| Summary: | accelerated solvent extractions were 102% of the certified alternatives to classical soxhlet extraction of petroleum analysis. Costs associated with accelerated solvent as high pressure solvent extraction. Utilization of Attempts have been made in recent years to find acceptable certified reference material was first used to investigate contaminated sediments. One such method that is very extraction are 62% of soxhlet in our laboratory. Sample extraction time was shortened from 24 hours field bioremediation test facility. Recoveries for greater influence on recovery than pressure. Extraction higher than other temperatures as determined by the ANOVA indicated that for n-alkanes and aromatics, temperature had a minimizing solvent consumption up to 87%. Work was performed on a commercially available accelerated solvent extractor. A optimum method for petroleum hydrocarbon contaminated per sample to 12 minutes. pressures facilitate a quick extraction process while promising is accelerated solvent extraction also referred to recoveries at different pressures were statistically the same, while recoveries at 40'C and I 00 C were significantly sediments. Once this was determined, the method was verified standard deviations. ANOVA analysis of the data also the different variable parameter settings and to determine an traditional organic solvents at elevated temperatures and using another certified reference soil and samples from a values with standard deviations 28% less than certified |
