Analysis of oxygenated solvents in groundwater by dynamic thermal stripping-GC-MSD / by M.W. Priddle, S. Lesage and R.E. Jackson.: En13-5/90-54E-PDF

"A plume of groundwater contaminated with 1,4-dioxane tetrahydrofuran and acetone emanating from a solvent disposal site was mapped. Analysis was conducted with dynamic thermal stripping followed by thermal desorption into a GC-MSD with monitoring of selected ions. This method has a significantly better practical quantitation limit than the current EPA method (10 vs. 150 µg/L for 1,4-dioxane). Ten years after disposal, concentrations of 1,4-dioxane greater than 3 mg/L were measured at points more than 300 m from the site"--Abstract.
