Given the health hazards associated with toxic air contaminants, routine air testing is important in a variety of applications and environments. Whether for greenhouse gas and industrial stack emissions monitoring, or for maintaining air quality in buildings, indoor offices, vehicles, open environment, and other environments, detecting and measuring a wide range of airborne contaminants in a targeted and non-targeted manner is a necessary challenge.
Air analysis is subject to a broad set of regulatory requirements for sampling and testing different types of air including ambient, indoor and outdoor, workplace, and vehicle emissions, as well as industrial source emissions. As a result, sampling and sample introduction systems vary from method to method. Targeted analysis of volatile and semi-volatile organic compounds (VOCs and SVOCs) in air are typically performed using gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC/MS) instruments. Metals in air are traditionally measured using spectroscopy techniques like inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) or ICP-MS. When a comprehensive picture of sample components is needed, non-targeted high-resolution GC- and LC-quadrupole time-of-flight (Q-TOF) methods are used. Additionally, sample collection and introduction tools like thermal desorption (TD) and headspace (HS) play a critical role in air analysis as well.
With over 40 years of environmental analysis and regulatory expertise, Agilent offers air testing equipment encompassing instruments, chromatography workstations, consumables, services, and software designed to meet your needs for high-confidence analysis of air samples. When our renowned GC/MS solutions are paired with proven sample introduction products like thermal desorption (TD), we can help your lab perform efficient and cost-effective air sampling, testing, and data analysis while achieving lower detection limits.
