Evaluation of direct aqueous injection method for analysis of chloroform in drinking water

A direct aqueous injection technique (DAI), employing a by-pass valve to vent water, and an electron capture detector, is compared with the purge method for measuring chloroform in drinking water. The DAI method gave consistently higher values. The reasons for, and method of reducing the discrepancy...
