Environmental Extractions - Comparison of US EPA 3545A and 3546 Methods
Overview
Air Date: Wednesday, July 8, 2020Duration: 60 Minutes
Summary
Soil is one of the most common matrices in which semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs) are present. The extraction of these compounds from soil can be a lengthy and tedious process. Pressurized Fluid Extraction on the EDGE and Microwave Assisted Solvent Extraction (MASE) on the MARS 6 are proven techniques that are fast, simple, and efficient. EDGE is ideal for difficult samples while MARS 6 is ideal for high throughput labs dealing with hundreds of samples per day. Adhering to US EPA 3545A the EDGE offers a rapid automated process that yields a filtered sample. Adhering to US EPA 3546, the MARS 6 also offers an efficient extraction of up to 24 samples simultaneously. These two techniques offers solutions for rapid, simple and efficient extraction of SVOCs from soil.What You’ll Learn
