Description
This application describes a GC method for the identification and quantification of light hydrocarbons as Methane, Ethane, Ethylene and Propane dissolved in water samples after reservoirs contamination. The monitoring of gas content in water is used to assess the environmental impact of fracking procedures. The analytical method involves the sampling of dissolved gases via static headspace extraction and an external calibration with clean water samples saturated with a gas standard mixture.| Market: | Environmental |
