The Collection and Analysis of Low Molecular Weight Carbonyl Compounds from Source Effluents

Abstract
Low molecular weight carbonyl compounds from a variety of source operations were collected in bisulfite solution and analyzed by a gas chromatographic procedure. Formaldehyde could not be determined by gas chromatography and was measured colorimetrically. Studies on the efficiency of collection of acetaldehyde, propionaldehyde, butraldehyde, and crotonaldehyde, along with acetone, meth-ylethyl ketone, and diethyl ketone were made in a laboratory aeration setup. Data on the concentration of these compounds in source effluents are presented.
