What is Extraction of Hydrocarbon Contamination from Soils Using Accelerated Solvent Extraction about?
Accelerated solvent extraction was studied as a method for the extraction of hydrocarbon contamination from wet and dry soils. Temperatures from 125 to 2008C and six different solvents were investigated. Nonpolar solvents could not achieve complete recovery from wet soils at the temperatures studied. Optimum conditions were found to be 1758C with dichloromethane-acetone (1:1, v / v) with 8 min heat-up time and 5 min static time. Quantitative recoveries for diesel range organics (DROs) and waste oil organics (WOOs) were obtained using the optimized conditions. The recovery of DROs and WOOs from three matrices at two concentrations (5 and 2000 mg / kg) averaged 115%. These results show that accelerated solvent extraction can generate results comparable to those obtained using Soxhlet or sonication.
