[Method]The preparation method of head space was adopted for the volatile organic compounds in drinking water. [Result] The 20 kinds of volatile organic compounds in drinking water all could be detected simultaneously by using HS-GC-FID method,and they all could be separated well. The HS-GC-FID method could analyze the detected substances qualitatively and quantitatively. In addition, this detection method was characterized by larger linear range of concentration, higher precision, higher detection limit and higher recovery rate. [Conclusion] Under certain conditions, HSGC can reduce the loss of volatile organic compound in drinking water and improve the sensitivity of detection. Moreover, the detection results meet the requirements by quality control.展开更多

Both thermal plasmas and non-equilibrium plasmas (cold plasmas) are being developed for VOCs cleanup[2,3]. Particularly, pulsed corona discharges offer several advantages over conventional VOCs abatement techniques[4-7]. To optimize the existing technology and to develop it further, there is need to understand the mechanisms involved in plasma chemical reactions. Furthermore, it is strongly desirable to be able to predict the behavior of new VOCs in non-equilibrium plasma environment from the data known for a few representative compounds. Pulsed corona discharge technique is introduced here with citation of relevant literature. Fundamental principles, useful for predicting the VOCs' decomposition behavior, have been worked out from the published literature. Latest developments in the area, targeted to minimize the energy losses, improve the VOCs destruction efficiency and reduce the generation of unwanted organic and inorganic by-products, are presented.展开更多
