Air
• Hi-Vol samplers
are used for aerosols.
A range of size
selective inlets (0.25 - 10 mm)
can be used which separate out the aerosol particles
on the basis of particle diameter.
• Cascade impactors
separate the aerosol particles using the particles mass.
Most analytical equipment used in gas phase
analysis is specific for one analyte.
• For Volatile Organic Compounds VOCs
Gas Chromatography (GC) is
used to separate the array of organic compounds.
