Popis: The project reported deals with the efficient and economic monitoring of volatile organic compounds in groundwater. The measuring system is based on a novel optical technique for online and in situ monitoring. Goal of the project is to demonstrate the sensor principle for an effective monitoring of chlorinated and polycyclic hydrocarbon target analytes and to test the measuring system in a field application. The so called EWALD sensor uses Evanescent Wave Attenuation with Laser Diodes. The analytes are detected sensitively and selectively by their fingerprint absorption in the mid-infrared.
