Abstract
A passive dosimeter is described in which the collection medium is a porous polymer contained in a removable element which is analysed by thermal desorption/gas chromatography. Details of the laboratory evaluation of the device for measuring atmospheric concentrations of acrylonitrile are presented, together with results obtained in a manufacturing chemical plant environment. Application of the dosimeter to the measurement of other organic pollutants is also considered and automation of the analysis is discussed.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
