## Abstract Two systems have been developed which are suitable for the determination of sub parts per billion levels of organic contaminants in ambient air and soil gas. Gas samples are passed through an adsorbent where the contaminants are trapped. Following thermal desorption the contaminants are

β¦ Synopsis
A two-diemnsional gaschromatograph is described for the analysis of volatile compounds. The chromatographic system consists of two separate chromatographs linked together with an interface containing an intermediate trap. The trap is cooled with nitrogen (-150OC) and a cryogradient is created inside the trap enclosure. The sample is reinjected during controlled (chromatographic) conditions, using thermostated air. The sample components are eluted from the trap as narrow symmetrical peaks; theshapeand widthof the peakseluted do not noticeably affect the subsequent chromatography. The enrichment of n- butane in the trap is quantitative in the range lo-''g.
