Gas Chromatography – Mass Spectroscopy for Quantification and quantification of high-value as well as hazardous compounds

To reduce the environmental impact of manufacturing and use of chemicals, qualification and quantification of compounds and contaminants at the parts per million to parts per quadrillion levels are needed. The new GC-MS equipment (Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry) combines two powerful techniques to identify compounds with low detection limits in both liquid, gaseous, and solid samples. Thus, the equipment allows identification of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and PFAS, identification of trace impurities in liquids and gasses and identification and quantification of high-value compounds from different sources.
