Abstract:
With the number of environmentally relevant per and polyfluorinated alkyl substances (PFAS) compounds and precursors that cannot yet be analyzed continuing to increase, there is a need to develop suitable analytical methods for their detection. Many PFAS are not accounted for by existing analytical methods. A single analytical workflow that would allow for a direct determination of as many PFAS as possible. Automated combustion ion chromatography (CIC) can be used to determine organic halogen contaminants, such as AOX (X = F, Cl, and Br).
