Abstract
The EPA Method 625 (US Environmental Protection Agency), which determi nes semivolatile organic compounds extractable with methylene chloride in waste water by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), was m odified and metrologically certified. Analytical ranges were found for each of the components; errors of measurement and error control stand ards were calculated. The procedure involves the use of HP 5971A and 5 972A GC-MS instruments and is intended for determining 60 or 40 compon ents in waste or potable water, respectively.
