Quantitative Determination of Fluorinated Alkyl Substances by Large-Volume-Injection Liquid Chromatography Tandem Mass SpectrometryCharacterization of Municipal Wastewaters
Open accessAbstract
A quantitative method was developed for the determination of fluorinated alkyl substances in municipal wastewater influents and effluents. The method consisted of centrifugation followed by large-volume injection (500 microL) of the supernatant onto a liquid chromatograph with a reverse-phase column and detection by electrospray ionization and tandem mass spectrometry. The fluorinated analytes studied include perfluoroalkyl sulfonates, fluorotelomer sulfonates, perfluorocarboxylates, and select fluorinated alkyl sulfonamides. Recoveries of the fluorinated analytes from wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) raw influents and final effluent were in the ranges of 82-100% and 86-100%, respectively. The lower limit of quantitation was 0.5 ng/L depending on the analyte. The method was applied to flow-proportional composites of raw influent and final effluent collected over a 24 h period from 10 WWTPs nationwide. Fluorinated alkyl substances were observed in wastewater at all treatment plants, and each plant exhibited unique distributions of fluorinated alkyl substances despite similarities in treatment processes. In 9 out of the 10 plants sampled, at least one class of fluorinated alkyl substances exhibited increased concentrations in the effluent as compared to the influent concentrations. In some instances, decreases in certain fluorinated analyte concentrations were observed and attributed to sorption to sludge.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
