  Analysis of Wastewater for Volatile Organics (EPA Method 8260C) by GC/MS
 US EPA Method 8260C, for the analysis of volatile organics in waste and wastewater, can be easily accomplished on the Thermo Scientific DSQ II single quadrupole GC/MS system, with good linearity and fast sample throughput.
 

 Analysis of volatile (purgeable) organics in waste and wastewater according to United States Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) Method 8260C using purge and trap and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry presents a significant challenge to instruments and laboratories alike. This application note describes the use of the Thermo Scientific DSQ™ II GC/MS system for performing this method.

Approximately 100 compounds, including surrogates and system performance check compounds (SPCCs) were analyzed across a linear range of 1 to 200 µg/L, with an average %RSD of 6.9 across this range. The method was fully validated according to US EPA Method 8260C, and a comprehensive package was developed that facilitates implementation of this method in your lab.
