Abstract
for mixture B, respectively. The novel part of this study is that aqueous samples can be directly measured with one-step sample preparation and it comes with other advantages such as low volumes of sampling from batch bottles and also avoidance of high cost, relative to other analytical techniques. Therefore, this analytical method aims to facilitate the quantification of various aromatic hydrocarbons in laboratory batch samples and can be used as a routine monitoring tool for biological degradation processes of these 11 prevalent contaminants.
