Abstract |
Most of the methods currently used, or in recent use, for the analysis of pollutants in various media and categories were identified by selected EPA laboratories. Some 400 methods are categorized for the following: air, water and wastewater, drinking water supply, solid waste, radioactivity, pesticides, oils and greases, and biological methods. This volume includes a brief narrative description of the analytical method applied to a specific pollutant (or other parameter of interest) in a given medium. Descriptions expand on matrix data and provide data on characteristics, applicability and limitations. |
