ON <br /> ANALYTICAL METHODOLOGY <br /> BITEX (Benzene, Toluene, Ethyl Benzene, and Xylenes) by Purge & nap and <br /> GC-PID <br /> WATER - Method 602 or 8020 <br /> A 5 ml sample volume, or 5 ml of a suitable dilution, is purged on a <br /> suitable purge and trap system with helium. The purged sample is analyzed <br /> on a Gas Chromatograph equipped with a Photoionization Detector (PID). A <br /> packed column is used to separate the compounds. <br /> SOIL - Method 8020 <br /> A 10 gram, or other appropriate aliquot of soil, is weighed into a clean <br /> VOA vial. Soils received in brass core tubes are sampled by discarding 2-5 <br /> centimeters of soil from each end of the tubes (this is done to reduce the <br /> possibility of analyzing a portion of sail that has been exposed to sampling <br /> technique contamination). Equal aliquots of soil are then removed from <br /> each end of the tube and combined in the VOA vial. Soil in jars or bags <br /> IS <br /> aliquoted using a similar technique,appropriate me oEdmethansol,d isample <br /> ddedto <br /> _ surfaces. A 10 mn1, or other approp <br /> f the soil and the soil is shaken with the solvent. 100 ul of the extract, or <br /> a reduced aliquot or volume of a suitable dZution, is injected into 5 ml of <br /> laboratory blank water and analyzed by the same technique used for water <br /> samples. <br /> CHFwfiST ANAL'4iC-1..=SC-,4TCRU iNC <br />
