Area of Science:

  • Environmental Chemistry
  • Analytical Chemistry

Background:

  • Hydrazine is a contaminant found in various environmental matrices.
  • Accurate quantification of hydrazine is crucial for environmental monitoring and risk assessment.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a simple, cost-effective, and reliable method for detecting and quantifying hydrazine in sludge samples.
  • To establish the applicability of the developed method for soil and other environmental matrices.

Main Methods:

  • Hydrazine derivatization to hydrazones using benzaldehyde.
  • High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) separation with a reversed-phase C-18 column.
  • Isocratic elution with a methanol-water mixture (95:5 v/v).
  • Detection of hydrazones using UV detection at 313 nm.
