In this podcast we will be discussing how analytical traps concentrate VOCs through the Purge and Trap process and inside the trap.  Our guest speaker, Jamie Brown, Senior R&D Scientist at MilliporeSigma, was interviewed for this podcast.

The podcast covers the following:

  • How adsorbents work in Purge and Trap?
  • Characteristics of adsorbents
  • What happens if adsorbents are too weak or to long?
  • How VOCs are trapped in the adsorbents?
  • What adsorbents work best for VOCs and Purge and Trap analysis?
  • What trap should be used for different classes of VOCs?
  • Conditioning the trap tips
  • How to know when it is time to change a trap
