A fast SPE-GC-ECD method for the analysis of PCBs in waste oil was developed. A complete profile was obtained following SPE with a 12 minute GC run-time using a modular accelerated column heater (MACH). Full automation of the sample preparation and analysis (except sample weigh-in) enables a daily throughput of 100 samples. A wide range of concentrations can be determined using a dedicated column and Electron Capture Detection (ECD).

Automated Solid Phase Extraction (SPE)

Automated Solid Phase Extraction (SPE)

Performing Solid Phase Extraction (SPE) manually can be time consuming and nerve-racking, especially when recovery and reproducibility are lacking due to sample variability. If SPE can be reliably automated, it becomes a much more efficient and reproducible process.
