Abstract
Extractions of aromatic compounds from standard reference sediments we re performed with a focused microwave (FMW) open-vessel system. The re sults obtained show a good extraction efficiency (around 85%) when com pared to the certified values and to the results obtained by conventio nal Soxhlet extractions. The influence of the couple time/power is dis cussed. The advantages of the FMW extraction technique for the recover y of aromatic compounds include the small amount of solvent required f or performing the extraction (a few dozens of millilitres) and the dra stic decrease in the extraction time (t = 10 min).
