Abstract |
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, through the Environmental Technology Verification Program, is working to accelerate the acceptance and use of innovative technologies that improve the way the United States manages its environmental problems. As part of this program, the Consortium for Site Characterization Technology was established as a pilot program to test and verify field monitoring and site characterization technologies. Reports documenting the performance of the other technologies have been published separately. The demonstration was conducted at two geologically and climatologically different sites. The U.S. Department of Energy's Savannah River Site, near Aiken, South Carolina, and McClellan Air Force Base, near Sacramento, California. The demonstration provided adequate analytical and operational data with which to evaluate the performance of the inficon HAPSITE GC/MS system. The sample throughput rate of the HAPSITE was determined to be two to three samples per hour. The HAPSITE detected all of the groundwater contaminants reported by the reference laboratory at both sites which were present at concentration levels in excess of 5 ug/L. The results of the demonstration show that the inficon HAPSITE field-portable GC/MS with its headspace sampling accessory can provide useful, cost-effective data for environmental site characterization and routine monitoring. As with any technology selection, the user must determine whether the technology is appropriate for the application by taking into account instrument performance parameters and the project's data quality objectives. |
