Gas Chromatography in Environmental Analysis

From PID Analyzers
 

 

This chapter is written from the perspective of an environmental professional. It focuses on those aspects of Gas Chromatography that aid in the selection of instrumentation and columns for both field and laboratory methods. In addition, it should be a useful resource for anyone who is responsible for interpreting data collected in the field.
