Analysis of PhACs in solid environmental samples (soil, sediment, sludge)

This chapter discusses about developed analytical methods and new approaches to PhACs determination in solid environmental samples including soil, sediment and sludge. Solid environmental matrices represent a more challenging analytical task compared to water samples due to their high heterogeneity. Conventional and novel sample preparation methods are described and compared from the viewpoint of their applicability to environmental analysis. Since extraction methods are not selective, an additional clean-up step usually follows the sample preparation procedure. With respect to separation and detection of PhACs in extracts from solid environmental samples, advanced analytical methods are used. They are based on chromatographic techniques (GC or LC) hyphenated to mass spectrometry (MS). Advance LC- MS methods applied in analysis of soil environmental samples are presented too.
