Abstract
Abstract Abstract The performances of several sorbents as collection media for the quantitative concentration and analysis of volatile, hazardous, vapor-phase compounds from ambient atmospheres were evaluated under a variety of conditions relevant to field sampling. Tenax GC was found to be superior to other sorbents in most cases. The effects of humidity, background air pollution, repeated re-use of sorbent, and transportation and storage of collected samples were investigated. Key Words: AtmosphereCartridge samplerHazardous vaporsSorbent mediumTenax GC

This study indicated that the filter capacity is dependent both on the type of carbon employed and the particular odor compound adsorbed, and this breakthrough point is governed by the filter’s capacity for a particular compound.
