A measurement campaign was carried out during September 1999 in the Lausanne area to measure the contribution of wastewater treatment plants to the emission of volatile organic compounds in the area. The concentrations of monocyclic aromatic hydrocarbons over a wastewater treatment plant were monitored by differential optical absorption spectroscopy (DOAS) and gas chromatography (GC-FID). A flame ionization detector (FID) was used for monitoring the overall concentration of non-methane hydrocarbons (NMHC). A comparison is presented of the concentrations of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, xylenes, 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene, and phenol over the wastewater treatment plant as measured by DOAS and GC-FID. |
