... The fate and behavior of five commonly occurring aromatic volatile organic compounds (VOCs), namely toluene, ethyl benzene, and o-, m-, and p-xylene, were investigated in sewage sludge-amended soil. Laboratory experiments were conducted to investigate VOC concentrations in sludge-amended soil...

... of magnitude. As this method can reach a detection limit of 15 ppt (parts per trillion) for several compounds and can be easily automated, the analysis of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the environment, in particular, water samples, is highly advantageous by this method. This study will describe...

... transfer step. Results strongly suggest that volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are readily lost from contaminated soils when care is not taken to limit surface area exposure and ensure subsample isolation. For this site investigation and others using similar sample-handling protocols, VOC losses are most...
