Abstract
The method of ethylene glycol determination in flue gases is described . Glycol under-goes sorption either on solid adsorbents such as silica gel or activated carbon, or in bubbler absorbers filled with water. W ater is the best for desorption of glycol from silica gel; in the case of activated carbon methylene chloride doped with 5% of methyl alcoho l is recommended. Limit of determination is 10-20 mg m(-3) depending o n the sorbent used and the volume of air drawn through the sorbing tra in.
