Abstract:
      A gas chromatography-mass spectrometry(GC-MS) was established for the determination of 53 semi-volatile organic compounds in solid wastes,based on microwave-assisted extraction combined with solid phase extraction(SPE) column cleanup.Extraction was carried out in a microwave extraction tank using 20 mL acetone-hexane (1∶1,by volume) as the extractant,with an extraction temperature of 100 ℃ and an extraction time of 15 min,then the extract was concentrated by nitrogen blowing.The analyte was purified by magnesium silicate solid phase extraction column and separated on a DB-5MS(30 m × 0.25 μm × 0.25 mm) capillary column,finally detected with electron bombardment ionization source(EI) in selected ion monitoring(SIM) mode and quantified by internal standard method.The results showed that there were good linear relationships for 53 semi-volatile organic compounds in the range of 0.2-5.0 mg/L,with their correlation coefficients(r) not less than 0.998.The limits of detection for typical solid waste ash and biochemical sludge samples were in the range of 0.002-0.015 mg/kg and 0.004-0.027 mg/kg,while the limits of quantitation were in the range of 0.008-0.060 mg/kg and 0.016-0.108 mg/kg,respectively.For two typical solid waste negative sample matrices,the average recoveries at three spiked levels of 0.5,1.0 and 2.0 mg/kg for ash sample ranged from 70.7% to 98.5%,with relative standard deviations(RSDs,n = 6) of 1.7%-14%,while the average recoveries for biochemical sludge sample ranged from 71.8% to 105%,with RSDs(n = 6) of 1.2%-15%.The method was applied to the analysis of solid waste samples from Miluo pesticide plant,in which seven semi-volatile organic compounds,i.e.phorate,fenitrothion,heptachlor,hexachlorobenzene,p,p'-DDE,p,p'-DDT and mirex with different concentrations were detected.This method is rapid,accurate,environmentally friendly and reliable,and low reagent consumption,which could meet the requirements for high throughput detection of 53 semi-volatile organic compounds in solid waste,and significantly improve the detection efficiency for semi-volatile organic compounds.
