✦ Synopsis

Continuous steam distillationcontinuous

liquid-liquid extraction was used for the isolation of phenols from water and the extract was analysed by capillary gas chromatography.

The recovery for a concentration range about 0.1-30 mg 1-r approaches 100% using acidification and strong salting of the water sample and a distillation-extraction time of 1.5 h. The detection limit of the method using splitless injection and glass capillary columns is approximately 10 pg 1-l of each phenol tested.
