[Studies on the method of measurement of odorants dissolved in water--the simplified head space method]
Abstract:
An improved and simplified Head Space Method was devised for measurement of the concentration of odorants dissolved in waste water, and this method was examined to determine whether it was applicable for this purpose or not. This method is taken into consideration the variableness of liquid concentration and of gas pressure resulting from the volatilization of odorants and aqueous vapor to the atmosphere. By this method, the constants of hydrogen sulfide, dimethylsulfide and trimethylamine were measured under various temperatures and pHs. As a result of comparison with the measured values obtained by the Stripping Method and those from the heretofore used Head Space Method, this method appeared to be fairly applicable.

Solid samples include a variety of substances, such as sediments from water bodies, soil, metals, and biological tissues. Two standard methods for extracting sediments from water bodies are grab sampling and piston coring. Grab sampling involves using a device to collect a discrete sediment sample from the bottom of a water body with minimal disturbance. Grab samples do not always represent the entire area due to...
