Soil pollution
Emissions Analytics’ laboratory delivers the powerful analytical technique, two-dimensional gas chromatography coupled with time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GCxGC-TOF-MS) to discover, identify and quantify soil contaminants. Following on from this analysis, the source of the contamination can be identified and then periodically monitored.
Where we work
Soil contaminant from tyre and brake wear
Soil fertility and health analysis
Regulatory compliance
Environmental monitoring
Our advantage: GCxGC-TOF-MS vs. GC-MS
Enhanced separation: two-dimensional chromatography provides superior separation power, allowing for the resolution of complex mixtures.
High sensitivity and selectivity: time-of-flight mass spectrometry provides excellent sensitivity and the ability to detect and identify trace-level contaminants.
Comprehensive analysis: together, the techniques are capable of analysing a wide range of compounds in a single run, reducing the need for multiple analytical methods.
Identification and quantification: many unknown compounds can be identified, their structure elucidated, and concentrations quantified.
