Quantification of Volatile Organics in Soil Aging Experiments Using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy

Abstract

Soil aging may have a significant influence on the success of environmental remediation strategies and the accuracy of numerical models that estimate contaminant transport. The focus of this study was to define the ability of online Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy to monitor the concentration of halogenated volatile organic compounds in a process that simulates long-term slow accumulation of contaminants in soils.
