Application of GCMS in the Environmental Analysis

Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) has specific applications in environmental analysis, covering atmospheric, water, soil, and biological samples, with mature detection solutions for different types of pollutants.
1. Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) Detection
Targets: Benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, xylene (BTEX), formaldehyde, vinyl chloride, etc.
2. Semi-Volatile Organic Compounds (SVOCs)
Targets: Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), phthalates (plasticizers), organophosphate esters (flame retardants).
3. Organic Pollutants in Drinking Water
Targets: Trihalomethanes (THMs, e.g., chloroform), pesticides (e.g., atrazine), plasticizers (e.g., DEHP).
4. Industrial Wastewater and Surface Water
Targets: Total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH), phenols, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs).
5. Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs)
Targets: Organochlorine pesticides (DDT, hexachlorocyclohexane), PCBs, dioxins (requiring high-resolution GC-HRMS).
6. Additives in Microplastics
Targets: Antioxidants (e.g., BHT), flame retardants (e.g., TCEP).
7. Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS)
Applicability: Only some volatile PFAS (e.g., fluorotelomer alcohols) can be detected by GC-MS.
