Abstract

The document gives general guidance for the sampling and analysis of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in air. It is applicable to ambient, indoor and workplace atmospheres. It is appropriate for the determination of a wide range of VOCs, including hydrocarbons, halogenated hydrocarbons, esters, glycol ethers, ketones and alcohols. A number of sorbents are recommended for the sampling of these VOCs, each sorbent having a different range of applicability. It is applicable to the measurement of airborne vapours of VOCs in a concentration range of approximately 0,5 µg/m₃ bis 100 mg/m₃ individual compound.
