This note examines the Determination of Hydrocarbons in Environmental Samples with Spectrum Two FT-IR.
Compressed air sampling is very essential from an environmental point of view, wherein it is required to know all the environmental parameters such as Sox and Nox. These parameters are very important to determine the air quality.
The concentration of dispersed oil and grease is an important parameter for water quality and safety. Oil and grease in water can cause surface films and shoreline deposits leading to environmental degradation, and can induce human health risks when discharge.
The FT-IR spectrum of biodiesel takes only a few seconds to measure with a diamond ATR accessory, and contains readily, accessible information about the extent of unsaturation in the fatty acid chains.
The need for sustainable fuel sources has led to an increasing global emphasis on fuels produced from renewable, biological sources. Biodiesel is one such fuel, and consists of fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) produced from vegetable oils or animal fats.

Attenuated total reflectance (ATR) techniques are well established in FT-IR spectroscopy for the direct measurement of solid and liquid samples without sample preparation. The technique requires good contact between the sample and a crystal made from a material which transmits IR radiation and has a high refractive index.
The Atmospheric Vapor Compensation (AVC) function on the Spectrum™ Two and Frontier Series addresses the difficult task of reducing the effects of unwanted atmospheric absorptions in sample spectra.
Zinc selenide is a very useful material for infrared sampling optics, since it is transparent over most of the mid-infrared range, fairly hard and durable and resistant to water and most chemicals. Consequently it is widely used for attenuated total reflectance (ATR) and liquid transmission cells.
