Abstract:A novel method by solvent sublation-high performance liquid chromatography determination of phenol compounds in industrial wastewater has been developed. Nonylphenonl, octylphenonl, and bisphenol A in water samples was separated and enriched by solvent sublation and determined by high performance liquid chromatography in this paper. The effects of sublation solvent, pH of the solution, nitrogen flow rate and sublation time were optimized. The limits of detection were:0.03 μg/L(BPA),0.25 μg/L(OP), 0.21 μg/L(NP).The proposed method was used to determine water samples from petrochemical area,with the recoveries of 83% to 110%, and RSD of 4.2%-5.9%.
