (0.1 ppb to 10 ppm) (Wang and Lenahan,
1984). In this paper, we examined the effectiveness of the method for
sediment and oyster tissue analysis.
