Abstract
This is a fast gas chromatographic method optimized for the determination of selected carbonyl compounds in finished drinking water and raw source water. The analytes applicable to this method are derivatized to their corresponding pentafluorobenzyl oximes. The oxime derivatives are then extracted from the water with hexane. The hexane extracts are analyzed by fast gas chromatography with electron capture detection (FGC-ECD). Fast GC uses a small diameter capillary column (number 100 mm i.d.), hydrogen carrier gas and a fast oven ramp rate to dramatically decrease analysis time.
