Abstract:
A study was conducted on a stretch of Tigris river crossing Baghdad city to determine the concentration of some chlorophenols pollutants. Aqueous samples were preliminary enriched about 500 times and the chlorophenols have determined using high performance liquid chromatography HPLC. Limits of detection LOD were (0.007-0.012 mg L(-1)), relative standard deviations RSD% were 2.4%-5.59% and relative recoveries were 51.06%-104.07%. The existence of chlorophenols in Tigris river was in the range 0.023-4.596 mg L(-1). The developed method suggested in this study can be applied for routine analysis and monitoring of chlorinated phenols in environmental aqueous samples.
